Bitcoin Whales Add 47,000 BTC During 24% Decline as Mid-Sized Holders Sell More, CryptoQuant Says
According to ChainCatcher citing CryptoQuant, wallets holding more than 1,000 BTC added about 47,000 BTC during Bitcoin’s latest 24% decline. Wallets holding 1,000 to 10,000 BTC accounted for 43,700 BTC of that increase, while wallets holding 100 to 1,000 BTC shed 50,500 BTC and those holding 10 to 100 BTC sold 14,400 BTC.
Bitcoin’s 30-day apparent demand fell to about -284,000 BTC, its weakest level since April 2025. Net realized losses were recorded on 14 of the 16 days since October 29, totaling about 84,000 BTC. CryptoQuant said short-term holders, ETFs and mid-sized wallets were selling faster than whales could absorb the supply.
