Bitcoin whales move $230mln to exchanges, yet BTC holds range – Why?
Bitcoin's price remained stable around $87,700 despite significant whale activity on December 25th. A long-dormant whale moved 400 BTC ($34.92M) to OKX, while BlackRock transferred 2,292 BTC ($199.8M) to Coinbase. These movements, alongside five consecutive days of outflows from U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETFs, heightened market uncertainty. Open interest declined, indicating reduced leverage and cautious trading. BTC continues to consolidate between $86,000 and $93,500. A breakdown below $86,000 could trigger a significant decline, while a break above $93,500 would invalidate the bearish outlook. Market sentiment remains defensive despite underlying bullish leverage positions.
