Medium-high holders (10-100 BTC):
Significantly increased their holdings by 15,463 coins, the largest increase across all levels, with a single-day increase of 41 coins on July 2, continuing the trend of proactive accumulation, possibly related to institutional funds diversifying through medium addresses.
Large and ultra-large holders (100+ BTC):
Large holders (whales) decreased their holdings by 6,502 coins, mainly affected by a single-day crash of 8,625 coins on July 1, possibly due to short-term portfolio adjustments or compliance sell-offs by some institutions; ultra-large holders (humpback whales) decreased by 6,445 coins, but saw a surge of 8,460 coins in a single day on July 1, indicating high-frequency trading behavior by ultra-large institutions and intense long-short battles.
