🐳🟢🐳 13.45 million BTC are now in the hands of giants — and the market is becoming increasingly illiquid.

🔥🐋🔥Amid April's volatility, a silent movement is shaping the foundation of the next Bitcoin cycle.$BTC
As the price stabilizes above $83,000, the largest market players — wallets holding between 10 and 10,000 BTC — have reached a record accumulation: 13.45 million bitcoins.
This represents 67.77% of the total circulating supply.
More than 53,652 BTC have been added in less than four weeks, revealing a long-term conviction that contrasts with the daily market noise.

🐋 Whales and sharks accumulate — and the market shrinks
According to Santiment, the accumulation trend began to accelerate in March after stabilizing during February.
💥 In April, data shows a graphical intensification of holding behavior, with the vertical green bars representing large wallet inflows.
This concentration reflects strategic movements by private holders, excluding large institutional custodians.
💥And the impact goes beyond the numbers:
the more BTC is locked in large wallets, the lower the net supply — and the greater the upside pressure.💥

💥📈💥 Price and accumulation in sync: a dance of conviction
Data shows a direct correlation between accumulation by large players and the price stability of BTC.
• From March 22 to April 18:
💥• +53.6k BTC accumulated
💥• BTC traded between $75,000 and $95,000
💥• Last quote: $85,167.58
Even with fluctuations in the rest of the crypto market, Bitcoin showed resilience — and the big players did not back down.
✨This synchronicity is one of the strongest signs of institutional conviction in a consolidation phase.

💤 Locked supply, liquidity evaporating — and retail still sleeps
With 67.77% of the total Bitcoin supply now in the hands of whales and sharks, the real market liquidity is decreasing.
This has three direct implications:
💥 Less BTC available on exchanges
💥 Lower capacity for sudden sell-off (dump)
💥 Higher likelihood of supply squeezes at new demand peaks
🙅♂️. The consequence? When retail wakes up, the price may already be much higher.

✨🧾✨ ETFs signal institutional resurgence.🧐
On April 16, 2025, Bitcoin ETFs recorded a daily inflow of $106.90 million, with no outflow.
Main inflows:
💥• IBIT (iShares): $81.00 million
💥• FBTC (Fidelity): $25.90 million
💥• GBTC and ARKB: no movement on the day
The total assets under management (AUM) of Bitcoin ETFs reached $97.71 billion, marking a clear reversal after weeks of outflows, reinforcing the thesis that smart money is quietly returning to the game.
⸻
✨🙅♂️✨ The message behind the silence: conviction
These movements are not short bets — they are structured positions.
Whales and sharks' behavior reveals:
💥• Long-term macro view
💥• Technical reading of stability
💥• Bet on dollar depreciation and real scarcity
🐳 And while most of the market remains volatile, these agents are literally buying time — and position.
⸻
✨🙅♂️✨Conclusion: The price of Bitcoin may seem static.
But beneath the surface, the blocks of the new cycle are already being assembled.
💥Whales and sharks do not move by chance.
💥They accumulate when the market hesitates.
💥And they disappear when it awakens.
13.45 million BTC under concentrated control is not just statistics.
It's a map of what's to come.🙅♂️
While retail awaits a new breakout, the giants are already positioned for it.
