Breaking Signal! Bitcoin Mega-Whales Frenziedly Accumulating, the $80,000 Level May Ignite a New Bull Market
On April 25, the price of Bitcoin once again moved close to the $80,000 key threshold, as the market stews over a major turnaround. On-chain data shows that whale funds are accelerating their entry, sweeping up and hoarding coins, and a historic bull market signal has quietly appeared.
1. Mega-Whales at Full Power, $3.17 Billion BTC Swept Up in 30 Days
According to Santiment data, the core whale group holding 10–10,000 BTC has cumulatively increased its holdings by 40,967 BTC since April 10, with a total value of approximately $3.17 billion—buying pressure is rare.
• Historical pattern: The “chip” structure in which whales concentrate their purchases and retail investors take small profits is often the strongest bull market signal, indicating abundant medium- to long-term upward momentum.
• Market status: BTC surged as high as $79,327, and has since pulled back to around $77,390; over the past 30 days, the increase has reached 8.6%, and the trend of volatile upward movement is clear.
2. Institutional + Sentiment Resonance, Conditions for a Broad Rally Have Matured
1. Accelerated institutional inflows: Bitwise Europe Research Director states clearly that institutional allocation demand has recently surged significantly. ETF funds continue to record net inflows, and professional capital is strongly eager to rush to accumulate.
2. Sentiment shifting from fear to FOMO: Market sentiment has switched from “extreme pessimism” to “strong FOMO (fear of missing out),” but the overall sentiment is still within the fear range—meaning the market has not overheated yet, and there is still plenty of room for upside.
3. $80,000 as the key breakout point: Once Bitcoin effectively holds above $80,000, it will fully activate the market’s enthusiasm for going long, attract a massive amount of incremental capital, and open up upside space for the next round of bull market rallies.
3. Conclusion: The Bull Market May Restart; Cherish Low-Position Holdings
At present, the market shows three layers of positive signals—whales locking in, institutions adding positions, and sentiment warming—while Bitcoin is in a critical buildup period before the bull market starts.
History will not simply repeat itself, but it will “rhyme” with something similar—when whales are frenziedly accumulating at low levels, and the key threshold is right within reach, this time, the spark of the bull market may be reignited once again.
