$1 billion Bitcoin mystery stuns cryptocurrency market: What happened?
According to the latest on-chain data, the crypto market has seen large transfers of Bitcoin over the past few days, with the latest episode being the shift of $1 billion worth of BTC; the funds were moved from a number of unknown addresses to brand new wallets in batches of 2,000 BTC. The purpose and origin of these transactions remain unclear, although one sender address potentially links to Fidelity Custody, a major crypto custodian. As a reminder, this year, Fidelity introduced its spot Bitcoin ETF, FBTC. The significant transfers might indicate an internal reorganization of assets, or they could signal the beginning of a period of positive flows into Bitcoin ETFs and rising demand for BTC, which could potentially boost the crypo’s price. At the moment of writing, BTC is trading at $64,883, up 1.79% over the past 24 hours, per CoinMarketCap.
Shiba Inu (SHIB) on verge of becoming profitable again
Data provided by IntoTheBlock shows that 50% of Shiba Inu (SHIB) holders are currently profitable at a price of $0.00001718, suggesting a potential for profit growth if prices continue to rise. Also, 73% of SHIB’s large holders are whales, which means that these market players could significantly influence price fluctuations via their buying and selling actions. The price movements of Shiba Inu are closely tied to the overall cryptocurrency market, especially Bitcoin, due to their strong correlation. Despite some conflicting signals about SHIB’s prospects, there are signs of growing demand on trading platforms, highlighted by a substantial increase of 128.19% in bid-ask volume imbalance. Investors should keep an eye on the important price level of $0.00001700, as surpassing this threshold may trigger a more robust upward movement and enhance profitability for SHIB investors.
