Despite small wallet sell-offs, larger investors or institutions continue to accumulate BTC. Wallets holding 1,000 or more BTC have seen an increase in volume recently, reflecting a bullish accumulation pattern.
Bitcoin's exchange netflow indicates a significant negative volume, reaching its highest since December 2023. This suggests more BTC is being withdrawn from exchanges than deposited, indicating ongoing accumulation despite small sell-offs.
