tldr; A dormant Bitcoin wallet from 2011 holding 80,000 BTC has reactivated, liquidating 20,000 BTC worth $2.4 billion and transferring funds to Galaxy Digital. This activity has sparked fears of a market correction, drawing comparisons to the 2024 Mt. Gox-triggered sell-off. While the transactions suggest potential selling, analysts note differences such as professional management and stronger institutional demand, which may mitigate market impact. Bitcoin’s price has dipped slightly after reaching a new all-time high of over $123,000.

Every month we get one of these posts.
„Big whale wallet moved its funds!“, „Dormant wallet with thousands of Bitcoin wakes up!“, „Government/law enforcement/settlement wallet with millions in Bitcoin set to dump soon!“.
I’ve seen the same thing for the last 8 years.
And more than 6 times out of 10, we end up going up and not down.
I’m starting to feel like either these stories or these wallets are pushed by panicking whales shorting, and feeling a squeeze coming up, and this being a last ditch effort to not get squeezed.

Name one reason why someone should sell a big stake of Bitcoin.
Galaxy Digital does a lot more than trading Crypto.
