Bitcoin bulls made a comeback this week, surprising many investors after facing downward movements since the start of the month. Yesterday, BTC hit a five-week high of $67,700. In the past week, it surged 10.33%, and on a monthly timeline, it increased by 4%. The trading volume is up by 37%.
Positive ETF flows and new CPI data triggered the Bitcoin price surge. Additionally, new interest from big firms in various Bitcoin <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/spot-bitcoin-etfs-thrives-back-as-may-inflows-offset-april-outflows/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ETFs</a> has been a contributing factor. Fears around sell-offs during the halving period are losing strength.
Whale activity has also played a part. Recent reports highlight notable activity among Bitcoin whales, indicating a surge in accumulation despite the cryptocurrency’s recent price increase. A&nbsp; prominent Bitcoin whale identified by the wallet address “15cHR…cnHxv” acquired 255 Bitcoin at an average price of approximately $65,116.
With this recent accumulation, the total holdings of the whale surged to around 23.09K Bitcoin, equating to an estimated profit of nearly $986 million.
In addition, there were two other significant transactions. Wallet address “33ds4…Q1yCc,” moved a substantial amount of 2,400 Bitcoin from the Coinbase exchange. Simultaneously, an unidentified whale, marked by the wallet address “bc1qv…m4jpf,” transferred 770 Bitcoins from <a href="https://www.gemini.com/india" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Gemini</a>.
Meanwhile, currently, Bitcoin is <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/peter-schiff-calls-bitcoin-dead-highlights-silvers-outperformance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">trading</a> at $67,130.69 with a minor surge of 0.01%. Bitcoin’s dominance is currently 54.37%, an increase of 0.03% over the day. The market seems very slow today, with the global crypto market cap at $2.43T, a 0.07% decrease over the last day.
