Cryptocurrency has seen a spur in activity since the beginning of August. While the month mirrored July, with its significant price dip, it has persevered to reinstate a bullish market in the past few weeks. Subsequently, Bitcoin which shared most of the limelight, surpassed $59K catching market attention yet again.&nbsp; 
Amid other cryptocurrencies showing mixed signals, BTC sparked bullish candles in the last 24 hours. The cryptocurrency’s daily price chart shows Bitcoin trading at $59,467 in the beginning hours of August 13.&nbsp;

At the time of writing, BTC was trading at $60,830 with a 2.59% daily surge as per CMC <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">data</a>.&nbsp; 
Notably, this price action has coincided with several whale movements in the past few days. According to market analyst “Ali Charts”’s recent X <a href="https://x.com/ali_charts/status/1823281011934822713" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">post</a>, in the past week, multiple Bitcoin whales have sold over 10K BTC tokens worth nearly $600 million.
