Within hours, Whale Alert spotted six large BTC transactions with a combined value of nearly $1 billion. Three transactions moved Bitcoin from wallets of unknown origins to crypto exchanges. One transaction shifted BTC from a crypto custody firm to an unknown wallet while another transaction relocated Bitcoin from a crypto exchange to a custodial company. Another transaction moved BTC from an exchange to a wallet of unknown origins.

At time of writing, Bitcoin has lost the $20,000 level and is currently trading at $18,526.
