At time of writing, Bitcoin continues a downtrend dating back to Sunday, having dropped from a peak near $25,000 to capitulating the $21,000 level late on Friday. BTC is currently down 7.31% and priced at $21,196.
Crypto analytics firm Santiment recently observed that the number of wallets that hold between 100 and 10,000 Bitcoin has increased to the highest level since June.
“The amount of Bitcoin addresses holding between 100 to 10,000 BTC ($2.3 million to $233 million) has reached its largest quantity since June 11th. We look to this tier of large addresses as confidence from large active holders, and this increase is encouraging.”
