According to a recent tweet published by Whale Alert blockchain tracking service, a massive chunk of Bitcoin was moved between anonymous cryptocurrency wallets – 26,139 BTC. This amount of the flagship cryptocurrency is evaluated at a whopping $1,325,616,919 in fiat.

The reasons for this move are unclear, however, it could be either a whale reshuffling his cryptocurrency riches between his wallets or an OTC deal.
In the meantime, Bitcoin has seen a 1.74% decline over the past two days. On Friday, the drop has constituted almost 1% but it was followed by a slight growth, taking the leading digital currency <a href="https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/BTCUSD/">back above the $51,000</a> price level.
