The whale began accumulating <a href="https://u.today/306676-btc-support-might-halt-bitcoins-decline-to-60000-heres-how" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BTC</a> on Aug. 24, 2023 and withdrew 8,500 BTC worth $279 million from Binance at an average price of $32,854. Withdrawals from cryptocurrency exchanges show an intention to buy, but deposits to cryptocurrency exchanges may signal an intent to sell.
According to the information provided, the whale owned 8,500 BTC as of Aug. 24, 2023. As Bitcoin's price increased, the whale deposited or sold 4,300 BTC worth $183 million into Binance at an average price of $43,534. A few hours ago, the whale deposited or sold 100 BTC worth $7.22 million into Binance again to take profits.
The whale currently owns 4,300 BTC, which is worth $313 million at current rates, and has a total profit of $217 million.
With a massive stash of 4,300 BTC left, questions remain about the whale's next move. Will they cash out and take their winnings, or will they continue to hold on in anticipation of even higher valuations? Only time will tell.
