<p>The recent downturn in the cryptocurrency market is shifting direction, with significant Bitcoin accumulation by whales at lower prices. The market saw a rebound, particularly on Friday, with Bitcoin leading the charge and climbing nearly 5%.</p> 
<p>The Bitcoin price surged over $62,000 during morning trading in the U.S. session.&nbsp; This uptick came after the release of the U.S. April jobs report, which was more subdued than anticipated, alleviating fears of imminent interest rate hikes. This surge in Bitcoin’s price has positively influenced investor sentiment.</p> 
<p>Let’s look into a more detailed way of how the trajectory of BTC may change following the recent change in market sentiments.</p>

<p>To maintain the momentum of this rally, it’s important to avoid an excessive rise in fear of missing out (FOMO) beyond its current level.</p> 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-whales-are-bullish-on-btc-strong"><strong>Whales Are Bullish On BTC</strong></h3> 
<p>As per the data obtained from CryptoQuant, whales have snapped up over 47,500 Bitcoins within 24 hours. These significant players secured their holdings at an average price of $59,000 per Bitcoin, strategically capitalizing on the market’s downturn with an investment totaling $2.8 Billion.</p>

<p>Keeping tabs on these whales is a savvy strategy, as they’re usually in sync with the market’s most influential traders. A key metric is the average Bitcoin volume per transaction heading into derivative exchanges.</p> 
<p>Moreover, with the market experiencing a minor slump, the average <a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2024/05/02/microstrategy-orange-a-bitcoin-based-decentralized-id-platform/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bitcoin </a>volume moving into these exchanges is currently 3.8 BTC.</p> 
<p>Whales are known for their early moves, opting to go long in anticipation of a price surge, in contrast to retail investors who often enter the fray at the zenith, typically with smaller Bitcoin volumes.</p> 
<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Conclusion</strong></h4> 
<p>The broader crypto market is rebounding after whales accumulated 47,500 Bitcoins at an average of $59,000 each, totaling $2.8 Billion, signaling a strategic “buy the dip” move.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>This accumulation led to a market surge, with Bitcoin’s price jumping nearly 5% to over $62,000. Traders on Binance shifted from short to long positions, reflecting a change in sentiment.</p> 
<p>The market’s recovery, particularly on Friday, suggests a positive shift in investor confidence and a potential trend reversal after the recent downturn.</p> 
<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Technical levels:</strong></h4>
