## Bitcoin Whale Watch: More Holders Exceed 1000 BTC The number of entities holding at least 1000 Bitcoin (BTC) has recently increased, signaling potential shifts in market dynamics. According to a Coindesk report, this cohort grew to 1436 last week, indicating renewed accumulation by larger holders. This group's size had peaked at over 1500 following Trump's presidential election in 2024, but subsequently declined to around 1300 in October. The recent uptick suggests renewed confidence or strategic positioning among these significant Bitcoin holders. ## Accumulation Trends: 100-1000 BTC Holders Lead the Charge While entities holding between 1000 and 10,000 BTC show moderate accumulation, the strongest buying activity is observed among holders of 100-1000 BTC, suggesting a broadening base of investment. Notably, holders of less than 1 BTC are also accumulating, indicating growing retail participation in the Bitcoin market. These trends are important to watch for overall market sentiment. ```
