According to the data provided by CryptoQuant, the holdings of Bitcoin whales have now approached a new all-time high. This could be interpreted as an "undoubtedly" optimistic signal for the largest cryptocurrency. Whales currently hold around 670,000 BTC. 

Meanwhile, an ancient Bitcoin whale from 2009 recently extended their selling spree amid the recent BTC rally.
