Bitcoin’s calm before the whale storm: $150B in gains on the line

Bitcoin whales hold $150B in unrealized profits as wallet numbers grow - raising flags over potential sell pressure.
Whale wallets multiply
The whale pod isn’t just getting richer — it’s getting larger.
Over the past two months, more than 100 new entities with 1,000+ BTC have emerged, pushing the total whale count near 1,700. This uptick comes as prices rally and major players reposition.
Whether these are new deep-pocketed believers or old hands doubling down, the outcome is the same: whales are circling in greater numbers.

It’s a sign of conviction, yes, but also a strategic setup. More whales mean more market-moving potential when the tide shifts. The quiet accumulation phase appears over; now it’s a question of timing.
