[CryptoQuant Analyst Says Bitcoin Whale Balances Decline, No Significant Buying Activity] CryptoQuant analyst Julio Moreno stated that Bitcoin whales have not been significantly buying assets recently. Data shows that most whale-related figures are influenced by exchanges, as exchanges concentrate large amounts of Bitcoin into a few addresses, causing the balances of these addresses to increase, which superficially appears as if whales are accumulating.
