$60 million in Bitcoin leaves Coinbase Bitcoin Satoshi-era whales come back to life Data shared by the prominent blockchain sleuth Whale Alert, which tracks down large cryptocurrency movements and then shares the details on its website and X account, has detected a large BTC withdrawal from the largest cryptocurrency exchange by volumes operating in the USA – Coinbase. This withdrawal contained almost sixty million US dollars in the Bitcoin equivalent.

This amount of Bitcoin was valued at $59,303,436 at the time when the transaction was made. This tweet triggered an active discussion in the comment section as crypto enthusiasts began saying that whales likely have begun to accumulate the pioneer cryptocurrency. An X user, who calls himself a crypto analyst, stated: “oh great, another whale just played hide and seek with their #btc. 59 million bucks to an unknown wallet? Classic.” He warned other commentators: “remember, not every transaction is a signal—some are just noise in this circus.” While this transaction may seem like accumulation, earlier today, the on-chain data aggregator CryptoQuant tweeted that whales are likely to be making a big Bitcoin sell-off on Coinbase Institutional at the moment. The X post stated: “Over the past month, the premium recovered significantly, but is now dropping again — aligning with the recent BTC price correction.” Their analyst @abramchart wrote on his X account that since the Bitcoin price is lower on Coinbase Institutional than on other exchanges, “this indicates clear selling pressure from US investors.” After the aforementioned tweet, Whale Alert reported that an anonymous cryptocurrency whale transferred 2,107 Bitcoins (equating to $197,736,862) to a wallet belonging to Coinbase Institutional. This transaction could potentially end up as a sell-off.

The latter shoveled 2,343 BTC valued at $221.7 million to a new blockchain address. This occurred after the Bitcoin price plunged below the $95,000 level.
