Market data company Santiment has reported that large investors or whales do not stop accumulating Bitcoin.
According to the company's analysts, large Bitcoin investors own 2.2% of the total supply of the leading crypto.
It is not surprising the amount of Bitcoins in the hands of whales is increasing, as the number of such addresses has reached an 11-month high, with May last year being the last time we found ourselves in a similar situation.
They have reported through the company's official Twitter account:
"The percentage of Bitcoin's supply held by whale addresses with 100k or more $BTC has risen from 0.76% 11 weeks ago, to 2.20% today, an 11-month high."
