Bitcoin Drops to $95K, XRP Plunges 10%
Corrections were "inevitable" owing to significant leverage, according to Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz's recent warning. He remains adamant, nevertheless, that Bitcoin will recoup its $100,000 valuation in due time, U.Today shares.
Despite the recent price drop, whales are still adding to their Bitcoin holdings. Six new wallets quickly removed 1,110 BTC from the Binance exchange, as reported by the business.
Many market watchers are worried that Bitcoin is overbought, but Matthew Sigel, VanEck's head of digital asset analysis, recently pointed out that has happened before.
Whales Accumulate Bitcoin Amid Corrections
"While you’re selling, someone else is buying. Take a moment to think—are you smarter than those accumulating thousands, or even tens of thousands, of Bitcoin in custodial wallets?" Ki Young Ju of CryptoQuant recently stated in an online post.
"You're right that Bitcoin is currently 28% above its 50-day moving average, and that's high. But in prior cycles we routinely hit 40%+ and stayed there," he stated in a recent social media post.
