Bitcoin Market Sees Whale Activity Surge
Fresh data reveals a major institutional move in early 2026 crypto markets. The latest blockchain intelligence shows a heavyweight investor purchased 22,305 BTC last week, representing a significant $2.13 billion investment at current market rates.
Strategic Reserves Expansion
- Total holdings now reach 709,715 BTC after latest purchase
- Portfolio value hits $53.92 billion at current pricing
- Average purchase price settles around $95,284 per BTC
- Overall cost basis drops to $75,979 per BTC
Notably, this large-scale accumulation comes during a critical post-Bitcoin-ETF approval phase. Market analysts suggest institutions are building strategic positions during price correction periods, echoing the institutional accumulation patterns observed in late 2023.
