Whales moving a lot of BTC to exchanges to sell

He has tweeted that the majority of incoming transactions to crypto exchanges are being made by large Bitcoin holders, aka whales. The top 10 deposit transfers have brought 90% of the overall volume in one hour.

However, Bitcoin manages to hold above the $60,000 level.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin is not remaining for a long time on exchanges; it is being withdrawn by investors to cold wallets for long-term storage. And by now, it has reached a three-year low of 2,449,773.473 BTC.
