Countdown to Bitcoin all-time high: Samson Mow drops hint
Following the largest crypto's astonishing rally, Jan3 CEO and prominent crypto entrepreneur Samson Mow dropped a hint at when to expect Bitcoin's next all-time high in a recent X post. In Mow's opinion, BTC could reach a new record in its value before the halving, which is set to take place in April this year. The rationale behind such a bold suggestion is Bitcoin's price behavior yesterday, with BTC's value reaching $64,000, making it only 10% short of its all-time peak. Additionally, the CEO noted that in case Bitcoin does break its previous ATH before the halving event, it "will put to rest" the idea of market cycles, as Bitcoin, due to its unpredictable nature, "could just do anything at any time." At the moment of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $61,853, down 1.95% over the past 24 hours, per CoinMarketCap.

1.2 billion DOGE shoveled to Binance and Robinhood - Sell-off coming?
According to recent data provided by Whale Alert, two enormous chunks of Dogecoin, carrying 699,999,999 DOGE and 500,000,000 DOGE, were shoveled to major cryptocurrency trading platforms Binance and Robinhood. Combined, these DOGE lumps made up 1.2 billion dog-themed tokens. The first transfer was worth $53,065,006, and the second one was evaluated at $53,065,006 in fiat. Many popular altcoins are now rallying on the tailcoats of Bitcoin's surge, and so is Dogecoin, which skyrocketed by more than 42%, hitting $0.12. Thus, the dog-themed crypto could be facing a sell-off, as big whales are starting to transfer their DOGE holdings to exchanges in order to lock in profits. Currently, Dogecoin is changing hands at $0.1245, down 6.64% over the past 24 hours, per CoinMarketCap's data.
