Santiment: Large holders have re-accumulated nearly 5,000 bitcoins in the past week, and the market performance may improve in the second half of the month

According to Santiment's analysis, wallets holding more than 10 bitcoins have experienced several key turning points in the past six months, with a slight sell-off from mid-February to early March exacerbating the crypto market's recent decline. However, since March 3, these large wallets have re-stocked nearly 5,000 bitcoins, while retail investors are panicking. The data chart shows several key points in time: large holders started hoarding at the beginning of the bull market on October 12 last year; hoarding was suspended during the holiday drop on December 26; hoarding resumed on January 12, the week before Trump's inauguration (when Bitcoin hit a record high of $109,000); selling began on February 19; and hoarding again on March 3, when retail sentiment was at its most pessimistic. Mr. Santiment said that while prices had not yet reacted to big-ticket buying, if these key stakeholders continued to hoard, the market could perform better in the second half of March than the seven-week "bloodbath" that followed bitcoin's record high.
