The cryptocurrency market continues to experience volatility, even as U.S. markets were closed for the holiday. Recent regulatory actions have added uncertainty. A significant event was the movement of 40,000 BTC by one of the oldest Bitcoin whales, who had been dormant since 2011. These assets, valued at approximately $4.5 billion, were transferred to unknown addresses.
