Bitcoin (BTC) is experiencing market volatility, attempting to surpass the $95,000 resistance level. Amidst this, a major Bitcoin whale awoke after six years of inactivity.

Whale Activity Sparks Market Speculation

According to a post from Lookonchain, a whale wallet dormant for 6 years suddenly became active, depositing 500 BTC worth $46.87 million into Coinbase Prime. Although the intention behind this significant deposit is unknown, it often signals a potential intent to sell, considering that Bitcoin was worth around $7,000 six years ago.

Market Implications and Stakeholders' Perspective

Analysts speculate that Bitcoin has entered its distribution phase, and the whale might have plans to sell. Meanwhile, some stakeholders remain optimistic. NBA legend Scottie Pippen claims the current price movement is a 'bear trap' and advises against selling.

Skeptics' Position and Future Outlook

While the whale's exact intentions remain uncertain, the market is keeping a close watch on his potential moves. Another large holder recently became active after 11 years.

So far, Bitcoin whale activity is garnering significant attention and discussion, highlighting its impact on the cryptocurrency market.
