Data shows Bitcoin’s largest holders reaccumulating coins after a period of heavy distribution. Data indicates that whale balances have turned higher following the sharpest sell-off since early 2023, while the mid-sized holders continue to reduce exposure.

Key takeaways:

  • -Whale addresses added 46,000 BTC this week, turning the one-year net change positive for the first time since Q4 2025.

  • -Dolphin addresses, including ETFs and treasury entities, cut holdings further to 589,000 BTC, extending a multi-month slowdown in demand.

  • -Dolphin flows have dominated price impact this cycle, but whale accumulation has historically preceded key rallies.
