Whale

In Web3, a Whale is an individual or entity that holds a massive quantity of a specific cryptocurrency, giving them the power to influence market prices through large trades.Whale Watching—tracking the on-chain movement of these large wallets—is a popular strategy for identifying accumulation or distribution phases. In 2026, "Institutional Whales" (such as sovereign wealth funds and corporate treasuries) have replaced early adopters as the primary market movers. This tag explores wallet tracking, liquidity impact, and whale sentiment analysis.

Bitcoin Hyper Becomes Viral After Whales Buy $150K in Just 7 Days

Bitcoin Hyper Becomes Viral After Whales Buy $150K in Just 7 Days

The post Bitcoin Hyper Becomes Viral After Whales Buy $150K in Just 7 Days appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin may be cooling off after hitting record highs, but the real fireworks are happening elsewhere. A new crypto project, Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER), is taking center stage with one of the most talked-about crypto presales in 2025. In just a short time, it has raised more than $10.8M at a token price of $0.012765. And the buzz isn’t just from retail buyers. Whales have piled in, with $150K worth of buys from ten big players in just seven days. For a project that promises to supercharge Bitcoin itself, it’s no wonder investors are calling Bitcoin Hyper one of the best presale tokens this year. The Problem: Bitcoin’s Growing Pains Bitcoin is the biggest name in crypto. It is the most secure blockchain, the most trusted brand, and still the number one digital asset by market cap. But it was never designed for the demands of today’s world. Transactions on Bitcoin can take minutes to confirm. During times of high demand, fees have shot up to $30 or even $50 per transfer. Imagine trying to send $20 worth of Bitcoin and watching half of it vanish into fees – that’s the reality during congestion. On top of that, Bitcoin can only handle around seven transactions per second. Compare that with Visa, which averages about 65K transactions per second in daily use. Source: Chainspect That gap makes it hard for Bitcoin to function as a payment system for billions of people, like TradFi systems do. Another issue is programmability. Unlike Ethereum or Solana, Bitcoin can’t run smart contracts natively. Developers who want to build decentralized apps have to rely on clunky workarounds or other blockchains. That’s why Bitcoin has been sidelined from the rise of DeFi, NFT markets, and even meme coins. It remains digital gold, but not digital cash. The Solution:…

XRP flashes major buy signal after dumping over $26 billion in a week

XRP flashes major buy signal after dumping over $26 billion in a week

The post XRP flashes major buy signal after dumping over $26 billion in a week appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. XRP is showing signs of a potential recovery after one of its sharpest weekly declines in months. Over the past week, the cryptocurrency shed more than $26.45 billion in market capitalization, falling from $198.19 billion to $171.74 billion as of August 20. At press time, XRP was trading at $2.89, reflecting a 12% weekly decline and an additional 4% drop in the past 24 hours.  XRP one-week market cap chart. Source: CoinMarketCap Why XRP is crashing  The correction has raised doubts about the durability of XRP’s rally after losing the crucial $3 support amid broader market bearish sentiment. Whale activity has been a key driver of the downturn. In this case, wallets holding 10 million to 100 million tokens have offloaded 470 million since August 18, the largest distribution since July’s 660 million sell-off.  The latest wave of selling coincided with XRP slipping below $3, a level that has historically triggered 10% to 15% corrections, leaving the token vulnerable to further short-term weakness as large holders lock in profits. Regulatory uncertainty is adding to the pressure. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has delayed its ruling on pending XRP ETF applications until October 19, despite analysts earlier assigning a 95% probability of approval.  Meanwhile, Ripple’s pending banking license application, under review since July, has fueled additional investor caution. XRP buy signal However, technical signals suggest a possible rebound. According to analysis shared by Ali Martinez in an X post on August 20, the TD Sequential indicator on the daily chart has printed a “9” buy setup, a pattern often signaling potential trend reversals.  XRP price analysis chart.

BlackRock’s $548 Million BTC Dump Behind Market Crash?

BlackRock’s $548 Million BTC Dump Behind Market Crash?

The post BlackRock’s $548 Million BTC Dump Behind Market Crash? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The crypto market crashed following a selloff by institutional investors. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other top cryptos experienced a significant decline. Whales embark on selloffs to take profit and provide better buying opportunities. Crypto whales and institutional investors are on a selling spree, which is causing cryptocurrency prices to go down. A crypto user on X highlighted some parties involved in the ongoing crypto selloff, including those taking short positions and long trades that are being liquidated. That explains the market-wide pullback that cryptocurrencies have experienced in the past few days. Bitcoin led a market-wide price collapse Almost all the top cryptocurrencies, including BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL, and ADA, experienced a significant price decline recently. Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, dropped to $112,702 on Tuesday, reflecting a 9.4% pullback from its all-time high of $124,517, achieved less than one week ago.  Related: Bitcoin Retail Sentiment Collapses; Is This the Contrarian Bottom for BTC? Ethereum made a 15% pullback after an impressive rally of over 127% in less than two months, while other altcoins, including XRP, SOL, and ADA, followed a similar pattern, pulling back significantly after making massive gains over a short period. A typical whale behavior by BlackRock According to the crypto user, a cascade of liquidations of long positions caused the sharper drop in crypto prices. He noted that BlackRock alone dumped $548 million worth of Bitcoin within a few hours, with more investors speculating on a price increase, forcing them to close their positions. He further noted that traders shorted and liquidated long contracts, pressurizing crypto prices. The crypto user who highlighted the ongoing whale activities that led to the latest crypto market crash considers it a deliberate act by the big players. According to him, it is a typical approach that whales and institutional traders…
