- Whale inflows to Binance reach $7.5B, highest in a year, indicating rising market pressure and possible profit-taking.
- Bitcoin faces key resistance at $100K–$110K, combining technical and psychological barriers for bulls.
- Structural accumulation near $81–82K supports controlled re-accumulation, targeting $93K–$98K unless $89K breaks.
Bitcoin whales have moved $7.5 billion into Binance over the past 30 days, marking the highest inflow in a year, according to CryptoQuant analyst JA_Maartun. This surge highlights increased activity from large holders amid current market fluctuations. Binance, as the world’s largest exchange, often attracts whale funds during times of stress or key price tests.
Besides signaling possible profit-taking, these inflows indicate that risk has not yet fully cleared. Historical patterns show similar activity during March 2025, when Bitcoin fell from roughly $102K to the low $70K range. Consequently, investors should monitor exchange inflows closely as a measure of market pressure.
CryptoQuant confirmed the spike on X, stating, “The current spike in inflows is similar to patterns seen in earlier high-volatility periods, such as March 2025.” Analysts suggest that while capital is mobilizing, this does not immediately signal a market reversal.
In prior comparable periods, Bitcoin took roughly a month to find a local bottom after large inflows occurred. Hence, the current situation warrants cautious observation rather than hasty decisions.
Technical Levels and Market Structure
According to Lark Davis, Bitcoin recently reclaimed the $90K range but faces significant resistance ahead. He notes, “First stop: the 50-week EMA, currently sitting around $100K. But the real resistance is $108K–$110K.” This range contains multiple technical barriers, including Fibonacci retracement levels and prior horizontal resistance, creating a key “boss fight” for bulls. Moreover, these levels act as psychological ceilings, potentially shaping investor behavior in the near term.
SinaOsivand adds that whale flows suggest a transition from distribution near $96K into structural accumulation at the $81–82K floor. “This zone now represents the primary cycle support,” he explains. Positive clusters at $86–87K indicate ongoing position-building, driving recovery toward $90–92K.
Current order flow around $91K shows mixed rotation, but the market still favors range expansion targeting $93K and a stop-rich zone at $97–98K. Consequently, $BTC remains in a controlled re-accumulation phase unless $89K breaks structurally.
