Large Bitcoin holders, whose addresses are from 10 thousand to 100 thousand BTC, have increased their investments in the first cryptocurrency by $ 2.8 billion over the past five days. During this period, the "whales" bought 43 thousand BTC, according to the analytical service Santiment . Analysts believe that the active period of cryptocurrency accumulation could cause its sharp rise by $ 3.5 thousand on the night of November 8. Over the past 25 days, the "whales" have bought 93 thousand bitcoins ($ 6.1 billion, taking into account the current exchange rate at 17:45 Moscow time).
At 17:45 Moscow time, bitcoin is trading at $ 65.3 thousand. During the day, the asset has risen in price by 5.5%, and its capitalization has increased to $ 1.23 trillion. The cryptocurrency is recovering after it dropped below $ 58 thousand on October 28. Since then, the asset has risen in price by 13%.
Earlier, analysts at the investment bank JPMorgan called the fair value of bitcoin at $ 35 thousand. Experts compared the first cryptocurrency with gold and emphasized that the volatility of a digital asset is four times higher than that of a precious metal. Experts believe that if the fluctuations in the bitcoin rate are halved, then the goal of $ 73 thousand can be called reasonable.
