Bitcoin price shows a change in market behavior under the hood. According to crypto analyst Tony M, this is a sign that a market reversal could be imminent. Meanwhile, after Merge, there is a big change in Ethereum whale holdings.
“Bitcoin price preparing to move”
Crypto analyst Tony M analyzes the price action of the leading crypto as follows. The market has recently been down almost in a free fall. Therefore, Bitcoin price is trading around $19,000. The bears managed to hold the newly established decline at $18,540, which led to a 20% rally in the first week of September. However, the upward movement has reversed. Later, BTC price found a new low at $ 18,271. The drop was accompanied by an interesting change in market behavior behind the scenes.
Santiment’s Exchange Entry Indicator showed an increase of 620,000 Bitcoin tokens uploaded to all exchanges on September 19. This means that $11,879,200,000 Bitcoin is now liquid and ready to be sold at any time. To reiterate, 10% of the entire crypto market has been involved in all exchanges in the last 24 hours.
