Bitcoin Accumulation Hits Record High as Investors Embrace 'Bargain Prices'

Apr 19, 2024 at 10:01 am

In a single day, Bitcoin (BTC) enthusiasts added a record-breaking $1.7 billion to accumulation wallets as the price dropped below $63,000. Over 27,700 BTC, equivalent to $1.75 billion, was moved to accumulation addresses within 24 hours from April 16th to 17th, setting a new daily record, according to CryptoQuant data.

Bitcoin Accumulation Hits Record High as Investors Embrace 'Bargain Prices'

Bitcoin Accumulation Reaches Record High as Investors Flock to 'Bargain Prices'

In a testament to the enduring faith of Bitcoin (BTC) enthusiasts, hardcore holders have amassed a staggering $1.7 billion worth of the cryptocurrency in a single day. This unprecedented accumulation surge occurred as the price of Bitcoin dipped below $63,000 earlier this week.

Data compiled by the blockchain analytics firm CryptoQuant reveals that a colossal 27,700 BTC, equivalent to $1.75 billion at current market value, was transferred to accumulation addresses within a 24-hour period between April 16 and 17. This marks a new daily record for Bitcoin accumulation.

The previous record was set on March 23 this year, when 25,500 BTC was funneled into accumulation addresses on a single day. Notably, the price of Bitcoin at the time was also hovering around the $63,500 mark.

The substantial volume of Bitcoin accumulating at this price range suggests that large, dedicated investors remain confident in the long-term prospects of the cryptocurrency. These so-called "accumulation addresses" are designated Bitcoin wallets with no prior withdrawal history and a balance exceeding 10 BTC. They have been carefully screened to exclude wallets associated with Bitcoin miners and crypto exchanges. Additionally, these addresses must have been active at some point within the past seven years.

Market experts, including pseudonymous trader Rekt Capital, opine that the current market conditions may present a rare opportunity for investors to acquire Bitcoin at "bargain prices" before a significant post-halving rally.

In a recent analysis shared with their 453,000 Twitter followers, Rekt Capital drew parallels between the current price action and historical halving cycles. The trader posited that the recent decline in Bitcoin's value, which has seen it lose over 14% from its all-time high of $73,600 reached on March 13, aligns with an anticipated "pre-halving retrace."

Rekt Capital predicts that Bitcoin could embark on a "re-accumulation phase" following the halving event, which is slated for April 20. They anticipate that once Bitcoin breaks out of this re-accumulation range, it will enter a parabolic uptrend.

"Historically, this phase has lasted just over a year (~385 days) however with a potential Accelerated Cycle occurring right now, this figure may get cut in half in this market cycle," added Rekt.

If Rekt Capital's analysis holds true, the current dip in Bitcoin's price could represent a strategic buying opportunity for investors who anticipate a sustained rally in the months to come following the halving event.
