Bitcoin Surpasses $100,000 as Whale Activity Aligns with Institutional Demand
2025/01/18 15:00
Bitcoin price may soon climb further as rising institutional demand and whale activity appear to align with each other.
Massive whale movement matches U.S institutional demandA significant surge in whale activity—addresses holding major amounts of an asset—has been seen in the last 24 hours. Notably, a whale holding approximately $2.7 billion worth of BTC moved around $1.05 billion into Coinbase Prime, according to data shared by a blockchain analysis firm.
This whale, as reported earlier by AMBCrypto, had accumulated most of its BTC between 9-11 September, 2024, when the price ranged between $54,000 and $56,000. This was just months before the cryptocurrency surpassed the $100,000-threshold.
In most scenarios, large asset transfers from private wallets to exchanges are considered bearish, as they often indicate plans to sell. However, in this instance, the movement likely underlines strong demand for BTC, as evidenced by its recent price trajectory.
Moreover, as highlighted by crypto-analyst Ki Young Ju, when significant inflows occur into Coinbase Prime Brokerage, it often signals heightened demand for the asset among institutional investors.
“The preferred Bitcoin purchase channel for U.S. institutions suggests multiple over-the-counter (OTC) trades are currently in progress,” Ju added.
OTC trades involve private transactions between buyers and sellers, bypassing public exchanges to avoid slippage or significant market impact.
As seen in the chart above, inflows into Coinbase Prime have increased notably over the past week, hitting levels last seen in December 2024—Just before BTC rallied to its all-time high of $108,135 on 17 December. If this trend continues, Bitcoin could touch a new all-time high in the coming weeks.
While market sentiment remains bullish, a short-term pullback is possible before BTC resumes its upward trajectory.
Local top, slight dropAccording to Hyblock Capital, there is a 15% ask imbalance on BTC. This implies the asset has likely reached a local top, with an increase in sell orders too.

Historically, this pattern has occurred seven times, as reflected in the chart. In each instance, Bitcoin saw a slight retracement to the lower end before resuming an upward move.
If history repeats itself, BTC may see a minor pullback before continuing its upward trajectory and potentially hitting a new all-time high.
