🐳 The decline in overall whale activity across most crypto assets has become more and more noticeable. Peak 2024 $100K+ transaction weeks for BTC & ETH compared to recently:

Bitcoin:
March 13-19: 115.1K Whale Transactions
August 21-27: 60.2K Whale Transactions

Ethereum:
March 13-19: 115.1K Whale Transactions
August 21-27: 31.8K Whale Transactions

Be mindful that a decline in whale activity doesn't necessarily mean they are dumping or prices are likely to drop as a result. Top addresses notoriously become most active during times when volatility is at its highest.

Overall, among activity that is happening from whales, Santiment data still indicates a steady flow of accumulation despite less overall transactions.

📈 Solana has made history today surpassing Binance Coin to move into the #4 spot in crypto for the 1st time in its 4+ years of trading. Expect the two assets to be in close proximity to one another, but SOL's +35% growth vs. BNB's +10% the past 2 weeks gives SOL the momentum.
