Are Crypto Currency Whales Really Responsible For This Ongoing Market Volatility?

A new study by blockchain analysis firm Chainalysis shows that Crypto Currency whales don't seem to be accountable for the ongoing volatility. The study examined around thirty two largest BTC wallets, that reportedly represent one million bitcoins or around $6.3 Bln.

Are Bitcoin[BTC] Whales Really Responsible For This Ongoing Market Volatility?

Bitcoin [BTC] whales entities are basically associated with the individuals that own large amount of the cryptocurrencies and somehow are said to exert influence on the market volatility. However, Chainalysis’ recent research reveals that Bitcoin [BTC] whales are “a diverse cluster, and solely about a few third of them are among the daily active traders. And whereas these trading whales supposedly have the potential of executing transactions massive enough to maneuver the market, they have, on net, traded against the herd, purchasing on the price drops.”

In the course of the analysis study, the firm divided the thirty two wallets into four sections. The foremost active section consists of 9 wallets that belong to traders, who frequently conduct transactions with Bitcoin [BTC] on exchanges. This cluster of Bitcoin holders controls over more than 332,000 coins that value over $2 Bln, however solely a common fraction of them actively trades BTC. Most of these traders were reportedly entered into the market earlier in 2017.

The second section is depicted by miners and early adopters, that embody fifteen investors additionally holding a total amount of 332,000 coins. The trading activity of this cluster is reportedly extremely low, though the report states that several of them created vital divestments from 2016–2017 once BTC costs soared.

The two remaining sections embody 3 wallets of criminals with over a 125,000 coins which account a worth of around $790 Mln, and lost wallets representing over 212,000 coins that value around $1.3 Bln. The study found that since 2011, there haven’t been any transactions from the “lost” wallets.

The analysis of the trading whales revealed that they are presently are not intensifying volatility, as throughout after the major declines observed in 2017 and 2018 thay were the net purchasers of Bitcoin [BTC].

The research study further adds:

“That net activity demonstrates that the trading whales weren’t marketing off Bitcoin in any mass quantity, however rather were net receivers of Bitcoin from exchanges in late 2016 and 2017 which means that trading whales were, in addition, purchasing on declines and, consequently, were helpful, instead of the destabilizing factor within the market…”

Earlier in Dec 2017, following the Bitcoin [BTC] worth surge to $19,000 USD, the community became involved concerning what would happen if thousand individuals owning around 40% of all existing bitcoins cash it out instantaneously. A coordinated strike by a number of whales, selling off enough coins to cause a glut within the market, may sink the prices to the advantage of certain traders.
