Strategy Gearing Up to Buy Bitcoin While OG Whale Keeps Selling

2 hours ago by · 2 mins read

Michael Saylor’s Bitcoin treasury is preparing for another Bitcoin accumulation following a successful raise in Europe.

Strategy, the leading Bitcoin (BTC) treasury company with 641,205 BTC, is preparing to accumulate more of the digital gold following a fundraising in Europe.

On-chain data shows that the company, led by Michael Saylor, has completed five test transactions from Coinbase Prime over the past two days.

When an institution or whale makes a test transaction, it’s usually an indicator of preparing for a large inflow. In this case, Strategy aims to make sure its wallet address works seamlessly to avoid a huge loss.

Strategy’s test transactions come just after a €620 million, roughly $717 million, STRE offering in Europe. The Bitcoin treasury firm, which was originally a business intelligence and data analytics company,  tapped a foreign market for the first time since its initial public offering in June 1998.

Saylor’s company’s latest Bitcoin purchase of 397 BTC, at an average price of $114,771, was recorded on Nov. 3.

Currently, Bitcoin is trading at $101,800 with a market cap of $2.03 trillion.

OG Whale Keeps Selling

Bitcoin OG whale Owen Gunden has been aggressively dumping his BTC holdings, worth roughly $11 billion in total, since Oct. 21 via the Kraken crypto exchange.

The long-time Bitcoin holder sent the last portion of his assets – 3,549 BTC, worth $361.8 million – to an unknown address.

Moreover, the new address has already deposited 600 BTC, worth $61.1 million, to Kraken.

Sudden crypto deposits into cryptocurrency exchanges typically result in a selloff.

Due to the whale’s large holdings, the movement will likely put pressure on the Bitcoin price unless Strategy’s buying spree neutralizes the negative momentum.
