The majority of the conversations, according to Santiment, include the terms “60k,” “ATH,” and “bullish.” This shows that some investors are currently expecting new all-time highs for the leading cryptocurrency.
Following the price surge from the $50,000 mark, Bitcoin’s whale activity also recorded a notable increase. According to Santiment, whale transactions consisting of at least $100,000 worth of BTC surged from 8,267 to 16,885 unique transactions per day since Feb. 24.
When an asset’s whale activity quickly surges, high volatility is usually expected.
