According to data from the block explorer, the Bitcoin whale transferred the BTC to two separate wallets. The first wallet with a total of 34 transactions received 2,000 BTC, while the second wallet with a total of 2 transactions received 28,406 BTC.

BitInfoCharts shows that the Bitcoin whale first created the sending wallet on 31st December 2020. The day the wallet was created, it received a huge trove of BTC and became the 23rd wealthiest wallet.

Currently, none of the Bitcoin (BTC) involved has been sent to any known crypto exchanges. This indicates that the crypto whale is not dumping the BTC.

Crypto analytics platform Glassnode is also keeping a close watch on whale activity. In a new tweet, the firm says the number of large BTC whales has been on an increase since the Bitcoin bull market started in October 2020.
