Bitcoin whale transfers exceeding $100,000 increased this week across Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether on Ethereum and XRP Ledger networks, with a March 1 White House deadline tied to Clarity Act discussions adding uncertainty, Santiment reports. The analytics firm said high spikes in large transactions relative to surrounding activity typically signal elevated probabilities of market reversals, and it expects a significant jump in whale activity at the beginning of March regardless of outcomes. Santiment also said Bitcoin is approaching 20,000 wallets holding at least 100 BTC, with each 100 BTC wallet valued at a minimum of $6.78 million, noting that total supply held by key stakeholders has not surged significantly and prices remain suppressed despite wallet growth as retail traders often sell during fear or early profit-taking while larger wallets gradually absorb supply.

Bitcoin climbed toward $68,000, with the number of addresses holding at least 100 BTC nearing 20,000, each now worth a minimum of $6.78 million, Santiment data show. The analytics firm said these large wallets typically belong to high-net-worth investors, funds, long-term holders, or institutions, and noted the recent increase after price weakness can signal accumulation, though overall supply concentration among major stakeholders has not risen markedly. Market analyst Willy Woo maintained a bearish view, citing weak spot and futures liquidity and identifying $45,000 as a typical bear market bottom, with the current bearish regime potentially persisting until roughly Q4 2026 before a possible shift toward bullish momentum in Q1 or Q2 2027.

Bitcoin options market positioning reflects expectations for a possible rebound toward $90,000, with traders placing derivatives bets on a recovery in the underlying price.

If these options flows and analytical signals align, observers suggest the current structure could mark the early stage of a larger trend shift in Bitcoin price dynamics.

Bitcoin met resistance at the $70,000 psychological level and was trading around $67,000 on February 27, BlockBeats reports. BTC faces triple weekly-level resistance, including the 200-week EMA (approximately $68,330), the 2021 high of $69,000, and the $70,000 barrier. Since February, BTC has declined approximately 14% on a month-to-date basis, potentially marking its fifth consecutive monthly decline, the first such streak since the late 2018 bear market. Analysts suggest a sustained rise above the 200-week EMA could allow bulls to test the $80,000 level, while a breakout above $74,500—the 18–24 month holding cost range—could signal the bear market's end; historical data show that after five consecutive monthly declines from 2018 to 2019, BTC posted five consecutive monthly gains exceeding 300%, and if this cycle repeats, a potential reversal window may point to April.
