Over 27,740 Bitcoin, valued at approximately $2.4 billion, were withdrawn from exchanges on March 25, marking the highest daily outflow since July 2024. Meanwhile, spot Bitcoin ETFs have continued attracting inflows, signaling renewed institutional interest.
Whale Activity and Market Sentiment
Analysis from Glassnode indicates that a significant portion of the withdrawals came from Bitcoin whales—holders of at least 1,000 BTC. On March 25 alone, these investors moved over 11,574 BTC (worth around $1 billion) off exchanges. This trend suggests accumulation and reduced selling pressure, which is often a bullish indicator for Bitcoin’s price.
Additionally, Arkham Intelligence reported that a “billionaire Bitcoin whale” added 2,400 BTC (worth over $200 million) on March 24. Despite some February sell-offs, this investor now holds over 15,000 BTC, hinting at strategic buying amid price dips.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs See Continuous Inflows
Another bullish sign is the steady inflow into spot Bitcoin ETFs. Since March 14, these funds have recorded eight consecutive days of inflows, totaling nearly $900 million. Market data provider Santiment noted that this is the longest streak of inflows seen in 2025.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s price remains in a crucial technical zone. Trading at $88,265, BTC faces resistance at the 20-week exponential moving average (EMA) of $88,682. Analysts highlight the importance of this level, as historical breakouts above the 20-week EMA have preceded major price surges.
