Active Addresses
In terms of active addresses, there were 1,100,527 active entries on the BTC network this week between May 21 and May 28, 2025. During this period, Bitcoin rose to the $111,000 level. On May 23 – 25, we see that Bitcoin purchases changed direction at the intersection of price and the number of active addresses on the chart. When we follow the 7-day simple moving average, it is observed that the price followed an upward trend on the dates when this average cut the price. This situation indicates that the Bitcoin price is experiencing entries at the level of 107,000 dollars.
Active Sending Addresses
With the Black Line (price line) in active shipping addresses, there was a significant drop in active shipping addresses on May 25. On the day when the price hit its lowest point, active sending addresses rose to 814,199, indicating that the positions held by the buyers were in a position to see Bitcoin fall from the $107,000 level for a while longer. As a result, price drops seem to cause an acceleration in sending addresses.
Active Receiving Addresses
With the Black Line (price line) in active shipping addresses, there has been a significant drop in active shipping addresses after May 22. On the day of the price high point, active shipping addresses rose as high as 557,924, indicating that buyers took their positions at Bitcoin’s $111,000 level.

Derivatives
Open Interest
Since May 21, there has been a general correlation between open interest and price. On May 22, open interest peaked at $37.8 billion and the price rose simultaneously. However, on May 23, there was a sharp drop in both metrics and open interest fell to around $35.2 billion. This could mean that long positions were liquidated or positions were closed. On May 24 and 25, both metrics rebounded, especially open interest, which rose again, reaching a second high on May 27. On the other hand, after May 27, the price started to decline and open interest declined slightly but started to rise again on May 28. The flat course of the last day’s price and the rise in open interest indicate that there are new position openings in the market, but the price has not yet reacted to it. This may indicate that volatility may increase in the short term.
Funding Rate
On May 21, the funding rate starts positive and rises as high as 0.011% on May 22, showing that long positions dominate. The price also peaks on the same day. However, on May 23, the price falls sharply to $107,500, but the funding rate shows a slight decline. On May 24 and 25, the price rebounds while the funding rate remains relatively lower, indicating that the market is cautious. On May 26 and 27, the funding rate rises again, suggesting that the market is back on the long side. However, on May 28, the ratio declines significantly. This decline suggests that the risk appetite in the market has diminished and participants have shifted to more neutral or cautious positions. It also indicates an increase in short positions. The fact that the price has remained flat in the last two days and the funding rate has remained low indicates that the market has become indecisive and tight.
Long & Short Liquidations
Bitcoin retreated to the $106,611 region after making an ATH at $111,980 last week. This movement led to the liquidation of $ 479 million long and $ 407 million short transactions.

New Supply: The amount of BTC produced this week was 3,256.
Velocity: Velocity, which was 12.98 last week, was 12.99 as of May 26.
| Wallet Category | 19.05.2025 | 26.05.2025 | Change (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| < 1 BTC | 8.5085% | 8.4954% | -0.15% |
| 1 – 10 BTC | 11.6011% | 11.5576% | -0.37% |

| 10k+ BTC | 8.3409% | 8.2512% | -1.08% |
Looking at the wallet breakdown of the current supply, the <1 BTC and 1-10 BTC categories saw limited decreases of 0.15% and 0.37% respectively, while the 10-100 BTC range showed a slight decline with a 0.33% decrease. 100-1K BTC wallets stood out with an increase of 0.38%, while the 1K-10K BTC segment stood out with an increase of 0.65%.

Exchange Reserve
Between May 21-27, 2025, Bitcoin reserves on exchanges decreased from 2,464,462 BTC to 2,450,028 BTC. During this period, there was a total net outflow of 14,434 BTC and the Bitcoin reserves of exchanges decreased by about 0.59%. During the same period, the Bitcoin price fell by around 0.69% from $109,675 to $108,919. The decline in exchange reserves indicates that selling pressure has subsided in the short term and investors continue to hold their assets for the long term. In general, this outlook holds bullish potential in the medium-long term, but the slight decline in Bitcoin signals that the market is unstable in the short term. Bitcoin can be expected to fluctuate in a horizontal band for the next week.

Transaction
Last week, there were 3,140,500 transactions on the Bitcoin network, compared to 2,866,633 this week, a decrease of about 8.72%. The 467,653 transactions recorded on May 22 constituted the highest transaction volume of the week, while the lowest number of transactions was 356,204 on May 25.
Looking at the correlations between price and the number of trades, we see that the correlations have been balanced throughout the week. This could be a sign that the Bitcoin price is unstable on the network at these levels.
Tokens Transferred
While 4,236,490 BTC was transferred last week, it increased by 14.83% to 4,864,952 BTC this week. On May 22, the highest token transfer volume of the week was 1,034,771 BTC, while the lowest token transfer volume was recorded on May 25 with 430,108 BTC. Positive correlations were observed between the BTC amounts transferred on the network in the “BTC amount transferred – Price” relationship throughout this week.
Whale Activities
Whales Data
Over the last 7 days, data from the cryptocurrency market showed that whale activity on centralized exchanges made heavy use of centralized exchanges at the beginning of the process. Towards the middle of the process, these activities increased more. When we look at the Exchange Whale Ratio metric, the rate of whales using central exchanges at the beginning of the 7-day period was measured as 0.487. When this ratio is above 0.35, it usually means that whales use centralized exchanges frequently. This measurement increased in the middle of the period, peaking at 0.648 on May 24. It currently stands at 0.561 and centralized exchanges continue to be used frequently. BTC has moved between $105,000 and $110,000 during this period. This indicates that whales are using centralized exchanges to buy. At the same time, total BTC transfers decreased by about 8% compared to last week, with 4,771,479 BTC moving. The data shows that Bitcoin whales transferred around 17,000 BTC from centralized exchanges to other custodians. As widely reported, this indicates an increase in bullish sentiment, which points to longer-term assets. According to the data, the number of Bitcoin whales holding at least 1,000 BTC hit an all-time high, rising to 1,455. As a result, when large investors scoop up BTC, it’s usually a bullish sign. In our on-chain metric, we can say that there is a bullish expectation for whale activity throughout the process.
