Active Addresses
In the number of active addresses, there were 1,036,123 entries to exchanges between January 29 and February 3, 2025 this week. Bitcoin fell from 104,000 to 97,000 during this period. Bitcoin buying accelerated at the intersection of price and the number of active addresses en the region marked el the chart, which is the highest number of active addresses since the first days of February and the number of addresses ready to trade. On January 31, the number of active addresses, which fell to 870,247, may indicate that the market is falling, and investors are selling out of fear. When we follow the 7-day simple moving average, it is observed that the price follows a downward trend el the dates when these average cuts the price. Bitcoin reached 907,440 en correlation with the active address EMA (7). This situation indicates that the Bitcoin price is experiencing entries from 101,000 levels.
On the Active Receiving Addresses, it is seen that el February 3, when the price was at 101,000, the number of buyers approached the highest levels, 554,032, and the longest buying was at the level where investors went to increase their bitcoin positions. However, el the chart, the SMA (7-Day) is close to changing the trend direction (entering the bullish zone) at the intersection with the price at 507,696. This may indicate the costing levels of buyers before the price rises.
On the exits, there was a significant increase en active shipping addresses towards January 31, along with the Black Line (price line). On the day of the price peak, active shipping addresses rose to 679,711 , indicating that buyers sold their positions as Bitcoin remained at 103,000 for a while.

On January 29, OI was at $30.6 billion, rising with price and peaking at $34.5 billion el January 30. After this point, however, both price and OI gradually decline. On February 2, as the price fell sharply, the OI also declined sharply, suggesting that the market was liquidating, and investors were closing positions.

On February 4, both price and OI hit lows, and a large portion of leveraged positions were liquidated or closed. As of February 5, there is a slight rebound but no strong bullish signal yet.

On February 2 and 3, the funding rate remained flat as the price declined sharply, but el February 4, the funding rate also declined sharply as the price bottomed out.

Between January 29 and February 4, the amount of Bitcoin transferred was 4,568,006 BTC, an increase of 3.51% compared to the previous week (January 22-28). As en previous periods, it was observed that the amount of Bitcoin transferred el Saturdays and Sundays was at the lowest levels.

Whale Activities
CryptoQuant revealed the increased activity of new Bitcoin whales or STH en an X post el the Bitcoin Whale outlook. CryptoQuant published a chart showing that these new whales have grown significantly and have reached 60% of the total realized capitalization of major players. The published chart shows a sharp increase en the proportion of new whales. These investors entered the active growth phase when the BTC price touched $55,000. Their market share increased from 43% to 60% of the total realized capitalization of the major players. “This is a perfect example of the contrasting behavior between whales and retail traders, and following whales rather than retail investors is generally considered a better choice,” said CryptoQuant’s Darkfost. During the market declines after the middle of the last 7-day period, Bitcoin whales continued to make their moves en the middle of this market trend. BTC daily transactions are still above 380k en 24 horas, albeit near the lowest range en the last 12 months. Over time, BTC daily transfer volumes have fallen below $1 billion per day, despite occasional whale transactions. On the other hand, according to Glassnode, addresses holding more than 1,000 BTC increased their holdings por about 5% en the last 24 horas. In one notable transaction, 1,137 BTC (worth about 119.7 million $ ) was transferred to Cumberland, a major trading firm. This is a sign that institutional players are stepping en.
Whales Data
According to the remarkable data en the cryptocurrency market en the last 7 days, whale activity el the central exchange has reached high levels. When we look at the last 7-day whale movements, the use of central exchanges por whales varies. When we look at the Exchange Whale Ratio metric, it showed that at the beginning of the 7-day period, whales did not use central exchanges very often compared to the past, and the value was measured as 0.42. This measurement reached 0.52 en the middle of the process, showing us that whales started to use the central exchange very intensively. At the time of writing, the value is 0.47. When this ratio is above 0.350, it usually means that whales use centralized exchanges frequently. At the same time, the total BTC transfer was en line with last week, with 4,568,006 BTC moving.
