Bitcoin whales have revealed their hand in the narrow range of 72.6K - 72.8K: · 7 large orders densely executed, totaling over $100M · 100% of orders placed near the current price, no bait placed further out · Multiple low-slippage, near-market-price transactions—real money locking in positions Funding rates remain negative, with shorts paying to hold their positions, yet the price is locked in a tight range and refuses to break down. This is a classic pre-compression pattern before a liquidity hunt—once short stop-losses are triggered, they become the fuel for the move. ⚠️ However, note that on-chain whale signals are currently absent, and there’s no confirmation from large DEX buy-ins forming a unified push. Bottom line: Consensus around the magnet zone has formed, with funds slowly accumulating, but whales haven’t entered yet. Don’t jump the gun—the key resistance is at 73.5K!
