According to the source, a Satoshi-era Bitcoin whale transferred approximately $180 million in BTC to Coinbase on Jan 12, 2026, signaling potential readiness to sell (source: X post on Jan 12, 2026). Historically, spikes in BTC exchange inflows are associated with short-term downside risk and higher intraday volatility as additional supply hits order books (source: CryptoQuant research on exchange inflows and price drawdowns, 2023). Movement of long-dormant coins elevates Coin Days Destroyed and has often coincided with distribution phases in prior cycles, warranting caution on bounces (source: Glassnode Week On-Chain reports on CDD and dormancy flows, 2021–2023). Traders should monitor BTC exchange inflow, Coinbase order book imbalance, and perpetual funding rates to confirm whether sell pressure is absorbed or accelerates (source: CryptoQuant metric dashboards; Coinbase market data; major derivatives exchanges funding data).

According to @lookonchain, BlackRock deposited 3,743 BTC valued at 339.45M and 7,204 ETH valued at 22.42M to Coinbase Prime on Jan 12, 2026, totaling approximately 361.87M in crypto flows to the venue, source: Lookonchain.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, traders should note funds are now on-exchange, and historically, larger exchange inflows have aligned with higher short-term realized sell pressure; watch price reaction around the whale’s quoted 3,100 resistance and 2,930 support, source: Glassnode Academy Exchange Flows https://academy.glassnode.com/metrics/exchange-flows; levels source: X post by @ai_9684xtpa dated 2026-01-12 https://x.com/ai_9684xtpa/status/2010529221333184827.

According to @EmberCN, a whale or institution that accumulated 101,000 ETH at a $660 average five years ago sent its final 26,000 ETH, about $80.88M, to Bitstamp roughly 4 hours ago, completing a full exit; the address flows are visible via Arkham Intelligence, source: @EmberCN; Arkham Intelligence. The position was built via Binance and Bitstamp and exited around a $3,313 average, locking in roughly $269M in profit, approximately 4x, with earlier exchange transfers averaging $3,383, source: @EmberCN; Arkham Intelligence. Exchange inflows like this final 26,000 ETH deposit are commonly associated with pending sell execution and increased near-term offer-side liquidity on the depositing venue, supporting potential short-term pressure on ETH spot pairs, source: @EmberCN; Glassnode Academy. With the address now cleared, there is no remaining ETH balance from this entity after this batch, removing a previously identifiable source of sell supply once absorbed, source: @EmberCN; Arkham Intelligence. Traders can reference the $3,313 to $3,383 zone where this entity realized exits as a recent supply area, source: @EmberCN.

According to @caprioleio, early Bitcoin holders have resumed selling, indicating renewed distribution by OG cohorts that may matter for near-term BTC market structure.

According to @EmberCN, an on-chain wallet accumulated 378 WBTC in late October using 41.91M USDT at an average entry of $110,660, confirmed by Arkham Intelligence address 0x6e1784b360F1bEcb692FCf8393A699811af90733 as the source. According to @EmberCN, after roughly 2.5 months of holding, the wallet transferred all 378 WBTC to Binance today at a reported exit price of $90,717, with the transfer visible on Arkham Intelligence as the source. According to @EmberCN, this translates to about $34.3M in proceeds versus $41.91M cost, implying an approximately $7.61M realized loss and a per-coin drop of roughly $20,000 at the time of transfer, with the transaction trail corroborated by Arkham Intelligence as the source. According to CryptoQuant and Kaiko research, large inflows to centralized exchanges have historically preceded increased sell pressure and higher intraday volatility in BTC pairs, suggesting traders monitor Binance spot and perp order books for follow-through as the source.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, wallet 0x6e1784b360F1bEcb692FCf8393A699811af90733 deposited 378.11 WBTC to Binance about 7 hours ago valued at roughly 34.3 million dollars, signaling a likely position exit, source: @ai_9684xtpa and Arkham intel.arkm.com/explorer/address/0x6e1784b360F1bEcb692FCf8393A699811af90733. The wallet acquired the position during Oct 21 to Oct 26, 2025 at an average purchase price of 110,504 dollars per WBTC and has held for about three months, source: @ai_9684xtpa and Arkham intel.arkm.com/explorer/address/0x6e1784b360F1bEcb692FCf8393A699811af90733. If the deposit is sold at the stated valuation, the realized loss would be approximately 7.483 million dollars on 378.11 WBTC, source: @ai_9684xtpa.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, wallet 0x237…B6aAb deposited 2,900 ETH to Binance roughly 10 minutes before the post, worth about $9.42 million, with cumulative deposits of 5,900 ETH over the past week (source: @ai_9684xtpa on X; Arkham Intelligence explorer). The address withdrew 8,550 ETH from Binance on 2025-12-21 at an average price of $2,991, and if today’s 2,900 ETH tranche is sold it would realize approximately $707,000 profit, while the remaining portion still shows about $654,000 unrealized gains (source: @ai_9684xtpa on X; Arkham Intelligence explorer). The wallet continues to hold 20,081 ETH on-chain; traders can track this address and Binance ETH inflows for execution timing and liquidity monitoring (source: @ai_9684xtpa on X; Arkham Intelligence explorer).

According to @bubblemaps, claims of a 99% accuracy single-address match are clickbait because thousands of wallets can fit the same exchange in/out pattern, making attribution unreliable for trading signals (Source: Bubblemaps on X, Jan 5, 2026). @bubblemaps states a one-day gap between funds entering and leaving an exchange is not meaningful for wallet linkage, so timing-based heuristics should not drive SOL or broader crypto trades (Source: Bubblemaps on X, Jan 5, 2026). When including USDC, ETH, and other assets instead of only SOL, @bubblemaps finds 20 matching candidates in the same one-day window with the same dollar value, exposing high false-positive risk for whale tracking and on-chain attribution (Source: Bubblemaps on X, Jan 5, 2026). @bubblemaps adds that deposits may come via bank transfer, multiple smaller deposits, or much earlier activity, breaking on-chain causality and invalidating headline wallet matches for trading decisions (Source: Bubblemaps on X, Jan 5, 2026). The trading takeaway implied by @bubblemaps is to treat single-factor on-chain matches as noise and demand multiple independent confirmations before acting on SOL, ETH, or USDC exchange flow narratives (Source: Bubblemaps on X, Jan 5, 2026).

According to Lookonchain, BlackRock transferred 2,201 BTC (about USD 192 million) and 7,557 ETH (about USD 22.12 million) to Coinbase Prime, with the wallets attributed to BlackRock via Arkham Intelligence’s entity page intel.arkm.com/explorer/entity/blackrock and the transfer disclosed on X at x.com/lookonchain/status/2005629847956246806. According to Glassnode, higher exchange inflows have historically correlated with increased realized selling and greater available supply on order books, making large deposits like these trading-relevant for BTC and ETH; see Glassnode’s exchange inflow methodology at academy.glassnode.com/metrics/indicators/exchange-inflows and insights.glassnode.com. According to Coinbase, Coinbase Prime is an institutional platform for trading and custody, so such deposits can reflect execution, liquidity provisioning, or portfolio rebalancing by large entities rather than retail flows; see coinbase.com/prime. According to Arkham Intelligence, monitoring the BlackRock entity address cluster can help traders track whether these funds move into hot wallets or exchange-facing addresses to gauge near-term market impact; see intel.arkm.com/explorer/entity/blackrock.

According to @EmberCN, Pump.fun transferred 50 million USDC from ICO proceeds to Kraken 10 hours ago. According to @EmberCN, total ICO-derived USDC sent to Kraken since November 15 has reached 605 million over roughly six weeks.

According to the source, long-dormant Bitcoin whale wallets inactive for a decade or more moved billions of dollars in BTC and cashed in as price hit new 2025 highs, the source reports. Based on the source’s report of whale profit-taking into strength, traders should monitor large-wallet transfers to exchanges, sell walls near recent highs, and derivatives funding/basis to manage overhead supply risk, the source indicates.

According to the source, a Dec 27, 2025 social media post claims Bitcoin whales moved billions of BTC in 2025 but provides no transaction hashes, addresses, or market impact metrics, so the claim cannot be independently verified from the post alone and should not be used as a sole trading signal.
