Market flow data reveals a clear divide between large and small Bitcoin participants. Whale-sized wallets posted a positive cumulative volume delta of $135 million this week, indicating aggressive buying. In contrast, retail and mid-sized traders recorded significant net selling.

Roughly 37% of BTC sent to Binance came from whale wallets, showing large capital actively seeking liquidity. Together, the data points to institutional-scale buyers quietly accumulating as smaller investors reduce exposure.
