Will Bitcoin Hit $100K

The post Time to Buy BTC? BlackRock Adds $1 Billion to Bitcoin Holdings appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Bitcoin (BTC), the world’s largest digital asset by market capitalization is witnessing a shift in sentiment toward the bullish side. On December 4, 2024, blockchain intelligence firm Arkham made a post on X (formerly Twitter) that BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager had purchased a significant amount of Bitcoin.

BlackRock Buys $1 Billion of Bitcoin 

In a post on X, Arkham noted that BlackRock had purchased a substantial $1 billion worth of Bitcoin over the past three days. However, readers should note that, over the past week, several firms across industries, from medical to financial, have made significant purchases, indicating a potential sign of accumulation.

Since November 11, 2024, BTC’s price appears to be in a consolidation zone, which may explain why whales, institutions, and retailers are continuously showing confidence and interest in the asset, making significant withdrawals from exchanges.

$963 Million of BTC Outflow

Besides BlackRock’s recent purchase, since the beginning of December 1, 2024, exchanges across the cryptocurrency landscape have witnessed a significant outflow of $963.35 million, as reported by Coinglass. In the context of cryptocurrency, outflow refers to the transfer of assets from exchanges to wallet addresses.

Additionally, outflows hint at a potential buying opportunity, reduce selling pressure, and suggest a possible upside rally.
