Glassnode analysts note a noticeable decrease in the number of so-called Bitcoin kits. We are talking about addresses with at least 1,000 BTC.
Over the weekend, the number dropped to 2,027, the lowest number since August 2019. So wealthy investors have time to sell as the crypto-asset rises.
Bitcoin's correlation with traditional assets is declining. In this case, we are talking about BTC's correlation with the Nasdaq index, bonds and the dollar index.
Obviously, the recent jump in Bitcoin's value has helped the cryptocurrency differentiate itself from other investment vehicles.

Pleasantly.
