How Bitcoin whales move markets, and the signals to ignore

In this new Cointelegraph in-depth video, we delve into the world of Bitcoin whales, the evolving market structure and how to avoid the pitfalls they set for retail investors.

For more than a decade, Bitcoin’s largest holders have acted as the unseen forces behind many of the market’s biggest surges and deepest crashes.

These so-called whales have always held outsized influence, but their behavior throughout 2025 suggests that a major shift is underway that could fundamentally reshape how Bitcoin (BTC) behaves heading into 2026.

The turning point came on Oct. 10, a day many traders now view as the unofficial end of the most recent crypto bull market. While billions in retail positions were wiped out in minutes, one early Bitcoin whale walked away with roughly $200 million in profit.

Bitcoin-to-Gold Ratio Plunges 50% in 2025 as Precious Metal Outshines Digital Asset

Bitcoin-to-Gold Ratio Plunges 50% in 2025 as Precious Metal Outshines Digital Asset

The Bitcoin-to-gold ratio has collapsed by 50% in 2025, marking a dramatic reversal in the relative performance of the two assets often positioned as alternatives to traditional fiat currencies. Gold has surged to record highs on the back of unprecedented central bank accumulation and robust ETF inflows, while Bitcoin has struggled amid persistent ETF outflows and significant selling pressure from long-term holders. This divergence challenges the narrative that has gained traction over the past decade positioning Bitcoin as "digital gold"—a superior store of value offering gold's monetary properties with added portability, divisibility, and verifiability. In 2025, investors have voted decisively for the original over its digital challenger, at least in relative terms.

Holiday Season Sees Surge in Crypto Scams as Fraudsters Target Distracted Users

Holiday Season Sees Surge in Crypto Scams as Fraudsters Target Distracted Users

The holiday season has brought an unwelcome gift to the cryptocurrency community: a marked escalation in fraudulent activity across multiple attack vectors. Scammers are ramping up phishing campaigns, fake token presales, romance schemes, impersonation tactics, and malicious applications, all designed to separate distracted users from their digital assets during a period of reduced vigilance. The timing is deliberate. Holiday distractions, year-end financial activity, and the general atmosphere of goodwill create ideal conditions for social engineering attacks. Users juggling shopping, travel, and family obligations may exercise less caution when reviewing messages or evaluating opportunities. Scammers understand this seasonal psychology and calibrate their campaigns accordingly.
