The current market conditions indicate a strong buy-the-dip mentality among Bitcoin whales, which could potentially stabilize the price and provide support against further declines. However, traders should remain cautious and keep an eye on long-term holder behavior and ETF inflow trends for further market insights.
In summary, while Bitcoin’s dip below $67K might cause concern for some, the active accumulation by whales and positive ETF inflows suggest a resilient market outlook with potential for recovery.
