Bitcoin Whales Rebuild Reserves With 236K BTC in 90-days

Large Bitcoin holders have steadily increased their reserves in recent months, with totals climbing back to levels seen before the Oct. 10, 2025 market crash. Wallets holding 1,000 to 10,000 BTC raised their combined balance to 3.09 million BTC from 2.86 million BTC on Dec.

10, 2025, an addition of 230,000 BTC that restores the cohort to pre-October 2025 levels. Crypto analyst caueconomy noted the full drawdown in whale reserves has been reversed over the past 30 days with the accumulation of 98,000 BTC. The broader distribution phase began in August 2025 after BTC hit $124,000 and failed to sustain a higher rally.

Spot-market activity has been marked by unusually consistent large orders in 2026, with average order sizes between 950 BTC and 1,100 BTC—the most consistent stretch of big-ticket activity since September 2024. CryptoQuant analyst maartunn reported $8.24 billion in whale BTC flows into Binance over the past 30 days, a 14-month high, while retail flows of $11.91 billion have flattened.
