Bitcoin’s recent volatility has impacted the entire cryptocurrency market, including altcoins, causing some investors to stay on the sidelines while larger players, known as “whales,” continue making significant moves in the altcoin space.
According to a report from cryptocurrency analysis firm Santiment, several altcoins have seen a noticeable increase in whale activity recently.
Among those drawing attention are Fast Token (FTN), Ethereum Name Service (ENS), Trust Wallet (TWT), and Layer Zero (ZRO), which is active on both Arbitrum and Ethereum.
Other altcoins experiencing heightened whale transactions include Memecoin (MEME), Amp Coin (AMP), Axelar (AXL), Curve Finance (CRV), and MakerDAO (DAI).
Santiment cautioned that high whale activity often correlates with increased price volatility, advising investors to be cautious as these altcoins face fluctuating market conditions.
Activity among major cryptocurrency holders is intensifying, with significant token movements reshaping the landscape.
Ethereum (ETH) has been experiencing a notable decline relative to Bitcoin (BTC), prompting analysts to forecast further price drops in the near future.
Since Donald Trump’s victory in the November 2024 election, his pro-crypto policies have positively impacted Bitcoin, which has surged nearly 22% since November 5.
Binance has expanded its support for Epic Chain (EPIC), integrating the altcoin across multiple services.
