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.
Global crypto investment products saw a historic $4.39 billion in inflows last week, setting a new all-time weekly record and driving total assets under management (AuM) to $220 billion.
A wave of large token unlocks is set to hit the crypto market between July 21 and July 28, with significant implications for both price action and investor sentiment.
Crypto prices jumped again today as Ethereum’s tech upgrades, altcoin breakouts, and rising leverage fueled fresh momentum.
The crypto market is seeing a burst of activity, with several altcoins outperforming the broader market.
