This week, trading activity has revived, and the market capitalization of the global cryptocurrency market has increased by 10%. As a result, large coin holders, or whales, have started accumulating specific coins.
Bitcoin (BTC), Notcoin (NOT), and Dogecoin (DOGE) have become their primary choices.
Bitcoin (BTC)
BTC is currently trading at $67,871, and it recorded an 11% price increase last week. As the leading coin, BTC is approaching its all-time high, and BTC whales have continued to increase their coin holdings.

Notcoin (NOT)
Notcoin, associated with Telegram, is another coin that cryptocurrency whales have purchased this week. According to IntoTheBlock, their large holder net inflow surged by over 2000% in the past 7 days.
Large holders are whale addresses holding more than 0.1% of the circulating supply. Their net inflow measures their buying and selling activity.
When it surges like this, whales have been accumulating more coins. Conversely, a decrease indicates these addresses have been selling their coin holdings.
