Bitcoin Whales Split: Giant Addresses Continue Accumulating, Mid-Sized Holders Accelerate Selling

2026.07.20 16:28:12

Crypto analyst Amr Taha has noted a clear divergence in recent dynamics among Bitcoin holders: large whales continue accumulating Bitcoin, while medium-sized wallets are selling off at an accelerating pace. Specifically, wallets holding 1,000 to 10,000 BTC added a net ~66,700 BTC over the past 60 days, near the 68,000 BTC level set on June 16. By contrast, wallets holding 100 to 1,000 BTC recorded a net sell-off of roughly 77,800 BTC, marking one of the most aggressive sell-off periods in current data. Historical data shows that the behavior of wallets holding 100 to 1,000 BTC aligns with key short-term market turning points. On April 25, this group’s net accumulation exceeded 92,000 BTC. About 10 days later, Bitcoin entered a short-term correction, ultimately falling around 29%. Amr Taha argues that continued accumulation by large holders reduces immediately available supply, particularly during periods when smaller groups are actively distributing Bitcoin. While group data alone cannot determine future price trends, the current shift of supply toward large wallets may signal positive mid-term momentum for Bitcoin.

Trend-following funds have taken a record short position in global bonds, with the US CPI report expected to be the key determinant of their profit and loss.

According to Bloomberg, data from UBS Group shows that Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs), which seek to profit from price movements across various asset classes, tripled their underweight positions in bonds in July from two weeks prior. Since then, these bets have remained stable. If the upcoming U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Producer Price Index (PPI) push Treasury prices higher, the CTAs face the risk of losses. Strategist Nicolas Le Roux noted that a 1-basis-point move in the 10-year Treasury yield ahead of inflation data translates to roughly $300 million in profit or loss for CTAs, with this exposure being the largest UBS has recorded since it began compiling relevant data in 1990.

Brad Lightcap, head of special projects at OpenAI, is set to depart.

According to a report from The Information, Brad Lightcap, head of special projects and former chief operating officer (COO) of OpenAI, is set to leave the company. Over the past year, Lightcap’s internal responsibilities at OpenAI have undergone multiple adjustments, with his latest role being leading "special projects". A long-time core member of OpenAI’s management team, Lightcap shifted from his COO position to lead special projects in early 2026 during an executive reshuffle, overseeing cross-company matters including complex transactions and strategic investments, and reporting directly to CEO Sam Altman. His departure comes as OpenAI continues to expand its commercialization efforts, advance enterprise business and strategic partnerships. The company has previously implemented multiple rounds of organizational restructuring, including transferring some COO responsibilities to other executives. Brad Lightcap joined OpenAI in 2018, and prior to that held roles at Y Combinator and JPMorgan Chase. He was one of the key operations and business leaders during OpenAI’s transition from a research institute to a commercial AI company.
