On-chain data shows that Tether (USDT) sharks and whales have been rapidly growing their holdings since Bitcoin’s volatility started.<\/p>\n

Tether Sharks & Whales Grow Holdings As USDT Exchange Supply Plunges<\/h2>\n

According to data from the on-chain analytics firm Santiment<\/a>, these large Tether holders are now carrying a total of $16 billion worth of the stablecoin. The relevant indicator here is the “USDT Supply Distribution,” which tells us how the Tether supply is distributed among the various holder groups in the market currently.<\/p>\n

Investors or addresses are divided into these holder groups based on the total number of coins that they are holding right now. In the context of the current discussion, the key “shark<\/a>” and “whale<\/a>” cohorts are of interest, the combined coin range of which can be defined as $100,000-$10 million.<\/p>\n

Naturally, this holder group would include all addresses on the blockchain that are carrying at least $100,000 and at most $10 million worth of USDT in their balances.<\/p>\n

Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Tether Supply Distribution specifically for the sharks and whales over the last six months:<\/p>\n

As displayed in the above graph, the Tether addresses holding between $100,000-$10 million have seen their combined supply shoot up recently. Interestingly, this rise has coincided with Bitcoin observing some high volatility due to Binance being sued<\/a> by the SEC over alleged fraud.<\/p>\n
Generally, investors use stablecoins like USDT whenever they want to exit volatile coins like BTC. Thus, investors exchanging their assets for stables can be a sign of selling.<\/p>\n
It’s possible that the latest rise in the supply of sharks and whales has come because of these humongous holders ditching cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin in these uncertain times.<\/p>\n

However, usually, whenever holders opt for stablecoins instead of exiting through fiat or other means, it means that they are possibly looking to eventually return back into the volatile markets.<\/p>\n
When such investors finally feel that the prices are right to step back into the other coins, they shift their USDT into their desired asset, thus providing buying pressure on its price.<\/p>\n
Because of this reason, the stablecoin supply may be looked at as the available buying power for assets like Bitcoin. As the sharks and whales have loaded up on Tether and have taken their supply to a new all-time high of $16 billion, the potential dry powder for BTC has also gone up.<\/p>\n
It’s unknown when these humongous holders may finally shift back into the cryptocurrency, but when they do, it’s probable that its price would feel a bullish boost.<\/p>\n

The data for the exchange supply (that is, the amount sitting in exchange wallets) of Tether is also shown as rising in the chart. It looks like this metric has gone up while the sharks and whales have been buying, implying that the coins exiting from these platforms are being picked up by these cohorts.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading around $26,600, down 2% in the last week.<\/p>\n

Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to. In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions. Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true. Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn\u2019t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment.. Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form. Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new. As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money. Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn\u2019t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs. Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/keshavverma29\/\",\"https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/keshavvarma29\"],\"url\":\"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/author\/hououinkyouma29\/\"}]}<\/script>\n","yoast_head_json":{"title":"Tether (USDT) Sharks & Whales Rapidly Accumulate, Why This Is Bullish For Bitcoin","description":"On-chain data shows the Tether (USDT) sharks and whales have been rapidly growing their holdings since Bitcoin's volatility started.","robots":{"index":"index","follow":"follow","max-snippet":"max-snippet:-1","max-image-preview":"max-image-preview:large","max-video-preview":"max-video-preview:-1"},"canonical":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/","og_locale":"en_US","og_type":"article","og_title":"Tether (USDT) Sharks & Whales Rapidly Accumulate, Why This Is Bullish For Bitcoin","og_description":"On-chain data shows the Tether (USDT) sharks and whales have been rapidly growing their holdings since Bitcoin's volatility started.","og_url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/","og_site_name":"NewsBTC","article_publisher":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/newsbtc","article_published_time":"2023-06-09T12:30:31+00:00","article_modified_time":"2024-06-11T08:30:35+00:00","og_image":[{"width":1254,"height":836,"url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/iStock-1402102628.jpg?fit=1254%2C836","type":"image\/jpeg"}],"author":"Keshav Verma","twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_creator":"@https:\/\/twitter.com\/keshavvarma29","twitter_site":"@newsbtc","twitter_misc":{"Written by":"Keshav Verma","Est. reading time":"3 minutes"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/#article","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/"},"author":{"name":"Keshav Verma","@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/#\/schema\/person\/bdb6d57b7ea5cc00981204795656d1a6"},"headline":"Tether (USDT) Sharks & Whales Rapidly Accumulate, Why This Is Bullish For Bitcoin","datePublished":"2023-06-09T12:30:31+00:00","dateModified":"2024-06-11T08:30:35+00:00","mainEntityOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/"},"wordCount":544,"publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/#organization"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/#primaryimage"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/iStock-1402102628.jpg?fit=1254%2C836","keywords":["bitcoin","Bitcoin Bullish","btc","btcusd","tether","Tether Sharks","Tether Whales","USDT","USDT Sharks & Whales"],"articleSection":["Cryptocurrency Market News"],"inLanguage":"en-US","copyrightYear":"2023","copyrightHolder":{"@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/#organization"}},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/","url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/","name":"Tether (USDT) Sharks & Whales Rapidly Accumulate, Why This Is Bullish For Bitcoin","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/#primaryimage"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/#primaryimage"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/iStock-1402102628.jpg?fit=1254%2C836","datePublished":"2023-06-09T12:30:31+00:00","dateModified":"2024-06-11T08:30:35+00:00","description":"On-chain data shows the Tether (USDT) sharks and whales have been rapidly growing their holdings since Bitcoin's volatility started.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/iStock-1402102628.jpg?fit=1254%2C836","contentUrl":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/iStock-1402102628.jpg?fit=1254%2C836","width":1254,"height":836,"caption":"Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria -

As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money. Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn\u2019t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs. Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/keshavverma29\/","https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/keshavvarma29"],"url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/author\/hououinkyouma29\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Tether (USDT) Sharks & Whales Rapidly Accumulate, Why This Is Bullish For Bitcoin","url":"http:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/iStock-1402102628.jpg?resize=200%2C200","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/iStock-1402102628.jpg?fit=1254%2C836"},"articleSection":"Cryptocurrency Market News","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Keshav Verma"}],"creator":["Keshav Verma"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["bitcoin","bitcoin bullish","btc","btcusd","tether","tether sharks","tether whales","usdt","usdt sharks & whales"],"dateCreated":"2023-06-09T12:30:31Z","datePublished":"2023-06-09T12:30:31Z","dateModified":"2024-06-11T08:30:35Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Tether (USDT) Sharks & Whales Rapidly Accumulate, Why This Is Bullish For Bitcoin\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/news\\\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/news\\\/tether-usdt-sharks-whales-accumulate-bullish-bitcoin\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/06\\\/iStock-1402102628.jpg?resize=200%2C200\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/06\\\/iStock-1402102628.jpg?fit=1254%2C836\"},\"articleSection\":\"Cryptocurrency Market News\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Keshav Verma\"}],\"creator\":[\"Keshav Verma\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"bitcoin\",\"bitcoin bullish\",\"btc\",\"btcusd\",\"tether\",\"tether sharks\",\"tether whales\",\"usdt\",\"usdt sharks & whales\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2023-06-09T12:30:31Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2023-06-09T12:30:31Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-06-11T08:30:35Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/uniquehot.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/iStock-1402102628.jpg?fit=1254%2C836","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/537152"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/542"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=537152"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/537152\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/537161"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=537152"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=537152"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=537152"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
