Binance Sell-Off Pushes Bitcoin Down
On August 29, Bitcoin’s price fell to a two-week low of $57,900. This drop happened due to heavy selling on Binance, the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world. During U.S. trading hours, Binance saw a sharp sell-off of 45,000 BTC. This massive sell-off led to Bitcoin’s price dropping below $58,000.
The sell-off may have been triggered by controversy surrounding Binance’s involvement in funds related to users in Palestine. This news likely contributed to the market’s nervous reaction, leading to a significant price drop for Bitcoin. As a result, the market felt uncertain, and Bitcoin’s price dipped quickly.
Whales Buy Bitcoin at Lower Prices?
While Bitcoin’s price dropped, some large investors, known as whales, saw this as an opportunity to buy more Bitcoin at a lower price. One whale bought 1,000 BTC, which is worth nearly $60 million. This purchase shows that big investors still have confidence in Bitcoin, even when the price drops.
According to data from Santiment, wallets holding between 10 to 10,000 BTC have added 133,000 BTC to their holdings over the past month. This suggests that while smaller traders may be selling, larger investors are buying more Bitcoin. This behavior indicates that whales believe in Bitcoin’s long-term growth, even though the price might be volatile in the short term.
Bitcoin’s Price and Market Sentiment
Despite the recent price drop, Bitcoin is still following a consolidation pattern. This means that Bitcoin’s price is moving within a tight range, not making big moves up or down. Popular trader and analyst Rekt Capital pointed out that Bitcoin is forming a pattern on the weekly chart that often signals a breakout, either up or down.
The $58,000 level has become a crucial support zone for Bitcoin. After dipping below this level, the price quickly rebounded, showing that buyers are willing to step in and defend this support. However, if Bitcoin falls below this level again, it could lead to further price drops.
The market sentiment around Bitcoin is mixed. While large investors are buying more BTC, the recent sell-off has made some traders cautious. This has created uncertainty in the market, as some traders worry about potential further declines.
Looking Forward
The coming days will be crucial for Bitcoin as it retests key support levels. If the price can hold above $58,000, it may continue to consolidate before potentially breaking out of its current pattern. However, if selling pressure continues, Bitcoin could see further declines, with the next support level around $56,000.
For now, large investors appear confident, continuing to accumulate BTC during market dips. This accumulation suggests that the long-term outlook for Bitcoin remains positive, despite short-term volatility.
In summary, the recent drop in Bitcoin’s price was triggered by heavy selling on Binance, but large investors took advantage of the dip to buy more BTC. As Bitcoin retests key support levels, the market shows signs of cautious optimism. The next few days will determine whether Bitcoin can maintain its current levels or if it will face further declines.

Cryptocurrencies have made plenty of millionaires over the last decade.
Bitcoin bulls like MicroStrategy:
executive chairman Michael Saylor expected the largest crypto name to soar even higher in the long run, possibly creating many more millionaires along the way.
Now, buying Bitcoin isn't necessarily easy. You need an account with a cryptocurrency exchange, you must be comfortable sharing your bank information with that exchange so you can fund that account, and then you have to read up on the buying process. That used to be the only way to add direct Bitcoin exposure to your investing portfolio.
That changed in January 2024, when the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) allowed the launch of 11 spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Now you can buy or sell shares of these funds in pretty much the same way you'd buy and sell any ordinary stock, and their share prices are directly tied to the real-time Bitcoin price.

So it's easier than ever to start a Bitcoin investment. The largest and most popular spot Bitcoin ETF so far is the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (NASDAQ: IBIT). Can you trust this iShares trust to make you a million dollars?
Is Bitcoin a sensible investment?
First and foremost, the iShares Bitcoin Trust makes sense only if you expect the underlying Bitcoin crypto to make money. The Michael Saylors of the world are convinced that it will, but many investors disagree. Master investor Warren Buffett, for example, won't buy this ETF any time soon.
In 2018, Buffett predicted that Bitcoin "will come to a bad ending," along with the rest of the crypto market. Four years later, he still wouldn't have bought "all the Bitcoin in the world" for $25, because it doesn't produce anything of value.
I can't and won't argue with the greatest of all investing minds. Maybe he's right, and I certainly wouldn't recommend converting your entire nest egg into Bitcoin. But I do see enough value in this secure form of digital value storage to set up a small Bitcoin position for myself. Cryptocurrencies account for less than 1% of my overall investments, and Bitcoin isn't even the largest slice of those holdings.
So I stand somewhere in between the extreme positions of Warren Buffett and Michael Saylor. I'm willing to take a chance on Bitcoin investments, but not a very large one. That approach makes more sense to me than staying on the sidelines or going all-in. Your mileage may, as always, vary.
