The on-chain analytics firm Glassnode has revealed how the large Bitcoin investors have been buying during this price rally so far. Accumulation Trend Score Suggests Strong Buying From Mega Whales In a new post on X, Glassnode has discussed about how the Accumulation Trend Score has changed for the different Bitcoin investor cohorts recently. The âAccumulation Trend Scoreâ refers to an on-chain indicator that basically tells us about whether the BTC holders are buying or selling. The metric calculates its value by not only making use of the balance changes happening in the wallets of the investors, but also the size of the wallets themselves. This means that large addresses have a higher weightage in the indicatorâs value. Related Reading: Bitcoin Short-Term Holders Back In Green As Price Breaks $94,000 When the Accumulation Trend Score is greater than 0.5, it suggests that the large investors (or a large number of small holders) are participating in accumulation. The closer the metric is to 1.0, the stronger is this behavior. On the other hand, the indicator being under 0.5 implies the investors are distributing or simply not doing any buying. On this side of the scale, the zero mark acts as the point of extreme. In the context of the current topic, the combined Accumulation Trend Score of the entire Bitcoin market isnât of interest, but rather the separate scores for the different investor cohorts. There are two main ways to divide holder groups: holding time and balance size. Here, the cohorts are based on the latter categorization. Below is the chart shared by the analytics firm that shows the trend in the Accumulation Trend Score for these groups over the past year. As displayed in the above graph, the Bitcoin market as a whole has been in a state of distribution during the last few months, but one cohort started to pull away from the rest last month: the 10,000+ BTC holders. The investors holding between 1,000 and 10,000 BTC are popularly known as the whales, so these investors, who are even more humongous, could be termed as the mega whales. From the chart, itâs visible that the rest of the market continued to sell into this month, but the mega whales, who were already dropping off their distribution, pivoted to buying instead. They have since only strengthened their behavior, with the metric now even reaching a near-perfect score of 0.9. The whales have also turned things around very recently, as the score has hit 0.7 for them. Thus, it would appear that the big-money investors as a whole have been accumulating Bitcoin during the latest recovery rally.

The investors on the smaller end are still continuing to distribute. The current pattern is sort of similar to what was witnessed back in December 2024, where the Bitcoin mega whales started participating in strong distribution ahead of the rest. Bitcoin Price Bitcoin crossed above the $94,000 level earlier, but it seems the coin has seen a pullback since then as its price is back at $92,600.

Asset manager ARK Invest has raised its Bitcoin bull case price prediction from $1.5 million to $2.4 million by the end of 2030. The firm argued that the rise in its BTC price target was driven largely by institutional investors and Bitcoinâs increasing acceptance as âdigital gold.â ARKâs Big Ideas 2025 report noted that the firm updated its Bitcoin price target for 2030, projecting bear, base, and bull cases of ~$300,000, ~710,000, and ~$1.5 million per BTC, respectively. The company also bumped its bear and base case scenarios for the price of BTC up to $500,000 and $1.2 million. ARKâs new bear and base targets were bumped up from its $300,000 and $700,000 Bitcoin predictions of February 11. ARK Invest elevates Bitcoin bull case prediction to $2.4M Weâve published our bitcoin price forecast through 2030. Read our research from @dpuellARK and share your thoughts. https://t.co/CH7y5EyUjY â ARK Invest (@ARKInvest) April 24, 2025 ARK Invest has raised its bull case Bitcoin price prediction from $1.5M to $2.4M by the end of 2030. The firmâs research trading analyst David Puell said in an April 24 report that the rise in BTCâs prediction was driven largely by institutional investors and the digital assetâs continued acceptance as âdigital gold.â Puell acknowledged that ARKâs price targets relied on assumptions made regarding the total addressable markets (TAMs) and penetration rates, which is the percentage of BTCâs TAM that it could capture in certain cases. He added that the digital currencyâs supply schedule, which will approach ~20.5 million units by 2030, can also determine its BTC price targets. The analyst also highlighted that Bitcoin may fail to reach ARKâs price targets if any TAMs or penetration rates are unmet. Source: ARK Invest. 2030 Bitcoin price target. The Florida-based investment management firm found that digital gold contributes the most to its bear and base cases, while institutional investment contributes the most to its bull case. The company also highlighted that nation-state treasuries, corporate treasuries, and Bitcoinâs decentralized financial services contribute relatively little in each case. Cathie Woodâs company also revealed that as of 2024, the global portfolioâs TAM, excluding goldâs 3.6% share, is ~$169 trillion. The firm applied an assumed 3% compound annual growth rate (CAGR), resulting in a value of ~$200 trillion by 2030. Puell estimated that the virtual asset would achieve a 6.5% penetration rate into the $200 trillion financial market in a best-case scenario (excluding gold). The investment manager acknowledged that Bitcoinâs acceptance as âdigital goldâ was a major contributor to its elevated estimate. Puell also estimated that it could capture up to 60% of goldâs $18 trillion market cap by the end of 2030 in a bull scenario. ARK sees Bitcoin as a potential contributor to capital accrual Puell argued that BTC becoming a âsafe havenâ in emerging markets was the third-largest contributor to ARKâs $2.4 million bull case prediction at 13.5%. He pointed to the digital assetâs ability to protect wealth from inflation and devaluation in developing countries. âThis Bitcoin use case has the greatest potential for capital accrual.â -David Puell, analyst at ARK Invest. ARK Investâs BTC price projections also included nation-state and corporate Bitcoin financial services, which was initiated by the success of MicroStrategy âs BTC purchases in 2020. The firm argued that if corporate strategies prove successful over the next six years, its bear and base casesâ conservative penetration assumption â 1% and 2.5%, respectively â could move toward its bull case assumption of 10%. According to Puell, a $2.4 million BTC price tag would send the virtual assetâs market cap to $49.2 trillion if Bitcoinâs total supply will have reached 20.5 million by the end of 2030. The firm also argued that Bitcoinâs native financial services are an emerging contributor to capital accrual. ARK noted the Lightning Networkâs dedication to scaling BTCâs transaction capacity and Wrapped BTC (WBTC) on the Ethereum network, which enables BTC to participate in decentralized finance. The investment manager believes that such on-chain financial services generate a baseline CAGR of 40%, which is a realistic expectation between now and 2030.

The post Ripple News: CME to Launch XRP Futures, CEO Reacts appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Thereâs big news for XRP holders â the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) has officially announced it will launch XRP futures contracts starting May 19th. These new futures will be available in both large and micro-sized contracts, giving traders more flexibility and precision in managing their exposure to XRP. This move is a huge milestone for XRP, as the CME is considered one of the most trusted and regulated futures exchanges in the world. While XRP futures have already been launched on platforms like Coinbase and Bitnomial, those are relatively small players compared to the CME. Many experts believe this development is a key step toward the long-awaited approval of an XRP Spot ETF. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) often looks to the CME as a gold standard when considering futures markets, and having XRP futures listed there strengthens the case for an ETF. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse also reacted to the announcement, calling it âan incredibly important and exciting step in the continued growth of the XRP marketâ, though he admitted it was long overdue. While overdue in a bunch of ways, this is an incredibly important and exciting step in the continued growth of the XRP market! https://t.co/mnwJXKH5hi â Brad Garlinghouse (@bgarlinghouse) April 24, 2025 Looking ahead, thereâs growing speculation that the SEC could approve not only an XRP Spot ETF but possibly a Solana ETF and others by later this year. With Paul Atkins recently sworn in as SEC Chair and a noticeably more pro-crypto stance from the agency, analysts believe thereâs a high chance of ETF approvals by Q2 or Q3 2025. If these ETFs get the green light, it could mark a major turning point for XRPâs market growth and wider adoption.

MAGACOINFINANCE Enters the Conversation With Cryptoâs Most Watched Assets Over the years, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ripple (XRP) have earned their reputations as pillars of the cryptocurrency market. Now, a new name is entering analyst discussions alongside them: MAGACOINFINANCE . Unlike its larger counterparts, MAGACOINFINANCE is still early. Its entry through a limited-access pre-sale phase is giving analysts and early investors a reason to look closerânot because it competes with BTC or XRP, but because it mirrors the conditions that made them successful in the first place. Why MAGACOINFINANCE Is Being Compared to Top Performers MAGACOINFINANCEâs launch generated rapid traction, confirming the excitement many insiders were already expecting. Its appeal comes not from flashy marketing but from disciplined tokenomics, early momentum, and a structure that rewards those who position themselves before mass listings begin. Analysts are beginning to see MAGACOINFINANCE as one of the few altcoins with real runway for exponential growthâa rarity in todayâs maturing crypto landscape. MAGACOINFINANCE vs. ADA, BCH, and SUI: A New Cycle Begins Cardano (ADA) continues to push technical development. Bitcoin Cash (BCH) remains a fast alternative for payments. SUI has momentum as a newer protocol. But none of these assets provide the timing advantage that MAGACOINFINANCE does right now. Itâs still early, still off the radar, and still priced for asymmetric growth. That makes MAGACOINFINANCE a completely different kind of opportunityâone that closely resembles the early phases of coins that later defined the market. Final Thoughts: MAGACOINFINANCE Follows the Footsteps of BTC and XRPâs Best Days Bitcoin (BTC) succeeded because it offered early believers a first-mover advantage. XRP delivered when it was still under the radar. Now, MAGACOINFINANCE is in that same positionâstructured, limited, and quietly building strength. This is how winning moves begin.
