TL;DR
- The crypto market showed impressive signs of resurgence in the past week, but investors might have used these opportunities to dispose of some BTC and ETH holdings.
- Bitcoin miners started selling, and the same can be said about Ethereum whales and other investors.

Miners, the backbone of the largest proof-of-work blockchain network, are generally bullish. They tend to hold to their BTC during market rallies. However, they sometimes lock in profits during market uncertainty, especially if they have to cover some costs.
Following the massive turbulence experienced in the past several weeks due to Trump’s Trade War, when BTC’s price tumbled to a multi-month low of under $75,000, miners decided to secure some profits after the cryptocurrency added nearly $20,000 since April 9.
More specifically, they locked in around $18.6 million in profits as bitcoin jumped above $93,000 earlier this week, said Ali Martinez.
The landscape around Ethereum is more dire. As previously reported, many long-term ETH investors, such as Galaxy Digital, had decided to dispose of large portions of their ether holdings.
More recent data shared by the same analyst indicates that 305,000 ETH (valued at roughly $540 million at today’s prices) was moved to exchanges within just a week, which is typically a sign for future sales.
Additionally, Martinez said Ethereum whales started selling again after the recent trend reversal, offloading more than 63,000 ETH within just two days. In USD terms, this stash equals $110 million.

ETH’s price tumbled at the start of the month to $1,400, thus erasing roughly seven years of gains. It jumped past $1,800 earlier this week, which has allowed these investors to capitalize on the recent price surge.
