Market observers said on Thursday, a total of $1.3 billion in USDC was transferred from whale addresses to the cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase, which could be a "huge buy signal" for Bitcoin and Ethereum.

"The influx of USDC into exchanges is a huge buy signal," cryptocurrency trader Blockchain Mane pointed out.

According to data from Etherscan, these five transfers totaled $1.3 billion, with amounts ranging from $150 million to $350 million, and were transferred to Coinbase at 08:15 UTC on April 25.

Traders often view large stablecoin deposits into exchanges as a bullish signal, indicating the possibility of large buy orders in the near future, while large cryptocurrency deposits into exchanges may signal potential sell-offs, keeping traders cautious about a downturn in the market.

"If this is indeed whales buying, and if calculated at current prices, then yes, it could have a significant impact on the prices of the assets they are buying, at this level almost certainly only Bitcoin and Ethereum," cryptocurrency commentator Lark Davis, also known as "Cryptolark," pointed out.

However, cryptocurrency analysts unanimously believe that whale activity is not a guarantee indicator of the cryptocurrency market.

“Whale activity has received a lot of attention, but we never really know what they're up to,” Davis said.

“$1.3 billion is a nice amount of capital, but it depends on how it's deployed,” cryptocurrency trader and YouTuber Brian Jung added.

Davis also pointed out that whales may place limit orders rather than immediately buying assets, which would instead create stronger support levels for the cryptocurrencies they invest in.

Davis explained, "Limit orders will come in, forming buy walls, providing price support for assets."

But he warned that how these massive transfers will affect the market is "never certain."

Meanwhile, Jung believes that, if a large amount of funds enters a single cryptocurrency, the market could "positively shift" as "we'll see additional liquidity help drive up prices of other cryptocurrencies."

Although he doubts whether investors would see the benefit of doing so due to overexposure to risk.

“If this capital is deployed into a single altcoin with a market cap of $100 million, the price will absolutely skyrocket, but I can't imagine any sane whale doing that because it would make them almost impossible to profit from,” Jung said.

“If it's used to buy Bitcoin, there won't be a similar effect,” Jung added.

According to the Fear and Greed Index, despite a slight decline in cryptocurrency market sentiment, funds are still flowing massively.

Over the past 24 hours, the greed score has dropped from 64.04 to a neutral level of 59.78, indicating that traders' attention has shifted from accumulation.
