Published by

The crypto market saw its valuation fall under $2 trillion again as Bitcoin ($BTC) and Ethereum ($ETH) lost key support momentarily. September has continued to be bearish for the crypto market, but Mike Novogratz, the CEO of one of the leading crypto asset manager groups Galaxy Digital said if BTC maintains its price above $40,000 and ETH above $2,800, the crypto market is in good shape. Novogratz’s comments came during his appearance on CNBC’s Squawk Box.

Mike Novogratz is a known Bitcoin proponent and believe the market is just consolidating and would eventually recover to regain the bullish momentum.

$BTC price fell below $40K key support yesterday before recovering above the price and currently trading at $42,063 with a 2.5% decline over the past 24-hours. The top cryptocurrency started the month on a high at a price of near $53K, and as has been the historic trend in September, the top cryptocurrency has lost nearly 20% of its market cap since September 6.

Bitcoin Whales and Retail Buyers Continue to Accumulate

Bitcoin price might have been on the decline, but on-chain metrics and retail and whale accumulation indicate that the top cryptocurrency is slated for a resurgence very soon. As per glass node data, small Bitcoin wallets now hold 13.9% of the total circulation supply, indicating these small wallets have increased their holdings significantly since the May sell-off.

The second-largest Bitcoin whale wallet was seen buying the dip as it accumulated 321 BTC worth over $13 million and currently holds about $5 billion in Bitcoin. The whale wallet holds a total of 111,794.59 BTC  which is about 0.5939% of the entire Bitcoin supply.
