Bitcoin Wallet Activity Divides as Large Holders Accumulate

Bitcoin wallet data shows fewer non-empty addresses alongside continued accumulation by wallets tracked as smart money.

Bitcoin wallet data shows fewer non-empty addresses alongside continued accumulation by wallets tracked as smart money. Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at ₹69,90,117 ($74,419.00). This is an original Token Times brief based on reporting by BeInCrypto, with live market data added, as of Tue, 10 Nov 2026 10:00:02 UTC.

Why it matters

The divergence suggests that Bitcoin ownership is concentrating during a monthly price decline, potentially changing the supply mix between smaller holders and larger accumulators. The live Fear & Greed reading of 32 indicates that market sentiment remains cautious.

Key takeaways
  • Non-empty Bitcoin wallets fell by about 108,700 since October 16.
  • Tracked smart-money wallets added more than 14,200 BTC in two weeks.
  • Bitcoin trades below the reported $75,700 average cost basis.
  • Live BTC is down 0.40% over 24 hours and 2.71% over seven days.

BeInCrypto, citing Santiment data, reports that the number of non-empty Bitcoin wallets has fallen by approximately 108,700 since October 16. Over the same broader period, wallets categorized as smart money accumulated more than 14,200 BTC during the preceding two weeks, pointing to a split between wallet activity and larger-scale accumulation.

The report’s market snapshot placed Bitcoin at $74,507, down 9.86% over one month. That price was below the roughly $75,700 average cost basis cited by BeInCrypto. Current live data shows BTC at $74,377, with a 24-hour decline of 0.40% and a seven-day decline of 2.71%.

Bitcoin’s current market capitalization stands at $1.5 trillion, while the total crypto market is valued at $2.55 trillion and is broadly flat. The global Fear & Greed index is at 32, placing sentiment in the “Fear” range despite the latest wallet-accumulation figures.

The immediate figures to monitor are the roughly $75,700 average cost basis, whether the decline in non-empty wallets continues, and whether smart-money accumulation persists. Current pricing remains below the cited cost basis while sentiment is classified as fearful, making both wallet behavior and investor sentiment relevant context for the developing split.
