Data reveals that long-term Bitcoin whales with wallets averaging 5-7 years old have been moving their Bitcoin to Binance at a rate last seen in July, when BTC entered a redistribution phase before reaching a $124,000 high a month later.
According to CryptoQuant data, Binance’s Exchange Spent Output Age Bands indicator rose on November 4th to a 4-month high, contributing to selling pressure that pushed Bitcoin down over 8% in the past week.
However, analysts remain bullish on Bitcoin’s mid-term outlook.
Analysts Say Bitcoin’s Whale Transfer Is “Quiet Redistribution”
When long-term whales move coins to exchanges like Binance, it typically signals their readiness to take profits or reallocate positions after prolonged inactivity, which is only a short-term warning sign.
According to ArabXchain, Bitcoin holding near $106,000, despite these whale movements, confirms that the market is experiencing quiet redistribution, not a sell-off.
“If the balance between older deposits and consistent demand from newer maturities persists, we may witness upward price accumulation in the coming weeks.”
Despite the sharp decline in Bitcoin’s price since the start of November, analysts also observe a bullish pattern.
Inflows into “permanent holder” wallets, addresses with no outflows continue rising steadily.
The realized price of long-term holders has climbed to around $78,520, indicating that institutions, funds, and whales are accumulating even at higher price levels while stronger hands absorb short-term selling pressure.
MAC_D analyst on CryptoQuant notes that a true bear market would begin only if Bitcoin breaks below the cost basis at $78,500.
“In the short term, factors such as a potential U.S. government shutdown, equity market corrections, and elevated Korean premium could lead to additional volatility.”

Technical Analysis: $108K Breakout Could Send Bitcoin to $112K
On the technical front, the Bitcoin (BTC/USDT) 1-hour chart shows the price consolidating around the $105,970 level after rebounding from a key support zone near $104,900, identified as the Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ).
This area aligns with the cumulative long liquidation leverage zone, suggesting a region where selling pressure has likely eased and buyers are starting to regain control.
Above the current price, Bitcoin faces a cluster of resistance zones between $108,000 and $112,000, which also coincide with areas of cumulative short liquidation leverage.
The $108,246 level marks a significant 38.2% Fibonacci retracement point; a break above it could signal renewed bullish momentum and open the path toward higher resistance levels near $110,000.
Overall, the short-term outlook leans cautiously bullish as long as BTC holds above the PRZ and $104,900 support area.
However, failure to sustain this level could trigger a retest toward $103,000. A clean breakout above $108,000 would strengthen the case for a trend reversal toward $112,000.
