Bitcoin is currently trading above $118,000, and while it hasn\u2019t yet been able to reclaim last week\u2019s all-time high, the asset is still almost 15% up over the past month.<\/p>\n

Despite the ongoing bullish sentiment, retail investors are still offloading Bitcoin on Binance as evidenced by a surge in retail inflows that aligns with signs of profit-taking.<\/p>\n

Retail Selling Into Strength<\/h2>\n

According to the latest figures shared<\/a> by CryptoQuant, Binance\u2019s 30-day retail inflow has spiked from $12 billion to over $16 billion. This was indicative of an increased selling activity as BTC\u2019s price climbed toward recent highs.<\/p>\n

A similar pattern emerged in April 2025, when Bitcoin rose from $78,000 to $111,000 by the end of May. During this time, retail traders also offloaded significant portions of their holdings amidst the uptrend and ultimately missed out on the full upside.<\/p>\n

This recurring behavior points to a tendency among retail investors to sell into strength. Such behaviour is likely driven by fear or short-term profit motives, rather than holding for potential further gains.<\/p>\n

Further confirming this sell-off pattern, Binance\u2019s Net Taker Volume has turned negative, which reflects a bearish sentiment among market takers. Negative net taker volume indicates that sellers are dominating, either by liquidating long positions or entering new short positions in anticipation of a potential pullback. This sentiment among retail traders suggests that many remain unconvinced of the rally\u2019s sustainability.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, whales are aggressively accumulating during this period of retail selling. Data from Whales Screener reveals that in the past 24 hours alone, whales have withdrawn over $400 million in Ethereum and nearly $200 million in Bitcoin from centralized exchanges.<\/p>\n

Such large withdrawals typically indicate a firm belief in a continued market uptrend, as whales use the liquidity from retail sellers to build positions. This behavior is consistent with past trends where retail exits during rallies while whales continue accumulating.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin\u2019s Path to $140K<\/h2>\n

Amid this divergence between retail selling and whale accumulation, attention is now turning to what analysts expect for Bitcoin\u2019s next major move. Analyst Mr. Wall Street, for one, expects<\/a> Bitcoin to climb to $140,000 mid-term, but warned that sell-side pressures may cap gains. The crypto asset has held above $117,000 and aims for $120,000-$123,500 short-term before a potential run toward $133,000-$140,000.<\/p>\n

However, wallets that accumulated BTC during the 2022 lows are now offloading. This pattern was seen before previous cycle peaks.<\/p>\n
