What Happened: Bitcoin corrected to an intraday low of $81,179.99 in the early morning hours but staged a recovery past $83,000 overnight after President Donald Trump's call with Russian President Vladimir Putin signaled a Ukraine ceasefire.

Analyst Notes: Noted cryptocurrency analytics firm CryptoQuant highlighted "aggressive" accumulation by high-net-worth Bitcoin holders, or those holding at least 1,000 BTCs
"On-chain data confirms that since November 2024, these wallets have collectively acquired over 1 million BTC," CryptoQuant stated. "If this trend continues, it could act as a key support mechanism for Bitcoin's price in this cycle."
