A Bitcoin investor known as “Mr. 100” has recently purchased over 4,100 BTC, marking his initial buy since the Bitcoin halving event in April 2024. This acquisition occurred when Bitcoin prices briefly fell to $56,000, with the investor making purchases at approximately $58,000.
The total value of this transaction is roughly $242 million, as indicated by data analyzed from Bitinfocharts, which was highlighted by the user HODL15Capital.
The Bitcoin wallet associated with Mr. 100 started receiving consistent deposits after the FTX collapse in November 2022. The wallet accumulated at least 100 BTC daily from mid-February 2023, with a pause only during the period following the halving in April 2024.

He explained that a price reduction close to or more than 20% from peak levels typically signals a beneficial time to buy before an expected price recovery. He added that a deeper price reduction might indicate that the market is approaching a low point.
Jag Kooner, from Bitfinex, anticipates a short phase of price stability for Bitcoin, with expected large price movements in the next few months. He suggests that Bitcoin will likely trade within a $10,000 range for one to two months. Kooner links this prediction to the reduced Bitcoin supply after the halving and improved economic conditions, which he believes will support cryptocurrency values in the future.
