The trading week starting December 29th brings several pivotal moves. Monday opens with a major institutional play—Strategy accumulating 1229 Bitcoin at an average entry of $88,586 per coin, a significant signal for market participants watching whale activity. The same day sees international geopolitical developments that could ripple through risk assets.

Tuesday keeps traders glued to the macro calendar as the Federal Reserve releases its latest FOMC meeting minutes, a critical read for those tracking interest rate expectations and monetary policy direction heading into 2025.

Mid-week marks the New Year's Eve transition, followed by New Year's Day closure on Thursday—compressed trading windows that typically see elevated volatility.

Throughout the period, market sentiment remains sensitive to China-US trade dynamics and broader geopolitical shifts. For BTC holders and portfolio managers, this week's data releases and institutional moves will likely set the tone for Q1 positioning.

Whales gobbled up 1229 in one go, that's a pretty ruthless buy-in... But this wave of volatility at the end of the year will probably drive people crazy.

Damn, the big whale bought over 12,000 at a price of over 88,000. As a retail investor, I'm still debating whether I should go all-in... Laughing as I lose everything on this trade.

The whales are stocking up again, buying over 1200 coins at the 88k price level. I really don't understand... Is this a bottom-fishing move or an ambush?

Whales are accumulating again, dropping over 1200 coins at the 88k price level. What could this be hinting at? Are you afraid of the FOMC minutes? I definitely am. This year's end volatility is so exciting, hold steady and don't make reckless moves. The price point of 88586 is a bit particular, could someone be testing the market? The last frenzy before the New Year's Day holiday, betting on a surge to $30,000. Why does it feel like there are so many things happening this week—geopolitics, policies, trading windows all stacking up... hard to say. Whales accumulating is just whales accumulating; retail investors can't keep up with this rhythm anyway. Will the Federal Reserve's minutes cause Bitcoin to rise or fall? Honestly, no one can predict accurately. Regarding US-China trade, risk assets are all trembling along. 1229 coins, that order made me envious. Who can help me buy the dip? The New Year's Eve market is usually volatile; you need to keep a steady mindset.
