Bitcoin's top 21 whales accumulated $40 billion in 2025 so far—that's a reality check for anyone paying attention to the market.

While regular traders got caught up debating memecoins, the smart money was quietly stacking satoshis at every dip. No drama, no social media announcements. Just execution.

My own approach? Nothing fancy. I've been buying dips whenever the opportunity showed up. The payoff speaks for itself—my BTC position is up 35% since January started. Not life-changing money, but it tells you something about patience and discipline in this market.

The pattern is becoming clearer: retail chases excitement, whales build positions. Different strategies. Different outcomes.
