BTC surged over the weekend following Donald Trump’s bullish comments.
Many traders prepared for the Bitcoin rally ahead of time.
Crypto whales are showing interest in ARB, XRP, and ONDO.

Bitcoin surged 4% from a $66,637 weekend low following bullish comments by former U.S. President Donald Trump at the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville. Trump stated that he would implement a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve if reelected, leaving BTC supporters optimistic, as evidenced by the flagship crypto’s rebound to $70,000.

In a previously uploaded video , Altcoin Buzz YouTube channel host Cody Buffington noted that many traders positioned themselves in Bitcoin in anticipation of a potential price surge. That decision appears prescient, considering Bitcoin’s reaction in the past two days and the momentum signaled by the top crypto’s price action.

Meanwhile, Buffington observed that crypto whales are buying certain altcoins despite their less impressive performances from the previous week. However, the renowned analyst thinks the accumulation signals confidence in the cryptocurrencies’ near-term potential. Buffington identified the top three coins that the whales accumulated as ARB, XRP, and ONDO.

According to Buffington, most analysts are surprised by ARB’s inclusion among the accumulated cryptos, citing the altcoin’s recent decline. Nevertheless, he believes crypto whales bought the altcoin in good faith at a level not seen in a long while. He cited IntoTheBlock’s data, which showed ARB’s large holders’ netflow jumping by a staggering 870% in less than seven days.

Meanwhile, the Altcoin Buzz host attributed XRP’s recent performance to the goodwill the altcoin has enjoyed in the crypto market. Buffington cited figures from Santiment showing that addresses holding 100 million to 1 billion XRP tokens have increased since July 23. According to the analyst, it spiked from 38% to 40% over a short period, suggesting increased confidence in the token.

Buffington noted that investors believe ONDO is offering a discount at its current price, considering its recent appeal to institutional investors. He observed that IntoTheBlock’s data revealed that the trend may continue, with interest from large entities and deep-pocketed individuals remaining sustained.

After the non-farm payroll report, traders' bets on a December rate hike surged to as high as 85%. Wall Street analysts believe the report provides room for further rate hikes, bringing renewed pressure for a hike at a time when post-election market concerns over slowing AI development might dampen expectations. Some remain cautious about a December hike, as stock market volatility and AI investment prospects could restrain the Federal Reserve. "New Fed News Agency" notes the report has not shaken the Fed's outlook on economic growth and inflation, but whether AI asset sell-offs change financial conditions could become a new variable for the December decision. Attention should be paid to whether Waller values lagging employment data or forward-looking market signals.
