Whale movements remain crucial in the cryptocurrency market as they often confirm possible future market actions.

Large-scale investors influence sentiments within the marketplace, resulting in heightened price volatility. 

Moreover, crypto expert Michael van de Poppe expects magnified volatility in the crypto market this week, citing Wednesday’s FOMC, employment data, and developments surrounding CZ sentencing and Hong Kong’s ETFs.
