Whale Meaning

In the context of finance and cryptocurrencies, a whale refers to an individual or entity that holds or trades a significant amount of a particular asset. Because their positions are large relative to market liquidity, whales can influence prices if they buy or sell suddenly.

Their actions are closely watched by other traders, who may try to anticipate price movements based on whale behaviour.

Whales include early adopters, institutional investors, and large trading firms.
