# Whale Accumulation

## BTC: Coinbase Premium Index

This is the price difference between Coinbase's BTCUSD pair and Binance's BTCUSDT pair. The higher the premium means that Coinbase whales are accumulating Bitcoin despite the higher price. The 2020 bull-run was driven by institutional investors and high net-worth individuals in the U.S., and they were using Coinbase. When the Bitcoin price broke 20k, 30k, and 40k, the Coinbase premium was more than $50.

## BTC: All Exchanges Inflow Mean (7-day MA)

Whales tend to realize profits when retail investors are active in the market. This indicator is the 7-day moving average on the All Exchanges Inflow Mean. Bitcoin price is likely to go up when whales are active in the market in the long term. When this indicator goes below 1 BTC, it means retail investors are involved, and it's likely to be bearish.

## BTC: Grayscale holdings / GBTC Premium

Institutions are also holders. They agree on the digital gold narrative and have decided to hold Bitcoin in order to hedge inflation, among other strategies. Many U.S. institutions buy Bitcoin through Grayscale (GBTC) and can contribute to GBTC's premium. Our users often use this indicator as a bullish signal.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://userguide.cryptoquant.com/vi/quickstart/huong-dan-tinh-nang-5-phut/top-10-presets/whale-accumulation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
