According to our data, 17% of Bitcoin Cash’s 14.35 million holding addresses are controlled by whales.

A Lookonchain data also hints that HODLer addresses only increased marginally from 24.34 million on September 24 to a current figure of 24.39 million addresses. For cruisers, there was a significant reduction from 653,710 addresses on September 22 to 618,460.

In August, Marks shared another post that confirmed his earlier prediction. In the post, he iterated that the asset continues to hold its key bullish pattern.

BCH (Bitcoin Cash) prices confirmed a Hidden Bullish Divergence and have since displayed MAJOR STRENGTH, but there can be much greater coming with a target of $3,745.89 that’s in play! With this target, another +683% climb could take place to reach it and this divergence looks to be helping prices into the fulfillment of this process.

Meanwhile, another analyst identified as World Of Charts has predicted that BCH could target $800 in its next move. According to him, the asset would first have to breach multiple key resistance levels to attain this height.
