What’s new? According to analytics company Glassnode, the number of bitcoin wallets with balances of more than 10 000 BTC increased significantly in November. Thus, the figure increased to 40 000. This is most likely due to a drop in the quotations of the asset. As of November 17, 10:40 UTC, BTC is trading at $16 44, down by 1,29% in 24 hours, according to Binance.
