Bitcoin tried its hand at taking down $100,000 on a couple of occasions during the weekend, but each was met with a severe correction that pushed it south hard. In fact, the largest cryptocurrency <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/crypto-market-cap-slumped-by-300-billion-amid-btc-altcoin-massacre-market-watch\/\">dumped<\/a> by over six grand twice and slipped to $94,400 on Monday and Tuesday, where it actually found the necessary support.<\/p>\n<p>It <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/xrp-jumps-6-daily-btc-eyes-98k-after-drop-to-94k-market-watch\/\">bounced off<\/a> yesterday in a quite impressive fashion, gaining almost eight grand in less than a day from its aforementioned bottom to $102,000 (local peak on Bitstamp).<\/p>\n<p>These violent price swings <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/over-1-4-billion-in-liquidations-as-bitcoin-btc-dumps-by-6k-in-hours\/\">liquidated<\/a> over 500,000 over-leveraged traders at one point and they usually tend to push the so-called \u2018weak hands\u2019 out of the market. However, those with stronger convictions, usually larger investors, use these corrections to accumulate more of the asset.<\/p>\n<p>This was the BTC case, according to on-chain data shared by popular analyst Ali, who noted that 342 big wallets (containing at least 100 bitcoins) were created during this retracement.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Bitcoin?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#Bitcoin<\/a> whales are buying every dip!
