A Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia study found that small and medium Bitcoin wallets significantly increased trading activity within 15 minutes after large Bitcoin transfers (over $50 million) were publicly flagged by Whale Alert. This surge in activity was not observed in Ethereum wallets, which showed little reaction to similar whale alerts. The study suggests Bitcoin's simpler transaction structure may make whale movements easier to interpret as market signals, while Ethereum's complex ecosystem involving smart contracts and exchanges dampens such responses. The effect on Bitcoin trading activity was short-lived, returning to normal within an hour, and the study does not claim that following whale alerts is profitable, leaving open questions for future research.
