Where do Whales shop for Crypto?

I'm assuming bitcoin price jumps are driven by large orders from big hege funds or people with large amounts of money/crypto.
Which exchanges would these people/companies use?
I'm interested to explore if these big orders could be detected on the order books on some of the popular exchanges.
I'm assuming that if a whale places sell order with exchange X the price will be driven down and all other exchanges will follow.
Any ideas which main exchanges are driving the price changes most of the time?

P.S. I know usually large orders are split into lots of small orders to prevent detection, but still... I feel like some exchanges must play the role of the master while others are slaves.
