🤔 45% Of Bitcoin Hasn’t Moved  

Word On The Street: Nearly half of the available Bitcoin (BTC) supply has remained unmoved over the past six months.

The details:

  • Although Bitcoin reached a new all-time high approximately five months ago, a significant portion of BTC investors continues to hold onto their assets.

  • Glassnode’s analysis of the realized cap HODL waves indicator reveals that over 45% of all Bitcoins have remained dormant in wallets.

  • Long-term holders —those who have held coins for at least 155 days—did distribute some of their holdings before and after the all-time high.

Why it matters: This optimism suggests that despite short-term concerns, there may be significant growth potential for Bitcoin as global financial conditions evolve.
