Long-Term Bitcoin Holders Sell 1.1 Million BTC During Price Surge

Recent trends in the crypto market suggest that selling by long-term investors indicates bullish sentiment. Key points include:

  • Long-term holder supply has decreased to about 13 million BTC.
  • Over 1 million BTC transferred from long-term to short-term holders during the recent price rise above $100,000.
  • This shift represents strong demand at prices exceeding $90,000.
  • The rate of selling by long-term holders has slowed, indicating a more cautious approach.

Exchange Data

  • BTC held in centralized exchanges has dropped to 2.7 million from over 3 million in six months.
  • This decline is viewed as bullish but may be influenced by coins moving into ETF wallets rather than individual withdrawals.
  • Adjusted exchange balance remains over 3 million BTC when accounting for coins moved to ETFs.
