CryptoQuant: The number of short-term Bitcoin holders continues to decline, while long-term holders tend to accumulate
ChainCatcher message, the latest research from the crypto data analysis platform CryptoQuant shows that since the end of May, the number of short-term Bitcoin holders (those holding for no more than 155 days) has been continuously declining, indicating that demand is weakening. CryptoQuant's research director Julio Moreno pointed out that this phenomenon suggests that Bitcoin demand remains weak. In contrast, long-term holders seem to be accumulating opportunistically. Moreno added that if Bitcoin demand grows again, this dynamic could reverse, leading short-term holders to buy from long-term holders.
CryptoQuant contributor IT Tech believes that this dynamic could lead to mid-term price appreciation and market stability. The increase in accumulation by long-term holders may stabilize prices and prepare the market for a potential rebound, while the selling by short-term holders could exert downward pressure on Bitcoin prices in the short term. IT Tech stated that the data shows a clear flow of funds from the weak group (short-term holders) to the strong group (long-term holders), indicating market stability.
