ChainCatcher news, 10x Research posted on social media that more and more people believe there is a supply crunch for Bitcoin, especially as Bitcoin ETFs and MicroStrategy continue to accumulate, reducing the available supply of Bitcoin and laying the groundwork for a potential "squeeze" market.In the past 30 days, centralized exchanges have recorded a net outflow of 124,000 Bitcoins. Coinbase, which has the largest Bitcoin reserves, saw an outflow of 72,000 Bitcoins, accounting for nearly 10% of its total balance. Binance experienced an outflow of 29,000 Bitcoins, leaving 570,000 remaining. Other major exchanges, such as Gemini, OKX, and Kraken, also experienced significant outflows, with Kraken's outflow accounting for about 7-8% of its holdings.If these trends continue and demand remains strong, the market may face a serious Bitcoin supply crunch. In particular, the introduction of Bitcoin ETF options could further exacerbate this situation, triggering additional gamma squeezes and amplifying upward price momentum.

ChainCatcher news, according to Glassnode data, the Bitcoin Long-Term to Short-Term Holder Supply Ratio (LTH/STH Supply Ratio) has dropped to 3.78, setting a new low for this cycle. This metric reflects the dominance of long-term holders in Bitcoin supply relative to short-term holders. Over the past 30 days, the distribution of holdings has accelerated, and HODLing is no longer the mainstream behavior in the market. The decline in the LTH/STH Supply Ratio indicates that more investors are inclined towards short-term trading rather than long-term holding.Glassnode analysis suggests that this trend is different from historical market top characteristics; in past analyses, even during periods of declining long-term holding, Bitcoin prices could still continue to rise.

ChainCatcher news, according to Bloomberg, artificial intelligence (AI) companies have significantly outpaced cryptocurrency mining enterprises in energy demand for data centers, becoming a new dominant force in the global electricity market. AI technology giants are willing to pay up to three times the price of electricity compared to Bitcoin miners to support their data centers. This fierce competition is forcing Bitcoin miners to turn to marginalized or intermittent power sources.MAR Holdings CEO Fred Thiel stated that the electricity costs paid by AI companies are much higher than those of crypto miners, putting the latter under survival pressure. For example, his company recently acquired a wind farm in Texas to maintain operations, but this type of power supply is not stable. Additionally, the disadvantages that crypto miners face in loan default rates and financing costs make electricity suppliers more inclined to cooperate with technology giants.It is worth noting that the recent surge in Bitcoin prices, surpassing $100,000, may slow down the trend of miners' data centers being acquired. However, industry experts predict that Bitcoin miners will be further pushed into marginal markets that cannot meet AI's electricity demands, such as inefficient power facilities in remote areas. This competitive landscape indicates that the energy demand patterns of the AI and cryptocurrency industries are undergoing significant changes, while also revealing the relative weaknesses of miners in terms of technology and capital capabilities.
