Bitcoin’s supply, which was active over one year ago, has recently shown signs of decreasing, suggesting a shift in long-term holder behavior. The first chart illustrates a subtle but notable decline in the percentage of Bitcoin unmoved for over one year, dipping from its peak earlier in 2024. This trend hints at a potential increase in selling pressure from longer-term holders.
The second chart provides a broader historical context, highlighting that despite the recent declines, these age bands have generally trended upward over the years. Periodic decreases in these bands have historically aligned with major market cycles, where long-term holders reduce their positions, leading into bull market tops. This recent decline contrasts with the more sustained increases seen since 2013.
