Data shows that the new bitcoin bull market hodlers refuse to sell for $40,000


Bitcoin (Bitcoin) Investors continue to hold BTC at a price of $40,000, even if they bought it at a lower price in early 2021.

“Very young” supply drops

The HODL wave confirmed that, due in part to low volatility, the supply of Bitcoin is aging, and few investors are selling.

Therefore, even if a large portion of the coins are now profitable, even if they are not twice the purchase price, they are still dormant.

“Some LTH (long-term holders) have and will profit from their tokens,” Glassnode admitted.

“The common denominator in all Bitcoin cycles is that LTH spends most of its tokens on the power of a bull market rally, and slows down its callback spending as belief returns.”
