The percentage of the Bitcoin supply that has remained inactive for at least a year has reached 69%, as presented in on-chain data. This milestone signifies an all-time high (ATH) of Bitcoin ‘HODLing’, indicating an increase in the growing trend of long-term investment into the cryptocurrency. This data was highlighted by the analyst, Root, who took to social media platform X to elaborate on the figures. The inactive Bitcoin supply is part of the ‘long-term holders’ (LTHs) market segment.
Long-term holders are one major faction of Bitcoin’s investor base, with the other half encompassing the ‘short-term holders’ (STHs). While the definition for these cohorts may vary slightly across different analytical platforms, the divide is commonly established around the five to six months mark. Investors with coins younger than this timeframe fall into the STHs category, and those holding for longer are classified as LTHs. The likelihood of a holder selling their coins diminishes the longer they keep them dormant. Hence, the LTHs are considered the more steadfast market group, as they exhibit patience and commitment to holding their coins even amidst market variability such as rallies and crashes. A large portion of Bitcoin’s supply presently aligns with long-term holding, which continues to show growth as the given graph presents.
