Short-Term Bitcoin Holders Show Signs of Exhaustion

André Dragosch from Bitwise has highlighted a worrying trend in Bitcoin spot exchanges, reporting a decline in net buying volumes over the past three days.

Notably, there has been a substantial rise in long-term liquidations of Bitcoin, reaching levels not seen since early August when prices were lower, indicating that short-term sellers might be losing momentum.

Dragosch mentioned that many short-term wallets have sold Bitcoin at a loss, more than during previous lows in August. Market sentiment has shifted from bullish to neutral, as reflected in the Bitwise Cryptoasset Sentiment Index.

Analysis from Glassnode reveals a shift in Bitcoin supply dynamics, with illiquid Bitcoin supply hitting a record high while both highly liquid and illiquid supplies have dropped to yearly lows. This change suggests that more Bitcoin is being held long-term.

Furthermore, Bitwise Research Analyst Ayush Tripathi noted that the supply of Bitcoin owned by long-term holders—those who have kept their assets for at least 155 days—has grown since early October. This suggests that confidence in Bitcoin as a long-term investment remains strong, even as short-term demand weakens.
