Notably, this zone has consistently preceded a more bullish move in the Bitcoin price.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-760131\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Bitcoin-chart-from-CryptoQuant.png?w=512&#038;resize=512%2C288\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"512\" height=\"288\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In parallel, long-term holder supply has risen by approximately 300,000 BTC over the past 20 days. This marks a deviation from the trend of declines in the long-term holder supply since 2024. At the time of writing, 14.6 million BTC, representing about 74% of the total current circulating supply of BTC, is in addresses classified as long-term holders.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This pattern suggests that so-called &#8220;diamond hands&#8221;, i.e., investors with a strong conviction who hold through volatility, are not only refraining from selling with Bitcoin&#8217;s recent new peak, but are actively accumulating. The chart below shows the correlation between minimal LTH spending and rising price action, a behavior that also aligned with phases of Bitcoin&#8217;s uptrend in 2019, late 2020, and late 2024.<\/p>\n<h2>Why It\u2019s Bullish For The Market<\/h2>\n<p>The significant uptick in long-term holder supply, combined with minimal selling activity, reveals a hidden strength in the market. The current behavior of long-term investors also indicates their <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/newbie-bitcoin-whales-taking-profits-rally-data\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">confidence in Bitcoin\u2019s valuation <\/a>at current levels, despite the recent price surge. Many of these long-term holders are in substantial profit, yet still choose to hold. This is <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-short-term-holder-profits-climbing-data-hints-at-incoming-sell-pressure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">unlike short-term holder<\/a>s, who have collectively realized over $11.6 billion in profits <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-short-term-holders-11-6-billion-profit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">over the past month alone.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Drawing a parallel with historical data, the current decline in long-term holder (LTH) spending mirrors a similar pattern observed in September 2024. At that time, the LTH Indicator was in the minimal zone, and the long-term holder supply was also increasing steadily. <\/p>\n<p>What followed was a remarkable 96% surge in Bitcoin\u2019s price, rising from approximately $54,000 to peaks around $106,000 in December and January. If the market were to follow a similar trajectory from the current price level, a comparable 96% rally would see Bitcoin rise to a new peak near $212,000.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $109,000.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/EHo9Qm5h\/\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"2108\" height=\"1502\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin has spent the last five days trading within a relatively narrow range between $106,229 and $111,807, following its recent all-time high of $111,814.
