Bitcoin Long-Term Holders Increase Selling, Impacting BTC Price
- On-chain data indicates Bitcoin long-term holders (LTHs) have increased their selling activity.
- LTHs are defined as investors holding Bitcoin for over 155 days without transactions.
- Recent selling has contributed to Bitcoin’s price falling below $100,000, currently at $98,500.
- The LTH supply reduction follows similar selloffs during the rallies in early and mid-2024.
- The last significant coin maturation into the LTH category peaked in mid-2025.
The recent increase in selling by Bitcoin long-term holders has coincided with a bearish trend in the market, causing the price to dip below $100,000. This behavior mirrors previous cycles where LTHs sold during market rallies.
As of now, Bitcoin is priced around $98,500, down by approximately three percent over the last day due to this accelerated selling activity by long-term holders. Source
