🌊 Illiquid Bitcoin Supply Reaches New High, Good for the Market or Potential Sell-off Risk?
Bitcoin’s “illiquid” supply has reached a new high, accounting for 74% of the circulating supply! What does this mean? Simply put, more and more Bitcoins are being hoarded, and these coins may not be traded on the market in the short term.
Analyst James Van Straten mentioned in the latest X post that this phenomenon reflects that Bitcoin’s liquidity is decreasing. The so-called “liquidity” refers to the flow of Bitcoin from one address to another. If the Bitcoin in an address rarely moves, then this part of the supply is considered “illiquid”.
This trend may be good news for the Bitcoin market. Why? Because it means that the number of Bitcoins available for trading in the market is decreasing, which may put upward pressure on the price of Bitcoin. Just like scarcity makes things more valuable, if there are fewer Bitcoins available for sale, those who want to buy may have to bid higher.
However, this may also mean a change in market sentiment. On the one hand, this shows investors’ confidence in Bitcoin and they are more willing to hold it for the long term rather than sell it. On the other hand, if market sentiment suddenly changes, these "illiquid" bitcoins may turn into selling pressure and cause a shock to the market.
In general, the increase in the illiquid supply of Bitcoin may indicate that the market is becoming more mature and investors are more inclined to hold for the long term. This may have a positive impact on the long-term price trend of Bitcoin, but it may also bring new market dynamics and challenges. It is also an important trend for cryptocurrency investors to pay attention to!
As of now, Bitcoin is trading at about $64,900, up more than 3% in the past week. Contract players should manage their positions well to avoid the risk of liquidation caused by huge fluctuations.
