Bitcoin Long-Term Holder Supply Hits Historic Surge
A new CryptoQuant report highlights a critical shift in market dynamics: Bitcoin's long-term holder (LTH) supply has surged to historically significant levels, sending a rare and powerful signal to the market.
The report tracks the monthly net change in the supply of coins unmoved for over six months — the standard threshold for categorizing holdings as “long-term.” CryptoQuant emphasizes that this isn’t about wallet addresses or user behavior, but rather the age of the coins themselves.
Coins Bought Above $95K Are Now Classified as Long-Term
The current uptick in LTH supply reflects coins acquired during the $95,000 to $107,000 price range — and now, having remained untouched for over six months, they are entering the long-term supply category.
“This indicates a high-conviction holding mindset,” the report notes. “Even with BTC trading above $100,000, holders of these coins are not selling.”
Historically, such strong LTH inflows have only occurred six times throughout Bitcoin’s entire history. Each instance preceded either a major rally continuation or marked a durable market base, adding weight to the current signal.
Why This Signal Matters Now
This surge in long-term supply comes at a time of elevated prices and increased institutional involvement. The willingness to hold through high valuations reflects a maturing market and suggests that investors are viewing Bitcoin as a long-term store of value, not just a speculative asset.
CryptoQuant urges market participants to treat this behavior as a strategic signal, especially as it often precedes strong trend continuation and coincides with broader accumulation phases.
Conclusion: A Rare Commitment to Hold
As BTC consolidates above $100K, the long-term supply surge adds critical on-chain confirmation that conviction remains strong. With history showing only a handful of similar events, the market may be setting the stage for another leg upward—or at the very least, a resilient price floor.
