Bitcoin short-term holders ‘cooled off’ profit-taking as price sticks to $115K
The Bitcoin market is in a “relatively balanced position” despite a recent price pullback from all-time highs, Glassnode said.
Bitcoin short-term holders in profit have eased their selling activities as Bitcoin’s price continues to climb slowly above its local low of $112,000, according to onchain analytics platform Glassnode.
Profit-taking among Bitcoin Short-Term Holders (STH) — those holding for less than 155 days — has “cooled off,” Glassnode said in a markets report on Wednesday. The analytics company said that Bitcoin (BTC) STH spent volume, which measures the proportion of recent buyers in profit selling their Bitcoin, had dropped to 45%, below the neutral level.
Glassnode said figures suggest the market “is in a relatively balanced position, with 70% of STH supply still held in profit, and an almost even split of profit and loss taking in coins which are on the move.”
