 <p>Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC <a rel="dofollow" title="price" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/price.html">price</a> stability holding firm over the weekend.</p>
 <p>Bitcoin had delivered a cool end to the Wall Street trading week, having also shaken off macroeconomic volatility catalysts from the United States.</p>
 <p>With few cues appearing since, popular trader and analyst Credible Crypto eyed a slow build-up to a trend shift on the Binance order book.</p>
 <p>“Looks like we are not ready to make a move yet,” he summarized to X subscribers on the day. </p>
 <blockquote>
  “Meanwhile, two more blocks of bids just filled. The accumulation continues. Maybe we get a slow weekend and start seeing some movement come Monday. Let's see what tomorrow brings.”

 <p>Further subtle order book changes were noted by Keith Alan, co-founder of monitoring resource Material Indicators, who spied bid liquidity moving higher toward spot <a rel="dofollow" title="price" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/price.html">price</a>.</p>

 <p>Picking up on active Bitcoin market participants, meanwhile, popular trader and analyst CryptoCon noted a major washout of speculators.</p>
 <p><strong><em>Related:&nbsp;Bitcoin speculators now own the least BTC since $69K all-time highs</em></strong></p>
 <p>Short-term holders (STHs), the cohort of Bitcoin investors who have held their coins for 155 days or less, now control less of the available BTC <a rel="dofollow" title="supply" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/supply.html">supply</a> than at any point in over a decade.</p>
 <p>Highlighting data from on-chain analytics firm Glassnode, CryptoCon described STH holdings as a “fine powder.”</p>
 <p>“In other words, there are more strong Bitcoin holders than ever before!” part of commentary added.</p>
 <p>Previously, Cointelegraph reported on the implied losses currently being endured by the remaining STH investors.</p>
