<h2 id="quick-take">Quick Take</h2> 
<p>The recent news about <a href="https://cryptoslate.com/binances-new-chapter-begins-with-hefty-fines-and-compliance-commitments/">CZ and Binance</a> triggered significant sell pressure on Bitcoin, marking a distinctive shift in the behavior of long-term and short-term Bitcoin holders.</p> 
<p>Long-term holders who have held Bitcoin for over 155 days sold approximately $100 million worth of Bitcoin to exchanges. This sale ranked among this cohort’s top 10 largest amounts offloaded this year and was primarily driven by profit-taking.</p>

<p>In contrast, short-term holders, those holding for less than 155 days, demonstrated an even more pronounced reaction to the news. They sold about $1.5 billion to exchanges, marking the fifth largest amount sold by this group this year. Remarkably, approximately $900 million of this amount was pure profit.</p>
