Billion

<p>Recent data provided by <a href="https://www.intotheblock.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">IntoTheBlock</a> highlights a notable trend: significant reductions in Bitcoin holdings by long-term investors throughout 2024. Traditionally, the actions of these seasoned holders have served as a critical indicator of market confidence and potential future price movements.</p>
<p>May 2024 marked a particularly striking point, with approximately 160,000 BTC, valued at roughly $10 billion, being liquidated. This marked the largest monthly sell-off of the year, indicating a shift in the long-term holders’ sentiment towards the cryptocurrency.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Following this substantial outflow, June witnessed a comparative slowdown in selling activities, with ‘only’ 40,000 BTC leaving these wallets. Such data points are crucial as they suggest a cooling-off period after a significant market exit, which could influence the asset’s price volatility and investor confidence.</p>

<p>Despite the substantial sell-off, <a href="https://blockchainreporter.net/price-prediction/bitcoin-price-prediction/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a>‘s market price has shown resilience though it continues to experience moderate fluctuations. As of the latest updates, Bitcoin’s trading price stands at $61,297, reflecting a decrease of 1.7% on the day, and an overall decline of about 4% over the past week. This current valuation follows a short-lived peak, where Bitcoin reached $62,314 within the same 24-hour period.</p>
<p>The recent movements in Bitcoin’s price and the sell-off trends among long-term holders suggest a more cautious approach is being adopted by some market participants. These dynamics underscore the balance between maintaining long-term investment in Bitcoin and securing profits or minimizing losses in response to market shifts.&nbsp;</p>
