CryptoQuant: Bitcoin Long-Term Holders Selling at Highest Rate This Year

Published at 2025-11-13 20:30:08

On-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant reports that long-term holders (LTHs) of Bitcoin are selling aggressively, reaching the highest level recorded so far this year. That uptick in LTH distribution is notable because these holders typically act as a stabilizing supply sink; heavier selling from this group increases circulating supply and has coincided with renewed price pressure.

The move matters because it can change market dynamics: diminished support from patient holders makes prices more vulnerable to short-term shocks and liquidity-driven declines. Traders and investors should watch related on-chain signals — such as realized loss/profit bands and exchange inflows — for confirmation, as sustained LTH selling could prolong or deepen corrective action in BTC markets.
