According to on-chain Bitcoin<\/strong> expert XBTManager, a recent $1.7 billion worth of “dormant<\/em>” Bitcoin transfer raises questions over possible increasing selling pressure in the cryptocurrency market.<\/p>\n

XBTManager said in an Aug. 13 post on CryptoQuant that between Aug. 11 and Aug. 12 29,206 Bitcoin<\/strong>\u2014which had been idle for up to three years\u2014were moved on-chain. Especially, on Aug. 11, 18,536 BTC<\/strong> that had been inactive for two to three years were transferred, clearly exerting influence on Bitcoin’s price. A few hours later, 5,684 BTC that had been idle for three to six months also were moved. Along with 2,394 BTC dormant for 3-5 years, 4,986 BTC inactive for 3-12 months were also transferred on-chain the next day.<\/p>\n

“Moving these long-dormant Bitcoin usually results in more market sales pressure. This may lead to declining prices in times of limited liquidity, which can possibly persist,<\/em>” XBTManager said.<\/p>\n

Market Sentiment Remains Mixed Amid Bitcoin Movements<\/h3>\n

Though the migration of these inactive monies raises questions, several experts still see bright mid-term future for Bitcoin. Following cooler-than-expected US Producer Price Index (PPI)<\/strong>, Bitcoin has been “boosted by the continuous improvement in risk sentiment and sell-off in US yields<\/em>” IG Markets analyst Tony Sycamore pointed out. Sycamore said that Bitcoin, having just shown a false break below $50,000, might extend advances towards the $70,000 barrier level in the next sessions.<\/p>\n

In their Aug. 13 market analysis, Glassnode analysts called the state of the industry today one of “discernible uncertainty.” Still, they also saw a rising inclination among Bitcoin owners for HODLing. The experts noted that the market went into a protracted “supply distribution” after Bitcoin’s March all-time high. This tendency seems to be reversing lately, especially in bigger wallets\u2014often linked with exchange-traded funds (ETFs). These big wallets appear to be returning into an accumulating period.<\/p>\n

Overall, the Glassnode report concluded that the current on-chain conditions reflect an “undertone of high conviction” among Bitcoin holders, suggesting that despite short-term volatility, many investors remain confident in Bitcoin’s long-term value.<\/p>\n
