CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. noted that the share of Bitcoin short-term holders in the realized market cap has dropped to 23.5%, a multi-year low, while long-term holders now account for 52.5%, nearing the historical peak of 55% seen in 2018. Three months ago, short-term holders made up 40% and long-term holders 42%. Axel Adler Jr. stated that the decline in short-term holder share reflects reduced speculative turnover, while the rise in long-term holder share indicates the asset is aging and remaining dormant, with supply concentrating among strong hands. He also added that if demand does not return, low activity levels may persist, potentially leading to further price declines.
