Meanwhile, micro holders are showing their sharpest plummet in holdings since December, 2024.

🕵️ This is undoubtedly related to the Coldcard hacks, which began around the same time these accumulation turning points happened. The uncertainty related to the CLARITY Act, and the stagnant (and boring) prices for retail, are also contributors.

👍 With the pattern of key stakeholders accumulating and small holders dumping, the probability of $70K+ $BTC becomes more and more probable compared to the likelihood of sub-$60K.
