Recently, Bitcoin has recorded a historical spike in the movement of ten-year coins, marking the largest event in recent times. Long-term holders have also increased their controlled BTC supply to record levels.
Incredible Spike in Ten-Year Coins
The ten-year age band of Bitcoin showed the largest spike when over 80K dormant BTC was recently moved. This observation was made based on data from Coin Bureau, which described it as the largest daily movement of decade-old coins in Bitcoin's history.
Record Levels of Long-Term Holder Supply
Long-term holders of Bitcoin have pushed the supply to a record high of 14.5 million BTC. According to Glassnode, wallets inactive for over 155 days now control the largest portion of the total BTC supply. This trend reflects strong holder confidence amid price volatility in 2024 and 2025.
Market Analysis of Wallet Behavior
Divergence in wallet behavior is observed: some whales are reallocating capital while others maintain their holdings. Such actions may indicate broader tax strategies, liquidity deployment, or institutional preparations for new market conditions.
The Bitcoin market shows both historic movements of assets and record confidence among long-term holders. Despite potential price fluctuations due to the activity of large holders, long-term holders provide lasting price support.
