Bitcoinโs illiquid supply โ coins held by long-term investors and unlikely to be sold soon โ has hit a record $1.4 billion.
According to Santiment:
โก๏ธ Whales & Sharks (10-10,000 BTC holders) accumulated 83,105 BTC in the past 30 days.
โก๏ธ This is the largest 30-day increase of the current bull cycle.
โก๏ธ At the same time, small retail holders (<0.1 BTC) sold off 387 BTC.
โ What Does This Mean?
Illiquid supply rising means more BTC is moving into โstrong handsโ โ wallets that rarely sell.
This reduces available BTC for trading, lowering sell pressure.
Historically, similar patterns have preceded price surges, as supply becomes scarce.
โ Investor Sentiment: Growing Confidence
The data signals that big players are stacking BTC, showing confidence in long-term value. Meanwhile, retail holders are taking profits or getting shaken out during market volatility.
This whale accumulation trend often points to:
Strong market foundations
Potential for future price growth
Lower risk of sharp corrections (as supply tightens)
โ The Bigger Picture
As Bitcoinโs supply keeps shrinking from exchanges and shifting to long-term holders:
Analysts expect this supply crunch to amplify bullish momentum.
With BTC eyeing previous highs, whale behavior becomes a key market signal to watch.
