The online publication mentioned above noted that traders who acquired Bitcoin at below $8,000 are long-term investors, according to notes coming from the report.
“Approximately 11.46 million Bitcoin belong to this cohort. Despite the extreme market movement, these holders have remained resolute in their market views — only 150,000 of the 11.46 million Bitcoin were seen to have moved on-chain,” says the report.
It’s been also revealed that “profit-taking or panic selling” was limited among these holders.

More than that, it’s expected that BTC will skyrocket following the halving process that is set to take place in May 2020.
