Bitcoin continues to climb upward even in the face of a Federal Reserve interest rate increase and the rejection of the Clarity Act, while blockchain metrics point toward a potential depletion of willing sellers. Mitchell Askew, who serves as the Head of Blockware Intelligence, analyzes the supply held by long-term participants, which reached a historic peak of 15 million BTC during the summer. He clarifies why such a massive volume of dormant coins indicates additional upward potential for the asset’s valuation. Furthermore, he discusses what current Bitcoin exchange-traded fund movements demonstrate regarding institutional participants re-entering the digital asset space.
