Even the recent trip to four-month lows of $53,500 for BTC\/USD failed to shake their resolve.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLooking at losses locked in by both Long-Term, and Short-Term Holders, we note that the loss taking events this week account for less than 36% of the total capital flows across the Bitcoin network,\u201d the newsletter confirms.<\/p>\n<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable=\"true\"><p>\u201cMajor capitulation events, such as Sep 2019, March 2020, and the sell-off in May 2021, saw losses account for more than 60% of capital flows over a period of several weeks, with a meaningful contribution from both cohorts.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p data-ct-non-breakable=\"true\">Long-term and short-term holders refer to Bitcoin wallet entities hodling a given unit of BTC for more than or less than 155 days, respectively. The latter term reflects the more speculative end of the Bitcoin investor spectrum.<\/p>\n<p>Glassnode produced a chart showing the distinct absence of long-term holder participation in onchain selling at a loss during the BTC price drawdown.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFollowing 18 months of up-only price action after the FTX implosion, and 3 months of apathetic sideways trading, the market has endured its deepest correction of the cycle,\u201d it wrote in part of its concluding remarks.<\/p>\n<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable=\"true\"><p>\u201cNevertheless, drawdowns across our current cycle remains favourable when compared to historical cycles suggesting a relatively robust underlying market structure.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure data-ct-non-breakable=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.cointelegraph.com\/uploads\/2024-07\/5708c57f-ef7d-4224-9de3-e27a0e8da4f7.png\" alt=\"\" \/><figcaption><em>Bitcoin relative long, short-term holder realized loss (screenshot).
