Bitcoin\u2019s climb toward $100,000 has seen a significant amount of offloads from long-term holders, which some analysts say signals a potential top that could turn markets bearish and catch traders offside when buy-side demand starts to wane.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a game of musical chairs: enjoy the ride, but be prepared when the music stops,\u201d CryptoQuant contributor Maartuun said in a Dec. 8 X post.<\/p>\n

Long-term hodlers are offloading their Bitcoin<\/h2>\n

Since Nov. 8, long-term holders \u2014 wallets who have held Bitcoin (BTC)\u00a0 for at least 155 days \u2014 have sold 827,783 BTC worth around $82.6 billion at its current price of around $99,200.<\/p>\n

Maartuun highlighted the 149,800 BTC purchased by Michael Saylor\u2019s MicroStrategy and the 84,193 BTC worth of inflows into spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) over the same period.<\/p>\n

Still, he said that these are the equivalent of just 30% of what\u2019s being sold by long-term holders.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe overall market is much larger than just them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Maartuun suggested that Bitcoin is maintaining its strength despite the strong sell pressure from long-term holders due to retail demand also reaching its \u201cyearly highs,\u201d according to CryptoQuant\u2019s retail demand 30-day change chart.<\/p>\n

\u201cRetail is also involved in futures trading,\u201d he said. CoinGlass shows Bitcoin Open Interest (OI) \u2014 a metric tracking the total number of unsettled Bitcoin derivative contracts such as options and futures \u2014 is $61.2 billion at the time of publication.<\/p>\n

Long-term Bitcoin holders sitting on significant unrealized profits<\/h2>\n

Maartuun also claimed that the sell-side risk ratio and the net taker volume may indicate \u201ca top.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Bitbo data, the Long Term Holder realized price \u2014 the average price paid by long-term Bitcoin holders \u2014 is $24,481, representing about a 400% average gain for long-term holders.<\/p>\n

At the time of publication, Bitcoin\u2019s price was $99,203, according to CoinMarketCap.<\/p>\n

On Dec. 6, Real Vision chief crypto analyst Jamie Coutts said liquidity conditions, as expressed by his Bitcoin MSI macro model, suggest pain may come next.<\/p>\n

\u201cBitcoin has hit new ATHs in the face of a deteriorating liquidity backdrop,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Coutt said if conditions \u201cworsen, the rally, while euphoric, can only last for a limited time.\u201d<\/p>\n
