Bitcoin Holders Play Hard to Get – Will They Crash or Cash In? Find Out! 💰😂

Marvelous Money Mishaps! Or just Bitcoin’s Bumpy Ride?

Bitcoin’s short-term holders are about as profitable as a mime in a shouting contest – barely 5% in almost a year! 🎭💾 But hey, they’re still hanging on like that one last slice of pizza – because the risk of selling is cheaper than a movie ticket.

Bitcoin (BTC) has been dancing within a multi-month “upward” channel, occasionally taking a breather like an athlete before the big game. BTC’s been above $100k for a glorious 56 days straight, proving it’s got more stamina than a caffeinated squirrel. đŸżïžâ˜•

While Bitcoin’s on its rollercoaster reaching all-time highs, our short-term heroes are stuck with tiny gains, just enough to make you yawn, as CryptoQuant’s Darkfost points out. Yawn, indeed.

The Short-term Holders: The Financial Fortress of Fragile Nerves

Darkfost says these brave souls haven’t cashed out more than 5% in profits over ten months! That’s like trying to hold a balloon underwater – impossible and a little sad. 🎈💩

These investors’ SOPR (that’s Supply-On-Price-Ratio for the uninitiated) has stayed below 1.05, which is fancy talk for “we’re just playing it safe
 or too scared to sell.” When STHs sit in such limbo, it’s usually because they jumped into the rally fashionably late, like showing up at a party after everyone left. đŸŽ‰đŸš¶â€â™‚ïž

And as the week rolled on, more of these short-term holders slipped into the “loss” side – from 190k BTC to a whopping 1.27 million BTC, which is about as fun as a root canal without anesthesia. Checkonchain, you’re hilarious! 😬

They Still Hold On – Like That One Clown at the Edge of the Circus Ring

Despite losing smarter money, these one-trick pony short-term holders are still clutching their BTC like it’s the last Twinkie in the apocalypse, hoping for a rally. Because who doesn’t love a comeback story, right? 🍿

The sell-side risk – that’s fancy Wall Street talk for “Will they sell, or won’t they?” – has plummeted to a tiny 0.0007. Basically, they’re hanging on like grim death. Time to dust off those “HODL” shirts, my friends. đŸ§„đŸ’Ș

And if you think this low-risk scenario is just the calm before the storm, you’re right – history suggests the market’s about to take a breather from the selling frenzy, like a cat plopping down after a sprint. đŸ±đŸ’š

Meanwhile, the age of coins – whether young or old – isn’t changing much. Short-term holders are roughly 47%, with about zero movement in the past month (boring as watching paint dry…).

The RVT ratio is also taking a nap at 0.058, showing these short-term holders are chilling, not stressing, probably planning their next Netflix binge – I mean, big move. 🍿📉

All this “resting” activity has historically been a good sign – like a boxer recovering for the next round, with fewer downside punches in sight.

What’s the Future? Will Bitcoin’s Playground Come Back?

Bright minds at AMBCrypto say these stubborn short-term holders are holding tight despite the losses – like holding onto a questionable date because maybe, just maybe, they’ll change their mind! 😉

With selling pressure fading faster than your latest diet promise, Bitcoin could bounce back, maybe even wave hello at $117k (fingers crossed, unicorns dancing!). But beware: if panic sets in, the price could nose-dive like a clumsy acrobat, falling to support at about $112k.
