Inactive Bitcoin addresses have hit all-time highs across 1, 3 and 5 year time period!

On-chain data suggests that Bitcoin holders are accumulating BTC with exchange holdings down to yearly lows and the percentage of inactive BTC supply at all-time highs.

According to Glassnode’s Bitcoin supply last active chart, inactive BTC that has not moved from an address for more than one-, three- and five-year time frames has been at all-time highs since July 2023.

These metrics are mirrored by Bitcoin analytics from CoinMarketCap, which tracks wallet addresses by how long they’ve been holding BTC. An estimated 69%, or 36.8 million addresses, have held BTC for over a year.
