The Amount of Bitcoin Held by Long-Term Investors Has Reached Its Highest Level in the Past Year

According to data shared by on-chain data analyst Darkforth, the amount of $BTC held by long-term Bitcoin investors has started to rise again. The data shows that the total amount of Bitcoin held in LTH wallets has reached 15.26 million $BTC. This level is the highest recorded since August 2025.

Darkforth reported that the supply of Bitcoin held by long-term investors has increased by approximately 316,000 $BTC in the last 30 days. The analyst emphasized that this increase is in stark contrast to the sharp outflows seen at the end of November last year, when approximately 650,000 $BTC net outflows occurred from long-term investor wallets.

According to the analyst, the current picture shows that a significant portion of investors who accumulated Bitcoin about six months ago are still holding onto their assets without selling. Darkfost also stated that they previously isolated and tracked a movement of approximately 800,000 $BTC originating from Coinbase, and that this movement was used in various chart analyses.

Darkforth stated that it expects to see more information regarding long-term investor supply dynamics around May 23rd. This is because approximately 800,000 $BTC transferred via Coinbase will officially surpass the six-month threshold. This will lead to these $BTC being categorized as “long-term investor supply.”
