This level of activity is unprecedented, marking the highest recorded since May 2021. Even more striking, a significant portion of these transfers, $2 billion on Jan. 10 and a record-breaking $2.263 billion on Jan. 11, materialized as sending profit to exchanges. This trend underscores a particular investment strategy employed by STHs that leads to a substantial profit extraction from the digital assets market.
While the data provides factual insight, careful observation of future trends becomes crucial to understanding the broader implications on Bitcoin’s price stability and market dynamics.
