Well, look at this! Apparently, Bitcoin’s long-term holders (LTHs) are finally loosening their grip. Or, are they? On-chain data says their netflow is up recently, so maybe those diamond hands are taking a breather. Finally.
Bitcoin LTH Net Position Change: Is the Resilient Selling Over? Maybe.
Chris Beamish from Glassnode decided to drop a post on X, talking about the latest in Bitcoin LTH behavior. So, these LTHs? They’re the folks who’ve held onto their BTC for at least 155 days. Because who wouldn’t want to watch their coins do absolutely nothing for months, right?
Statistically speaking, the longer they hold, the less likely they are to sell. Makes sense. LTHs are the backbone of the whole ‘HODL’ movement. We love them. They’re resilient. But, of course, they also sell sometimes. And guess what? It’s happening right now. How charming.
The chart shared by Beamish is… well, telling. As you can see, Bitcoin LTH Net Position Change has been pretty negative lately, showing a delightful surge in selling as the price dropped in Q4 of 2025. Apparently, even the toughest of the tough had a moment of weakness when BTC dipped to its low around $60,000. Who can blame them?
The graph clearly shows the Bitcoin LTH Net Position Change diving deep as the price crashed. Selling pressure? Oh, it’s there. But, wait. Since that dramatic plunge, the net position has started climbing back up. Isn’t that cute? It’s still negative, but not as bad as before. Chris Beamish (who, by the way, is the voice of reason here) says, “After months of sustained net selling, LTH net position change is now easing, suggesting that selling pressure from seasoned holders is moderating as BTC stabilizes.” So, are the LTHs done selling? We’ll see.
In other news, Bitcoin keeps trying to break that pesky $70,000 mark, only to be met with profit-taking. Oh, Bitcoin, you lovable tease. Glassnode spotted this little gem on X.
The chart here shows the 12-hour moving average (MA) of Bitcoin Net Realized Profit/Loss. Spiked above $5 million per hour when BTC rallied on Monday. Looks like every time it gets close to $70,000, someone’s cashing in. “The asymmetry reflects the fragility of the current demand structure,” says Glassnode. Well, isn’t that just the most poetic way of saying ‘BTC might be a little fragile right now’?
BTC Price
Bitcoin’s had a slight dip since the Monday rally. It’s now chilling at around $68,500. Talk about a rollercoaster.
