The price of Bitcoin is falling, but many patient owners are reacting differently to fear. After 12 days of selling, Bitcoin (BTC) owners returned to buying on July 11 and 12, adding a net 5,912 BTC.
The move is short and only two days. Also, BTC is still down 2% over the last 24 hours. However, this is the first switch from sell to buy since late February, a reversal that occurred before the 25% rally.
Why Long-Term Holders Move Bitcoin’s Price
Glassnode tracks its owners and updates over time. The metric measures coins that are held for about 155 days or more, so a positive reading means the group is buying faster than they are selling.

This is important because these bags are soundproof. Theirs return to accumulation pulls supply from the market, which tightens things and gives Bitcoin price room to rise.
For the last 12 days that reading was wrong, meaning that the owner was spending money on the market. Turning to the good stops the bleeding, for now.
Right now they are adding as the price goes down. Bitcoin trades near $62,717, down about 2% on the day, so this is buying weakness rather than chasing strength.
A Sign That Was Called Under February
The last trading period was bought at the end of February, when Bitcoin traded around $65,896. Since then, long term accumulation it built steadily and BTC rose to about $82,186 on May 10, a gain of about 25%.
The model was then reduced and finally modified. The operators reduced their purchases from the end of May and started selling at the end of June. Meanwhile, the price of Bitcoin fell back to $60,000 at the end of June. In either direction the curve leads the tree, not the other way around.
That’s the sequence they’re trying again. The purchase must come first, then the price tends to follow.
The new flip matches the February low, which is why traders are watching on the chain down signs They are paying attention to two days of green silence.
Week of Green ETF Returns to Turnover
The second sign points the same way. In the week to July 10, US Bitcoin ETFs pulled in about $197 million, theirs first green week after eight straight weeks of going out. Because the ETF purchase moves the real Bitcoin position, two different groups are adding at the same time.
That combination is why a long-term connector is heavier than its size suggests. Patient wallets can also read ETF conversions as their signal.
What You Should Do for Bitcoin Price
The caveat is simple. The two-day line is thin, and you need to live. If the purchase ends, the signal fails and the sale starts again.
Right now the old hands are leaning on the drop, near a Bitcoin price today more than $62,700. Turns out in February that this went on for several weeks before the price responded.
Whether there will be another rise depends on whether the streak continues into the coming week.
