Long-Term Investors' Buying Spree Expands Despite Bitcoin's Downturn... Surpasses 2017 Record
Long-term Bitcoin holders' net long position surged to a six-year high, surpassing the 2017 peak. CryptQuant's on-chain data shows a 129,000 BTC increase in net long position over 30 days as of May 24, 2026. This indicates long-term investors are adding to their holdings despite the bear market, contrasting with speculative traders reducing positions. The rally followed the buying spree, with Bitcoin rebounding 15% to $66,000 from $58,000, sparking speculation of further gains toward $70,000.
💡 AI analysis: The structural shift of supply from speculative traders to long-term holders reduces Bitcoin's liquidity volatility and establishes a much higher price floor, signaling an impending supply shock during periods of renewed demand.
