Recently, an interesting signal has appeared in the Bitcoin market—long-term holders who have held at least 155 days are finally showing signs of accumulation after pausing their continuous sell-off from July to December.

From on-chain data, according to CryptoQuant's tracking, the total holdings of these veteran investors shrank from 14.8 million BTC in mid-July to 14.3 million BTC in December. Although the change seems small, the key point is—this distribution pressure has finally stopped. The persistent selling over the past few months has been weighing down the price, but now this situation has changed.

Meanwhile, there are also interesting movements on the Ethereum side. Observations show that large ETH holders have been buying over 100,000 ETH in recent days. What does this kind of "smart money" positioning usually indicate? They are preparing for a possible rebound.

From multiple perspectives, this is a positive technical signal—selling pressure has eased—and a bullish capital flow signal—large holders are building positions. These are good signs for a potential relief rally in the market.

Long-term holders are stopping the dump, this is getting interesting. Big players are still buying ETH, feels like a rebound is coming?

Long-term holders are finally stopping the dump; this wave is indeed quite interesting. --- Smart money is sweeping ETH; big players are really not idle. --- Wait, is the easing of distribution pressure real, or is it just another fake-out before a rebound? --- From 14.8 million to 14.3 million, just looking at the numbers I don't quite understand, but at least it's not falling further, which is a good sign. --- I've seen plenty of big players buying up, the key is whether it can truly rebound. --- I just want to know how long this signal can last, don’t let it be another flash in the pan. --- Finally, there are some signs that make sense; I've really grown tired of these past few months. --- Accumulating and sweeping, it feels like the market might move soon. --- Big players tend to build positions at the bottom; this logic makes sense, right? --- The key is that selling pressure has stopped; everything else is just details.

Long-term holders are finally stopping the dump, things are getting interesting now. Big players are sweeping ETH, smart money is in action. Honestly, the easing of selling pressure might really be a turning point. Is this wave going to rebound? Watching closely. Long-term holders are not selling anymore, it feels like a change is coming.

Long-term holders have stopped dumping, this is getting interesting. Wait, are the big players frantically sweeping ETH? Is this... laying the groundwork for something? The easing of selling pressure sounds good, but I still want to see how the trend develops later. A sweep of 100,000 ETH definitely has that feel. It's been half a year since I saw this kind of linkage signal. Now both sides are exerting effort simultaneously, and I’m starting to feel like I can't keep up.

Wait, are long-term holders really accumulating? Or are they just selling less aggressively... Can these two concepts be the same? I believe big players are sweeping the market, but don't fall for another trap of false breakout, I've seen it too many times.

Wait, are long-term holders just starting to accumulate now? I feel like it's a bit late. Whales buying up 100,000 ETH is indeed interesting, but a rebound in the market is better described as a bounce, and less favorably as a retracement. Don't be fooled.

tbh the 50m btc delta over 6 months feels like noise when we're really watching if those whales actually *hold* through the next leg down... opportunity cost of accumulation at these levels is what matters, not the signal itself
