According to analysts' data, short-term holders continue to be the main driver of bitcoin\u2019s (BTC) volatility.<\/p>\n<p>The market price of bitcoin stayed around $44,000 during most of last week, printing a seven-day top on Wednesday at just over $44,500, but started to decrease on Friday. Bitcoin barely managed to hold above $40,000 over the weekend but fell through on Sunday. Over the last seven days, bitcoin is down about 8%, at the moment of writing bitcoin is up 2.2% in the past 24 hours, trading at $39,145.<\/p>\n<h2>Short-term holders main driver of BTC volatility<\/h2>\n<p>According to analysts at both <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/glassnode\/status\/1494818339348226055\">Glassnode<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intotheblock\/status\/1495732663843532806\">IntoTheBlock<\/a>, short-term holders are the most likely cohort to spend their coins in response to volatility and continue to be the main driver of <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/bitcoin\/\">BTC<\/a> volatility. While long-term holders remain unfazed, the balance held by traders \u2013 addresses with BTC less than one-month holdings \u2013 are moving almost in tandem with the price action.<\/p>\n<p>Since the 24th of February, short-term holders decreased their holdings by 8.7% to 1.55 million BTC. Bitcoin short-term holders currently own 54.5% of all coins held at an unrealized loss amounting to 2.56 million BTC, creating sell-side headwinds for price.<\/p>\n<p>Markets, in general, are in a moody sentiment as geopolitical events set the tone. The Russia-<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/ukraine-legalizes-bitcoin-as-tensions-with-russia-persist\/\">Ukraine<\/a> conflict, in particular, is on the market's radar, as is the development in <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/canada-expands-aml-rules-to-include-crypto-amid-freedom-convoy-protests\/\">Canada<\/a> and elsewhere. The downward trend in bitcoin price coincided with the S&P 500 once again dropping during the past week.
