The fact that BTC has been struggling to break $16,000 over the weekend turned out to be a major buying opportunity for a big chunk of the market.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This positive sentiment isn't anecdotal \u2014 on-chain data shows clear signs of increased adoption that defies the bear market.<\/p>\n<h2>Addresses holding BTC at an all-time high<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">CryptoSlate analysis showed healthy network adoption. Characterized by an uptick in daily active users, a higher transaction throughput, and an increased demand for block space, growing network adoption has historically been a bullish sign.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">One of the best measurements of network adoption is the number of non-zero balance addresses. Growth in the number of addresses holding BTC indicates a larger degree of on-chain activity taking place on the network. A reduction in the number of non-zero balance addresses usually indicates consolidation, as wallets begin purging their assets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Data from <a href=\"https:\/\/glassnode.com\/\">Glassnode<\/a> has shown a significant increase in the number of non-zero balance addresses on the Bitcoin network. The net address growth began in mid-October and then skyrocketed as November began. This growth was followed by an equally sharp increase in the number of non-zero balance addresses, as indicated in the graph below.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_276763\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-276763\" style=\"width: 1800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-276763\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/glassnode-studio_bitcoin-new-address-growth-1.png\" alt=\"bitcoin net address growth\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1013\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/glassnode-studio_bitcoin-new-address-growth-1.png 1800w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/glassnode-studio_bitcoin-new-address-growth-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/glassnode-studio_bitcoin-new-address-growth-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/glassnode-studio_bitcoin-new-address-growth-1-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/glassnode-studio_bitcoin-new-address-growth-1-1536x864.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-276763\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Graph showing the net address growth on the Bitcoin network from January 2021 to November 2022 (Source: Glassnode)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p1\">Digging deeper into on-chain data shows that the majority of non-zero addresses were created in the past month.
