Bitcoin\u2019s latest move to around $101,000 is a reflection of shifting on-chain conditions as once-immobile supply begins to stir.<\/p>\n

After months of steady accumulation, long-term holders are starting to distribute, ETFs have pivoted from inflows to outflows, and liquidity pressures are reshaping the market\u2019s balance between supply and demand.<\/p>\n

Beneath the surface, the data reveals a mechanical tension building between issuance, fund absorption, and holder behavior, setting the stage for Bitcoin\u2019s next real squeeze.<\/p>\n

Over the last week, Bitcoin<\/a> ranged between $99,500 and $103,000, with the price retreating from recent highs as long-held coins were moved and new issuance met softer demand from funds, including back-to-back net redemptions in early November.<\/p>\n

The core driver sits on-chain.<\/h2>\n

After months of net accumulation, roughly 62,000 BTC left illiquid cohorts since mid-October, the first notable downtick in the second half of the year.<\/p>\n

The shift reflects long-duration wallets realizing gains into strength around clustered cost bases.<\/p>\n

Before this pullback, illiquid supply had climbed toward 14.3 million to 14.4 million BTC, representing nearly 72% of circulating coins, a multi-year high for the share held by low-spending entities. When that stock loosens, float expands, and rallies stall until demand clears the extra supply.<\/p>\n

The path from stall to squeeze is mechanical. Post halving issuance runs at about 3.125 BTC per block, roughly 450 BTC per day. The fixed trickle now interacts with three moving parts: the pace of long-term holder distribution, the rhythm of miner selling, and the capacity of funds and treasuries to absorb all of it.<\/p>\n

If ETFs and balance sheet buyers take more coins than issuance plus distribution, price climbs as available float thins. If they fall short, price cuts are made while older cohorts reduce their exposure.<\/p>\n

Fund flows have turned into a headwind in the near term.<\/h2>\n

U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs logged sizable net outflows in early November,\u00a0with approximately\u00a0$566 million<\/em>\u00a0on Nov. 4 and a further\u00a0$137 million<\/em>\u00a0on Nov. 5, before a partial offset with roughly\u00a0$240 million<\/em> of inflows on Nov. 6, according to\u00a0Farside<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Multi-day redemptions nearing $2 billion<\/em> across products highlights\u00a0how concentrated U.S. demand can amplify swings in absorption. The breadth of that demand still matters because U.S. flows remain concentrated in a single large issuer; when creations stall there, aggregate absorption often falters.<\/p>\n

Long-term behavior is also in motion. Glassnode<\/a>\u2019s ‘Week On Chain' notes net distribution from long-duration cohorts, visible in Spent Output Age Bands, as older slices contribute more on green days.<\/p>\n

Average dormancy ticked to a monthly high in early October, a pattern that often clusters near local tops or transitions when seasoned wallets take profits into strength. The same framework helps identify the turn; a fade in spending from the over one-year bands during up days has preceded renewed upside in past cycles as supply re-tightens.<\/p>\n

Miner behavior sits on the margin, but it moves the needle when hashprice is low.\u00a0Issuance is fixed, yet\u00a0the net position change for miners dipped into a negative range in late summer, and transfer spikes to exchanges reappeared on\u00a0CryptoQuant<\/a> dashboards in mid-October.<\/p>\n

If fees or price lift hashprice, distribution typically slows, and if revenue compresses, hedging or sales can add 200 to 500 BTC per day to outflows, enough to flip tone when fund demand is near balance. This relationship can be tracked alongside Glassnode\u2019s miner net position change<\/a> and Hashrate Index<\/a>\u2019s hashprice, which has weakened again in November.<\/p>\n

The cost basis rails mark the trend.<\/h2>\n

In prior advances, the Short Term Holder realized price flipped from resistance to support as broader demand absorbed coins distributed by older cohorts.\u00a0Reclaiming and holding that line after pullbacks has tracked constructive phases, while losing it has coincided with range-bound markets as long holders continue to trim.<\/p>\n

A simple balance sheet captures the setup at today\u2019s price. At roughly $101,000 per coin, the daily issuance of about 450 BTC equates to approximately $45.45 million. ETF flows can be translated to coins by dividing dollars by the price, so $50 million is ~495 BTC per day, and $200 million is ~1,980 BTC.<\/p>\n

The recent surge in long holder distribution, roughly 62,000 BTC since mid-October, averaged about 4,430 BTC per day if spread over two weeks, indicating a spike rather than a steady pace. The sign of net absorption, demand minus issuance and distribution, determines whether the float tightens or loosens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Scenario<\/th>\nETF demand<\/th>\nLTH net distribution<\/th>\nMiner net<\/th>\nNet absorption<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Stalemate<\/td>\n$50M \u2248 ~495 BTC\/day<\/td>\n2,000 BTC\/day<\/td>\n~0<\/td>\n-1,955 BTC\/day, supply exceeds demand<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

(Miner net assumed ~0 in baseline scenarios; sensitivity rises if daily miner outflows reach 200\u2013500 BTC.)<\/em><\/p>\n

The market\u2019s stall and subsequent retrace fit the math.<\/h2>\n

The illiquid supply declined in October as older coins were moved, fund demand turned negative for several sessions, and miners experienced small outflows.<\/p>\n

That combination increases tradable float and caps momentum until the mix flips. When long-term holder distribution slows and ETF issuance outpaces printing again, illiquid supply can resume climbing, and prices can advance without large new cash inflows.<\/p>\n

According to\u00a0Glassnode\u2019s Illiquid Supply Change<\/a>, a turnaround in the 30-day rate would confirm reaccumulation, particularly if U.S. ETFs and new listings abroad return to consistent net creations.<\/p>\n

Macro still matters as a backdrop. Research from NYDIG frames Bitcoin as a liquidity barometer that responds to the dollar and real interest rates, rather than an inflation hedge. Tighter global liquidity and a firmer dollar into early November have coincided with weaker bids, a reminder that the dollar's\u00a0path into year-end remains relevant for flow velocity.<\/p>\n

For traders watching the tape, the checklist is concise and straightforward. Track the Illiquid Supply Change for a turn higher, watch the short-term holder realized price during dips, and monitor the mix in Spent Output Age Bands for a fade in over one-year spends on green days.<\/p>\n

Additionally, keep daily ETF creations in coin terms next to the ~450 BTC per day issuance line. If miners ease distribution while those gauges improve, the float tightens and the range gives way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
