Bitcoin long‑term holder accumulation hits record as price steadies near $65,000
On May 24, 2026 long‑term Bitcoin holders added a net 1.29 million BTC in a 30‑day period, the strongest weekly inflow in six years, while total long‑term holder supply rose to a record 16.83 million BTC. Supply in profit climbed to about 57.5%, up sharply from a June‑30 low of 46.2%.
Bitcoin traded around $65 k, rebounding from a July low of $57.8 k. Technical signals such as a recent golden‑cross and a support zone near $61 k suggest bullish momentum, though the $68 k resistance remains a key hurdle.
In Q2 2026 corporations accumulated roughly 115 k BTC (≈$7.4 bn) while retail investors sold about 78 k BTC, shifting ownership toward corporate treasuries. Spot‑Bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows approaching $1 bn over seven trading days, though a brief outflow reversal on July 23 was driven largely by BlackRock’s IBIT fund.
Regulatory optimism in the United States, highlighted by progress on the CLARITY Act, and continued institutional inflows—spot‑ETF net inflow of about $430 m—have bolstered market sentiment despite ongoing macro‑uncertainty.
