60-Day SOPR (entity-adjusted) reset without falling below one.

This indicates a high HODLing conviction from new investors, as coins that were bought in 2021 did not move at a loss during this last dip.

Long-Term Holder MVRV at 20+ has been a good indicator of #Bitcoin market tops in previous cycles.

In bull markets old coins tend to move more. This increases the relative supply of younger coins in the network.

At previous $BTC tops, around 50% of the #Bitcoin supply was younger than 6 months.
