The cryptocurrency market is once again on the road to recovery after a bearish streak, but the bullish trend has not yet affected all of its participants. This included some of the holders of the flagship digital asset Bitcoin (BTC). This is evident in the number of addresses holding 0.1+ Coins as it reached an ATH of 3,530,764.

In addition to this, more than 60% of Bitcoin held in wallets hasn’t witnessed any activity in the last year and more. This means that a majority of holders are stubbornly HODLing bitcoin despite the crypto’s restated volatility. Consider this data from crypto analysis service Glassnode, the said number/metric stood at 65% at the time of writing.
