  • Large traders are responsible for violent market moves.
  • Bitcoin and major altcoins movein tight ranges with bearish bias.

The blockchain research company Chainanalysis found out that professional traders play crucial role in large market movements.

The on-chain data showed that a maximum of 340,000 people have been active Bitcoin traders on a weekly basis in 2020.  Accounting to the research data, they account for 85% of all the Bitcoin value sent to exchanges; moreover, they treat the coin as digital gold and tend to hold for the long term.

Roughly 60% of that Bitcoin is held by entities — either people or businesses — that have never sold more than 25% of Bitcoin they’ve ever received, and have often held on to that Bitcoin for many years, which we label as Bitcoin held for long-term investment.
