Glassnode has also included a second metric that clearly demonstrates this change: the Shrimp Supply Net Position Change.<\/p>\n<p>This metric monitors the net flow of BTC into or out of Shrimp wallets, revealing that the indicator turned negative last year when Bitcoin was peaking at new all-time highs.<\/p>\n<p>This suggests that Shrimps may have taken profits during that high price period. Now that Bitcoin has entered a bearish phase, these investors appear to be returning to buy, viewing current prices as an attractive opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>While small investors might seem slow to react, they have exhibited intelligent investing behavior in recent times, notably during the bear market lows of 2022 when they consistently accumulated BTC.<\/p>\n<p>Since their return to buying, the Net Position Change for Shrimp Supply has escalated significantly, indicating an inflow of 17,600 BTC per month into their wallets, which is notable.<\/p>\n<p>In other updates, demand for Bitcoin spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) has rebounded over the past week, as highlighted in another <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/glassnode\/status\/1878743069279080837\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">post<\/a> from Glassnode.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bitrabo.com\/discover\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1736854469_864_Bitcoin-Shrimps-Back-To-Buying-Supply-Share-Hits-69.jpeg\" alt=\"Bitcoin Spot ETF Net Flows\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1013\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After experiencing low demand at the start of the year, Bitcoin spot ETFs saw inflows reach $1.7 billion in the week beginning January 6th, exceeding the $1.35 billion average seen from October to December of the previous year.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Current_BTC_Price\"><\/span>Current BTC Price<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin continues to follow a bearish trend, and its price has decreased to $91,700.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bitrabo.com\/discover\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Bitcoin-Shrimps-Back-To-Buying-Supply-Share-Hits-69\" alt=\"Bitcoin Price Chart\" width=\"1486\" height=\"889\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recent on-chain data indicates that Bitcoin Shrimps have resumed their accumulation efforts, with their share of the total Bitcoin supply increasing to 6.9%.
