This cohort is significantly underperforming in today\u2019s market.<\/p>\n<p>Research consistently shows that the longer investors retain their assets, the less likely they are to sell. Given their brief holding duration, STHs typically represent the weaker side of the market. In contrast, the \u201clong-term holders\u201d (LTHs), who have maintained their BTC investments for over 155 days, are often the steadfast investors.<\/p>\n<p>As depicted in the chart below, short-term holders currently possess approximately 5,198,409 BTC.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The ongoing trend indicates a declining STH supply, illustrating that many coins are transitioning into the LTH category.
