Many people want to understand, what is the current level of BTC's chip concentration?



Let's first look at a recent set of on-chain data, which is quite interesting. From mid-December to the end of the month, the average USD value of a single BTC transaction showed a significant decline—on the 14th, the daily average was about $46,610, and by the 30th, it dropped directly to $24,897, a decrease of over 40%. Meanwhile, the price of BTC remained quite stable, basically ranging between 87,000 and 88,000.

This contrast is worth pondering. Transaction sizes shrank but price support remained unchanged—what does this indicate? Participants' trading behavior is indeed undergoing subtle changes. Large transactions decreased, small transactions increased. This structural shift often signals a change in market participants' sentiment. The looseness of chip distribution might be more pronounced than we imagine.

Large orders drop 40%, but the price still holds firmly... This wave of retail investors is entering the market, and the chips are really loosening up.

Large orders decrease while small orders increase, are the chips really dispersing? I don't quite believe it; it might just be a routine end-of-year shakeout.

honestly the avg transaction value collapse is just noise if you're not running a proper regression analysis on transaction count velocity simultaneously. everyone's fixating on the price stability but completely ignoring the endogenous factors driving participation patterns. correlation ≠ causation, people.

Big players are all holding back their big moves, while retail investors are becoming more and more active, huh.

ngl this average tx size drop is lowkey screaming distribution anxiety to me... like ur whales r getting real quiet while retail starts panic-trading, that's textbook market trauma manifesting on-chain 🧠
