The Bitcoin holders who never sold

There's a particular breed of investor in crypto—those who accumulated Bitcoin early and simply refused to sell, no matter what the market threw at them. Through the bull runs, the crashes, the FUD cycles, they held.

Why? Some believed in the fundamental narrative. Others lacked the discipline to time the exit. Many just forgot about their stash in old wallets. But the result? They're now sitting on positions that weathered every storm since the early days.

These long-term holders represent something interesting in Bitcoin's price discovery mechanism. They reduce circulating supply pressure during rallies, they absorb volatility during downturns. Their unwillingness to sell becomes part of the market's structure.

The data tells the story: older Bitcoin UTXOs (coins that haven't moved in years) continue to accumulate. Whether by conviction or accident, these holders have become accidental diamond hands—and the market notices.
