CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost stated in a post that Bitcoin long-term holders (LTHs) are generally more stable than short-term holders (STHs) and less sensitive to market volatility, so monitoring their fund activities helps assess selling pressure. Data shows LTHs’ current realized profit is approximately 72%. While this level appears high, it remains far lower than previous market phase peaks—for instance, in December 2024, LTHs’ realized profit once neared 350%. Currently, LTHs are in a relatively mild profit-taking phase, a level close to that seen during the prior bear market, which may prompt most long-term holders to wait rather than sell off en masse immediately.
