According to a recent report, the illiquid supply of BTC surpasses highly liquid Bitcoin supply 3.2x this week
Glassnode data vendor has reported that the illiquid supply of Bitcoin is now 3.2x bigger than the highly liquid one.
In the meantime, Bitcoin has dipped below $39,000 on the news of the approaching Fed rate hike.
Supply of BTC held in cold wallets spikes
As per the recent tweet by Glassnode, this week, the Bitcoin Illiquid Supply Shock Ratio has seen a major rise, reaching a high of around 2 on the shared chart.
As the data aggregator explains, the illiquid supply of the flagship cryptocurrency shows how much BTC is stored in wallets whose owners have been spending little or none of their BTC.
At the moment, the illiquid supply of Bitcoin is 3.2x bigger than the liquid supply and the highly liquid one put together.
Therefore, the amount of BTC that wallet owners are hodling tight in their cold wallets has surpassed the liquid supply of the leading crypto.
