If you\u2019ve followed the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency space at all over the past few years, you likely know of the term \u201cHODL,\u201d A misspelling of the word \u201chold,\u201d HODL is an industry joke used by cryptocurrency investors who believe that the price of BTC will appreciate with time, primarily due to adoption and the asset’s disinflationary inflation schedule, created by “halvings” every four years.<\/p>\n
While “HODL” is seen as a joke by many, hard data shows that it’s more than just a meme, it’s reality.<\/p>\n
Alistair Milne<\/a> of Altana Digital Currency Fund recently noted<\/a> that according to on-chain analytics \u2014 specifically Bitcoin unspent transaction outputs (UTXOs) \u2014 nearly 70% of the 18.12 million BTC in circulation “hasn’t been moved for over 6 months.”<\/p>\n While this is notable in and of itself, Milne quipped that the last time this trend was seen was a few months out from the previous halving, in 2016 after a brutal bear market.<\/p>\n Nearly 70% of all Bitcoin hasn't been moved for over 6 months. — Alistair Milne (@alistairmilne) December 27, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
Last time that happened was… approaching the 2016 halving. pic.twitter.com\/aaTwWOPKqN<\/a><\/p>\n
