Almost all of the Bitcoin supply was held for less than a year before changing hands. As all Bitcoin transactions are recorded on a public ledger, this data is easy to track.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Bitcoin was being passed from miners to traders, to anyone else that was interested in the cryptocurrency space and that wanted a piece of the action. Even for the majority of early adopters, that were enthused by the technology, it was not generally viewed as a viable long-term investment, then it was mostly seen as an easy way to spend money online.<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_1068\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1068\" style=\"width: 2400px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1068 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/xcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/GenerationHODLERS2.png\" alt=\"Chart showing the amount of Bitcoin being \u2018hodled\u2019 in time. \" width=\"2400\" height=\"1254\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/GenerationHODLERS2.png 2400w, https:\/\/xcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/GenerationHODLERS2-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/xcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/GenerationHODLERS2-1024x535.png 1024w, https:\/\/xcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/GenerationHODLERS2-768x401.png 768w, https:\/\/xcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/GenerationHODLERS2-1536x803.png 1536w, https:\/\/xcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/GenerationHODLERS2-2048x1070.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1068\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bitcoin \u2018HODL\u2019 waves depicting the length of time Bitcoin is stored.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>However, fast-forward nearly a decade, and the percentage of Bitcoin that is being held for less than a year has dropped by approximately 60%, as depicted in the graph above.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>Whilst the percentage of Bitcoin being held for less than a year is decreasing, the percentage being held for far longer than a year is rapidly increasing, which suggests that a growing percentage of the crypto community are in it for the long haul.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>In fact, 20% of all Bitcoin in existence at the end of 2020 had been stored for more than five years.

In hindsight, it was a somewhat inevitable outcome, as Elon Musk famously\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/elonmusk\/status\/1355068728128516101\">suggested<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-will-the-sentiment-change\"><strong>Will the sentiment change?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>If belief in Bitcoin continues to increase in 2021, the data from Ark Investments suggests that the amount of fluid Bitcoin on the market could become smaller and smaller. In the long run, this may drive prices up ever higher.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>Nevertheless, there will likely always be periods where this will cease to be the case. Investors will need to take profits at some point, liquidate positions, and balance portfolios. Only a fool would expect the price of Bitcoin not to continue to be highly volatile, but it is impossible to say if we\u2019ll ever see the return of pre-2020 Bitcoin prices.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>Only time will tell whether this trend will continue long into the future and as all investors know, past performance isn\u2019t an indicator of future success. But regardless of how the market acts over the coming months, it appears to be clear that a large subsection of Bitcoin holders have no intention of giving up their Bitcoin holdings however the market reacts. Whichever way one looks at it, the birth of the hodling generation is undoubtedly a promising development for Bitcoin\u2019s role as a long-term store of value.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p><br
