In 2025, nearly $300 billion worth of previously dormant Bitcoin has re-entered circulation, according to K33 Research. This significant movement marks one of the heaviest distributions by long-term holders in over five years, as reported by CryptoQuant. The influx of Bitcoin was initially absorbed by strong demand from spot Bitcoin ETFs and crypto investment firms. However, with ETF flows turning negative, a decline in derivatives volumes, and weakening retail participation, the market is now facing increased supply pressure. This shift is occurring in a more fragile market environment, raising concerns about potential impacts on Bitcoin's price stability.
