What is it?
The total amount of Bitcoin held by long-term holders - generally those who have held for more than 155 days.
How is it calculated?
The over-155-day side of the same age-band cohort classification.
How to read it
A rising LTH supply share points to the market being accumulated by 'strong hands', generally in periods following bottoms/capitulation. A falling LTH supply (shifting to STH) shows that profit-taking/distribution has begun - a pattern typically seen in the later stages of strong rallies.
Things to watch out for
The same classification nuance from STH Supply applies - a decrease in LTH doesn't always mean 'selling'; coins that move again without being sold also shift to the STH side.
Historical usage
LTH supply has historically tended to grow during bear markets and consolidation periods (as coins mature past the 155-day threshold into this cohort); it can shrink during strong rallies as long-term holders take profit (distribution).
Frequently Asked Questions
How is LTH supply calculated?
It's the total BTC amount held in UTXOs that haven't moved for generally more than 155 days - classified according to BRK's own age threshold.
Why does LTH supply matter?
It shows the size of the market's 'convicted', less short-term-price-sensitive segment - it's also the cohort underlying indicators like Reserve Risk.
What does a decrease in LTH supply mean?
It generally shows that long-term holders have shifted into profit-taking (distribution) - a pattern typically seen in the later stages of strong rallies, not on its own a precise timing signal.
