Bitcoin (BTC) hit a fresh six-month low for exchange outflows over the holiday season, Glassnode data shows.
BTC volatility indexes have reached a new low after users adopted the cryptocurrency following trends in the ongoing bear market. The ongoing FTX bankruptcy and crisis have also failed to slow down cryptocurrency withdrawals and outflows.
Glassnode data also showed outflow peaks of around 143,000 BTC but have subsided tenfold from 14 November, when FTX filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, to 25 December.
Christmastime saw outflows slow to just 9,352 BTC, nosediving to 93.5 percent. On-chain data also reveals a trend of holding onto coins and a stronger conservative approach to transactions.
According to a HODL Waves metric, based on unspent transaction outputs (UTXOs) categorised by age, users have begun moving coins, featuring wallets unused for one to two years, in December.
The news comes after PeckShieldAlert noted a massive transfer from accounts on crypto trading platforms Poloniex and Genesis, totalling 9.878 Ether (ETH) and 13,103 ETH, respectively.
The account transactions took place on 19 December and had not seen any activities for roughly four years, triggering speculation across social media.
