Bitcoin rallied to a new record high over the weekend, peaking at $125,559 late on Saturday.
The momentum comes as bitcoin supply on exchanges sits at a six-year low. Several industry watchers pointed out that a similar situation in 2019 had triggered a major supply squeeze before a significant bull run.
“This rally revealed something crucial: long-term holders have cooled their selling intensity. They’re still distributing, but with far less conviction,” noted digital asset investment firm Swissblock.

“This eases supply pressure and allows new participants to accumulate.”
Meanwhile, institutional demand for bitcoin continues to be a strong catalyst for bitcoin’s price.
Bitcoin spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) saw a major resurgence last week, recording approximately $3.24 billion in weekly inflows, marking their second-largest week on record.
