## Resource

Bitcoins long-term holders, or conviction buyers, have amassed nearly four million BTC, a threefold increase since late 2025, valued at over $320 billion. This surge is driven by institutions like MicroStrategy, which now holds over 818,000 BTC. The shrinking liquid supply, coupled with a high percentage of new buyers in profit, suggests a stronger price floor and potential for significant price runs. Bitcoins scarcity appears to be transitioning from hype to a genuine market structure, with institutions stacking for the long term.
