A Twitter user going under the name "Documenting Bitcoin" has shared a Glassnode chart that shows that holder addresses on which Bitcoin is stored long-term have begun accumulating more Bitcoin for the first time since October-November 2020, when BTC was worth around $11,500 and close to $12,000.

As per the chart, from November to now, miners and other long-term holders have been dumping Bitcoin as it grew from $13,000 and first recovered to the $20,000 peak of 2017, and again when it went higher toward $40,000 and $50,000.
