Bitcoin's Million-Dollar Hesitation: Hodlers' Unwavering Faith

Author : Renuka K

A recent poll by MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor reveals a bold stance among Bitcoin holders, with over a third expressing reluctance to sell even if BTC prices soar to $1 million. The survey, drawing over 87,000 responses, indicates that 30% of participants would consider selling at $100,000, while others have higher thresholds, with 19% waiting for $250,000 and 14% for $500,000 per BTC​​​​​​.

This steadfastness among hodlers is contributing to an increasing dormant Bitcoin supply, suggesting a strong belief in Bitcoin's future value. The market dynamics show a contrast, with some profit-taking in bull markets and panic selling in bear markets, influenced by major players like whales, corporate holders, and emerging ETF issuers​​.

Despite this strong hodler sentiment, Bitcoin's price has been relatively stable in the recent period, trading around $43,940. Resistance is noted at $44,000, with a significant level at $47,000 suggesting potential upward movement before any market correction. This scenario occurs amidst a slight decline in altcoin values and the overall cryptocurrency market capitalization​​.
