On April 8, according to data from Cryptoquant, the number of active Bitcoin addresses has fallen to its lowest point since 2026, marking the lowest level in nearly eight years. Analyst G a a h stated that the market environment characterized by low volatility and low speculative activity provides ideal conditions for ‘smart money’ and institutional investors to quietly accumulate large positions without causing abnormal price fluctuations. A significant decline in activity indicates that short-term investors, who bought in due to speculation and sold out of panic, have largely exited the market. Currently, the remaining participants are mainly long-term holders who are accumulating. Historically, low points in the active address metric often coincide with the most profitable long-term accumulation ranges. The ‘silence’ on the network actually indicates that the sellable supply is being absorbed by the market.
