Dry Powder Accumulation

Definition

Dry powder accumulation describes the process by which investors or funds gradually build up reserves of uninvested capital, typically in stablecoins or fiat, in anticipation of future investment opportunities. This activity signals a cautious market stance, where participants are holding back from deploying capital due to perceived high prices or market uncertainty. The accumulated funds represent latent buying pressure ready to enter the market. It indicates a strategic waiting period. This strategy aims to capitalize on future price declines.
