Historic Accumulation Rate

Definition

Historic accumulation rate measures the pace at which an asset, like Bitcoin, has been acquired and held by investors over extended periods. This metric analyzes past buying trends, particularly by long-term holders, to identify patterns of investor conviction during different market phases. A high accumulation rate often signals a belief in the asset’s future value, even during price declines, suggesting that significant supply is being moved into strong hands. It provides a backward-looking perspective on investor sentiment and market structure.
