Investor Accumulation Phase

Definition

The investor accumulation phase describes a market period where informed participants systematically acquire digital assets, often during periods of price stability or decline. During this stage, experienced investors or institutions gradually increase their holdings, perceiving long-term value and anticipating future price appreciation. This activity is typically characterized by consistent buying pressure that may not immediately result in significant price increases, as large orders are often spread out to avoid market impact. It suggests a belief in the fundamental strength or future utility of the asset, preceding broader market rallies.
