Large Holder Distribution

Definition

Large holder distribution refers to the pattern of selling activity by entities holding significant quantities of a digital asset, often termed “whales,” across a blockchain network. This phenomenon typically involves these large holders dispersing their assets into the market, which can exert downward pressure on prices if not met by sufficient buying demand. Analyzing these distribution patterns provides insights into potential market shifts and the strategic moves of influential market participants. It can signal a period of profit-taking or a loss of confidence among major investors.
