  1. Who moved the most Bitcoin over the past day?

    The 1,000 to 10,000 BTC group

    They moved 549,933 BTC, 54.3% of everything these groups moved. Relative to its size, the busiest group is 1,000 to 10,000 BTC: it holds 21.2% of these groups' coins but made 54.3% of the moves.

  2. Is a group punching above its weight?

    Both shares are measured over the same seven groups, so each column adds up to 100% and the two bars compare like with like.

  3. What should you keep in mind?

    Moving is not the same as selling. These figures count every coin that changed addresses, including coins someone shuffled between their own wallets and the change that comes back from a normal payment. A group is credited by the size it was at the moment its coins moved.

    The daily figures are rolling sums over the past day, not a calendar day, so they update through the day rather than resetting at midnight.

    An address is not a person. One holder can spread coins across many addresses, and an exchange can keep millions of customers' coins in a few. Read every group as a set of addresses, never a headcount.

  4. What does this mean for you?

    Quiet big groups are the market's normal state: most large holdings sit still for months. The signal is change. When a big group's line jumps well above its usual range, coins that normally sleep are on the move, and big moves often come before or during big price swings.

    The share table is the quickest read: a group moving a much bigger share of coins than it holds is unusually busy for its size, whatever the price is doing.

Understanding Bitcoin Spent Volume by Wallet Size

This page counts the Bitcoin each size group sent over the past day, credited to the group the sender belonged to at the moment of the move. Seven groups, one line each, across the full history, with each group's share of all coins beside it for scale.

The technical name is spent volume: the total value of coins a group's addresses sent. It is a gross figure, so it includes coins an owner shuffled between their own addresses and the change that comes back from a normal payment. That is why this page says moved, never sold.

The comparison that matters is movement against holdings. The biggest groups hold most of the coins, so of course they move the most; the question is whether a group is moving more than its share. A group that holds a fifth of the coins but makes half the moves is unusually busy, and coins that normally sleep waking up together has often come before the market's bigger swings.
