Explore the holder groups
The gauge above reads the market as one crowd. These pages split it into groups and follow each one: what they hold, what they paid, and what they are doing with it.
From the smallest wallets to the largest: who owns the coins, what each group paid, who is in profit, and who is moving.
By how long they've held →How long every coin has sat still: which ages are selling and at what profit, how much each age moves, and the coins that may be lost for good.
By when coins last moved →Every coin tagged by the year it last changed hands: how much of each year's class is still sitting, what those coins last went for, and how that bet looks today.

How we score the buy / sell indexSix holder signals, each leaning buy or sell, rolled into one 0–100 reading.
The Buying / Selling Index blends six things Bitcoin owners do with their coins: long-held coins sitting still or moving, coins going onto or off exchanges, money moving in or out of Bitcoin funds, what big holders are doing, whether miners are selling, and whether the oldest coins are waking up. Each one leans toward buying or selling, scaled by how big the move is compared to normal. We roll them into one reading from 0 to 100. Low means coins are being sold, high means they are being bought and held, and the middle means the crowd is split.
The score combines the six measures named above. Four wider reads add detail in the table without changing today's score.
