Bitcoin Community follows the legendary HODL mantra
Community members continued to reinstate crypto’s inevitable growth, specifically claiming Bitcoin’s dominance given its increasing institutional adoption. Yesterday, CoinGape reported that despite the ongoing bear and a phenomenally hiked fear index, it was determined that Bitcoin Miners’ unspent supply is only 500 BTC below the All-Time-High (ATH).
However, the crypto market appears to be back on track with the global market cap reaching $2.25T, following a 3.89% hike over the last day. Additionally, according to CoinMarketCap’s data, the total crypto market volume over the last 24 hours is $98.84B, which makes a 21.54% increase. Lastly, Bitcoin’s price is back up, surpassing the $48k mark and aiming to touch the $55k bracket soon. Bitcoin’s dominance is currently 40.81%, an increase of 0.22% over the day.
#Bitcoin miner unspent supply is currently sitting just 500 $BTC below ATH.
These coins are issued to miners as a reward for solving a block, but have never been spent onchain.
Miners started HODLing significantly more $BTC since March 2020.

Bitcoin Vs Dollar
The most notable comparison between Bitcoin and the US dollar took over headlines sooner than later, post the commencement of rising inflation in the United States. With a surge in inflation, eminent players had come forward to warn the public against the US Dollar’s crash followed by Bitcoin’s steep fall.
On one hand, the US dollar’s devaluation is pitched as an opportunity to accumulate more debt to further take advantage of the fallen interest rates, on the other hand, Bitcoin’s crash is also projected as an investment opportunity by many billionaires. So together the crashes may be considered to go hand-in-hand with accumulating more Dollar debt to channel it towards the purchase of more Bitcoin.
