Growth Comparison Across Four Epochs
In light of Glassnode’s attention on BTC, four distinct Epochs have been analyzed for growth comparison. These Epochs have shown a slight decrease in relative growth, while absolute growth has risen, reflecting the growing number of non-zero addresses.
To begin, Epoch 1 covers addresses on the BTC network totaling one million, with a growth rate of 1.3M%. Epoch 2 recorded an impressive growth of over 784M% across 8 million addresses. Epoch 3 accounted for 21 million addresses, achieving a growth of 233%. Lastly, Epoch 4 documented 16 million addresses, resulting in a 54% growth for the BTC network.
Each Epoch reveals some fluctuations in growth rates on the network. Over the past three years, nearly 200K non-zero addresses have been added with balances of 1 or more BTC, bringing the current total to 981K addresses.
Moreover, Bitcoin’s growth has reached 72.64% Year-to-Date (YTD), despite inflation prompting increased rate hikes. The 18th week of BTC’s on-chain data suggests that short-term holders dominate approximately 95% of total inflows compared to long-term holders.
