Recently, people have been frequently asking about chip concentration. To put it simply, the current data shows that the concentration is roughly around 14.4%.
Looking at the changes on the trading side, the average single transaction size in mid-December was about $46,610. By the end of the month, it was directly halved to $24,897. During this period, the BTC price basically remained unchanged, hovering in the 87,000-88,000 range. What does this contrast imply?
In simple terms: the desire for large capital to turn over is decreasing. The speed at which chips flow from both ends of the price towards the middle has significantly slowed down, so the concentration has remained relatively stable in recent days.
Why is this happening? It’s mainly due to two overlapping factors—holiday effects combined with less optimistic market sentiment. When liquidity truly recovers, the subsequent trend usually falls into one of two possibilities:
One is that chips continue to accumulate near the critical point, and after reaching a certain level, they suddenly decline. The other is that chips experience a sharp drop directly, without hesitation.
Regardless of which scenario occurs, the BTC price is likely to experience a noticeable wave of volatility. This is a key point to watch.

Large funds are not moving, indicating they are still watching. At this point, increasing the position depends on your courage.

The concentration of chips is stuck at 14.4%. We need to wait for liquidity to recover before we can see clearly. The three-year cycle theory tells me this is the accumulation phase. Big funds are all resting.

Large funds are on holiday, no wonder trading volume has halved... Let's wait for the红包market after the New Year.

Trading volume halved but the price didn't move, now that's really strange... The big players are truly no longer interested.

The trading volume has been halved and it's still wobbling? Isn't this just big players observing? Once liquidity returns, they'll have to go through the cycle again.

A single transaction has been cut in half from 46,000 to 24,000. This is how big players are pulling a fast one.
The chips are stacked at a critical point... waiting for liquidity to return, will it explode or drop? I bet on volatility.
This pace is a bit fast, feels like something big is brewing.
