Bitcoin Supply Last Moved Within 30 Days Has Been Relatively Low As per the latest weekly report from Arcane Research, despite a rise in BTC’s price recently, the supply moved within the last 30 days hasn’t risen much. The percentage of Bitcoin supply last moved in the past 30 days is an important indicator that tells us about the liquidity of the market.
