Analysis: Bitcoin OG Whale Selling Pressure Eases Significantly, Shifts to Hodling Instead of Distribution

Analysis: Bitcoin OG Whale Selling Pressure Eases Significantly, Shifts to Hodling Instead of Distribution

BlockBeatsBlockBeats2026/01/14 10:11

BlockBeats News, January 14th, CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost stated, "The on-chain activity of Bitcoin OG whales (holders who have not moved their holdings for over 5 years) has shown a significant decline. In this current cycle, OG whale activity was unusually high. The number of UTXOs they spent significantly exceeded the level of the previous cycle."


It is also worth noting that this cycle has provided Bitcoin OG whales with an almost perfect selling window: large institutional funds entering the market, and even government-level buyers joining the market as the cycle progresses. OG Bitcoin whales' selling behavior at phase highs is continually decreasing.


The recent peak of STXO's 90-day average was around 2,300 BTC, but since then, this average has dropped significantly and is currently fluctuating around only 1,000 BTC. This indicates that the selling pace of Bitcoin OG whales has also slowed down. Their highly impactful selling pressure is significantly decreasing, and the current dominant trend leans more towards holding rather than distributing (selling)."

BUZZ - Morningstar expects Woodside's revenue growth will outpace global peers by the end of this decade

On October 9, Morningstar predicted that the revenue of Australian oil and gas producer Woodside Energy (WDS.AX) will grow by over 30% by 2030, outpacing any of its international peers. Woodside Energy’s share price dropped by 0.6% on the day to 32.12 AUD, after surging 2.6% in the previous trading session. The stock is poised to end a three-week losing streak, with oil prices rising due to escalating tensions in the Middle East, and is set for a 2.8% weekly gain O/R. Morningstar expects Woodside’s revenue to increase as major new projects come online, and forecasts free cash flow to exceed 7 billion USD after 2030, reflecting a 300% rise from 2025. The report added that market sentiment remains bearish, with the current share price below its estimated fair value of 44.00 AUD. Year-to-date, Woodside’s share price has risen 36.2%, while Santos shares are up 41.3%.
