Bitcoin’s showing some interesting signs lately, and one metric in particular has analysts buzzing. The Bitcoin Accumulation Trend Score just hit its highest point of 2025, reaching 0.34. Let’s break down what this means.
What is the Accumulation Trend Score?
The Accumulation Trend Score is a metric that tracks whether Bitcoin investors are accumulating (buying) or distributing (selling). It looks at changes in the balances of Bitcoin wallets, giving more weight to larger wallets. Think of it like this: a whale moving a lot of Bitcoin has a bigger impact on the score than a small investor.
- Score above 0.5: Large investors are accumulating. The closer to 1, the stronger the accumulation.
- Score below 0.5: Investors are distributing (selling) or not accumulating. A score of 0 represents extreme distribution.
The Chart Speaks Volumes
The recent chart shows a clear trend. Back in January, the score was very low (light yellow), indicating strong selling. Since then, as the price has dropped, the score has climbed steadily (darker purple), suggesting less selling pressure. The current score of 0.34 is the highest since the beginning of the year.
What Does This Mean for Bitcoin?
Glassnode, a leading on-chain analytics firm, interprets this as a sign that large investors are cautiously starting to accumulate Bitcoin again, despite the recent price dip. While it’s not full-blown accumulation yet, the trend is positive given the recent bearish market.
Current Bitcoin Price
Bitcoin’s price experienced a slight dip recently, currently trading around $84,700.
