Rather than returning buyers moving away from Bitcoin after their initial purchase, the asset maintained virtually the same share, increasing by 0.46 percentage points between first and second transactions.

Its 3.3 million $ADA fee total amounted to about one $ADA for every 150 $ADA in staking rewards. Reserve emissions supplied the dominant share of the reward economy during the period. Cardano’s epoch 655 supply page offers a shorter official snapshot. It attributed 108,500 transactions and 33,855 $ADA in fees to completed epoch 654. Spread across five days, that was about 21,700 transactions per day, or 0.251 transactions per second. Fees equaled about 0.339% of roughly 9.998 million $ADA in distributed rewards for the epoch.

Widespread accumulation has historically produced clear spikes in Bitcoin’s youngest HODL Wave bands. “When it’s many investors, you expect to see spikes in buying activity. That’s happened every time across 17.5 years of Hodl Wave data except now,” Woo explained. One whale behind the bottom? HODL Waves divide Bitcoin’s circulating supply according to how long coins have remained unmoved. The youngest bands…
