Long-term Bitcoin (BTC) holders have slammed the brakes on asset sales, sparking widespread speculation of a rally to $100K. Over the last 24 hours, BTC climbed to a peak of $95,801, triggering a broader upswing across the rest of the cryptocurrency market.

Bitcoin OGs Make A Reversal After A Long Stretch Of Selling

According to crypto analyst Darkfost on X, Bitcoin OG selling has slumped in January after hitting a record high at the tail end of 2025. In reaching his conclusion, the pseudonymous analyst defined OGs as BTC holders with dormant coins for at least five years, citing Bitcoin’s “relatively young age.”

Darkfost noted that Bitcoin OG activity peaked in 2025, hinging his analysis on on-chain Unspent Transaction Output (UTXO) and Spent Transaction Output (STXO) data. Per the data, the last STXO peak reached a 90-day average of 2,300 BTC before plummeting to levels around 1,000 BTC in 2026.

Rather than offloading their BTC, Darkfost revealed that long-term Bitcoin holders are holding their coins amid renewed market optimism.

“This suggests that OGs have also slowed down their selling,” said Darkfost. “Their selling pressure, which can sometimes be massive, has clearly decreased, and the prevailing trend now seems to lean more toward holding rather than distribution.”

Back in November, reports of OG whales offloading their BTC flooded the ecosystem. At the time, new players like Bitcoin treasuries and governments emerged as the biggest buyers, while several analysts downplayed the impact of the OG sales.

“It’s also worth noting that this cycle offered them a perfect window to sell, fuelled by the arrival of major institutional players and even government buyers entering the market,” said Darkfost.

Bitcoin Eyes $100,000 Psychological Level

Following the decline in OG selling, BTC flashed signs of strength, reaching an eight-week high of $97,860. After weeks of trading below $90K, the resurgence stoked enthusiasm for a stronger push toward $100,000.

At press time, BTC is trading at $95K, a crucial resistance zone that analysts say can make or break the run to six figures. Analyst Michael Poppe disclosed on X that Bitcoin holding the resistance level signals buyers and could trigger a $100K valuation in the coming days.

Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be

The post Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers are off to a 2-0 start. Getty Images The Green Bay Packers are, once again, one of the NFL’s better teams. The Cleveland Browns are, once again, one of the league’s doormats. It’s why unbeaten Green Bay (2-0) is a 8-point favorite at winless Cleveland (0-2) Sunday according to betmgm.com. The money line is also Green Bay -500. Most expect this to be a Packers’ rout, and it very well could be. But Green Bay knows taking anyone in this league for granted can prove costly. “I think if you look at their roster, the paper, who they have on that team, what they can do, they got a lot of talent and things can turn around quickly for them,” Packers safety Xavier McKinney said. “We just got to kind of keep that in mind and know we not just walking into something and they just going to lay down. That’s not what they going to do.” The Browns certainly haven’t laid down on defense. Far from. Cleveland is allowing an NFL-best 191.5 yards per game. The Browns gave up 141 yards to Cincinnati in Week 1, including just seven in the second half, but still lost, 17-16. Cleveland has given up an NFL-best 45.5 rushing yards per game and just 2.1 rushing yards per attempt. “The biggest thing is our defensive line is much, much improved over last year and I think we’ve got back to our personality,” defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz said recently. “When we play our best, our D-line leads us there as our engine.” The Browns rank third in the league in passing defense, allowing just 146.0 yards per game. Cleveland has also gone 30 straight games without allowing a 300-yard passer, the longest active streak in the NFL.…
