According to Milk Road (@MilkRoadDaily), the number of Bitcoin shrimp addresses—wallets holding less than 1 BTC—has sharply declined, dropping from 558,000 at the 2021 peak to 260,000 today, marking a four-year low. This data suggests a significant reduction in small holder participation or possible consolidation among retail investors, which may impact Bitcoin’s liquidity profile and short-term volatility. Such a trend can signal shifting investor demographics and could influence entry strategies for traders tracking retail accumulation cycles and on-chain activity. Source: Milk Road on X, May 22, 2025.
