Conviction buyers now hold nearly 4 million bitcoin, data reported by CoinDesk showed on Thursday. The total marks a 300 percent increase since the end of 2025. The two-quarter accumulation period produced the largest surge of its kind since the COVID crash, according to BitGo.

The figures indicate sustained purchasing by longer-term holders even as bitcoin prices have fluctuated. Such accumulation patterns are often tracked as signals of market sentiment among dedicated participants.

The pace of buying over recent months exceeded levels seen in other recovery periods. BitGo's analysis placed the current two-quarter inflow as the highest recorded since the market dislocation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Market participants continued adding to their bitcoin positions through both quarters. The resulting holdings approach 4 million bitcoin in the conviction-buyer category.
