Based on the data provided by Coinbase, here is the median hold time for the top 10 coins on the crypto exchange:

  • $ADA – 121 days

  • $BTC – 115 days
  • $ETH – 86 days
  • $DOT – 86 days
  • $DOGE – 81 days
  • $SOL – 78 days
  • $AVAX – 36 days
  • $USDC – 15 days
  • $USDT – 2 days

According to Coinbase:

“Long hold time signals an accumulation trend. Short hold time indicates increased movement of tokens.” – Coinbase

Throughout 2022, Shiba Inu has seen a progressive increase in its hold period. Here are some stats about $SHIB in 2022 so far on Coinbase:

  • Average hold time at the start of the year was 51 days
  • By the end of January 2022, it had increased to 71 days
  • On March 19, 2022, $SHIB had been on hold for 100 days

On Coinbase, Shiba Inu has been very stable in terms of trading activity, with:

  • 65% towards buying
  • 35% towards selling

Cardano ($ADA) has had a tough time with its growth this year. A study found that a majority of ADA holders were at a loss. A reason for the token to be held for so long could be that traders are waiting to break even, or make a profit, before selling. 

The same could be said for Shiba Inu. The token has launched its burn portal and metaverse but both have done little to push the tokens price.
