Thus, considering the current trend, the on-chain expert believes that the addresses below 1 BTC will increase constantly and reach 351,000 in the near term.<\/p>\n<p>As prices continue to rise, this trend may be an indication of grassroots <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/new-investors-driving-bitcoin-demand-metrics-reveal-institutional-adoption\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">demand<\/a> and decentralized adoption propelling Bitcoin\u2019s distribution.
