About this metric
What it measures
Entity-Adjusted Spent Volume Aged 5y–7y sums daily BTC transfers from coins unspent for five to seven years, excluding identified internal entity movements. Each qualifying BTC contributes its amount, without an extra weighting for its age.
How to read it
Large readings indicate a return of deeply dormant holdings to circulation; low values show limited movement from this age group. The series peaked near 94,688 BTC on February 1, 2022, compared with a 2021 annual high of only about 1,611 BTC, so occasional events outweigh a smooth cycle pattern.
The pool of five-to-seven-year coins changes as holdings age into and out of it. Recognized internal moves are filtered, but unrecognized custody changes can remain; neither a large transfer nor a long quiet stretch reveals the owner's intentions.

FAQ
Does a five-to-seven-year volume spike mean lost coins were recovered?
It establishes that the transferred coins were spendable, but not why they had been inactive. Long-term storage and custody arrangements can produce the same age without any lost-key recovery.
Are older coins given more weight within the 5y–7y band?
No. One BTC held for five years contributes the same amount as one BTC held for seven years if both meet the band rules. Coin Days Destroyed weights the duration instead.
How does the 2022 record compare with 2024 activity?
The record was about 94,688 BTC on February 1, 2022. The 2024 maximum was about 50,128 BTC on January 16; neither observation alone proves the transferred coins were sold.
