Concerns about Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) miner selling have been resolved, opening the door to a potential rally, according to on-chain data.

What Happened: Cryptoquant data shows selling volume from miners diminishing for several reasons:

• The amount of bitcoin sent by miners to exchanges has dropped significantly since May.
• The over-the-counter trading volume used by miners for selling purposes has been digested.

Cryptoquant sees this as sufficient evidence for the start of an upward rally in the third quarter of 2024.

Bitcoin investor Mike Alfred tweeted highlighted that a push to $63,000 could cause mining stocks to explode higher.

Another trader highlighted the increased demand for miner stocks following their push for new partnerships with artificial intelligence companies.

Some of the major miners are Marathon Digital Holdings (NASDAQ:MARA), Riot Platforms (NASDAQ:RIOT), CleanSpark Inc. (NASDAQ:CLSK) and Hut 8 (NASDA: HUT).
