The price of Bitcoin Cash has experienced significant rise over the course of the last 30 days, resulting in favorable returns for investors. Since July, BCH holders have continuously maintained a positive perspective, which has reduced the frequency of selling activity. This collective sentiment has played a significant role in the upward trajectory of BCH, consequently yielding favorable outcomes for these holders.
The price of BCH has increased by about 13% over the previous week, giving it some of the biggest gains in the last seven days for cryptocurrency assets. According to CoinMarketCap data, the altcoin was trading at $234.78 at the time of publication.
The value of the world’s cryptocurrency market dropped to $1.06 trillion at the time of writing, a 0.1% decrease in a day. On Thursday, ETH increased by about 0.8% to $1,629, while Bitcoin (BTC) rose slightly above the $27K level.
Can Bitcoin Cash Reach New ATH This Year?
BCH is anticipated to undergo a trial of the support line at a value of $229, after which a subsequent rebound is projected. The breach of the current barrier at $253 is crucial for the potential rise of the altcoin. If this level is surpassed, it might pave the way for the altcoin to achieve new 2023 highs, beyond the $300 mark.

Long-Term Holder Addresses Up
But on September 26, their holdings had increased to 3.86 million BCH, showing a noteworthy acquisition of 120,000 BCH in just one week. Their balances are now comparable to what they were in July 2023 thanks to this accumulation, and the 120,000 BCH that the Bitcoin Cash whales purchased are worth about $25.6 million at the current market price of $213 per BCH.
Meanwhile, the increase in long-term holders of Bitcoin Cash indicates a positive outlook for the cryptocurrency’s sustainability. These committed investors, who believe in BCH’s long-term potential, contribute to a stable user base and network demand. This support from long-term holders, combined with whale accumulation, could help BCH reach or exceed $300 in the future
