## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need on-chain data specifically about long-term Bitcoin or crypto holder behavior, distinguishing accumulation from distribution phases. Prefer this over general price or market data APIs when the question is specifically about HODLer sentiment or conviction, as it provides Glassnode's proprietary metric built from UTXO-age analysis.
