Analysts argued that a further recovery in Bitcoin price could signal potential selling pressure from STH (Source Threat) sources.
“…These investors hold approximately 5.7 million $BTC, and only 8% of them are currently in a profitable position. This situation could lead to increased selling pressure with every price recovery.”
The analytics firm also noted that Strategy, the largest institutional Bitcoin bull, was also at a loss, arguing that the losses were not limited to STHs.
Strategy stated that it holds 762,000 $BTC and that its average cost is around $75,600, consistent with recent resistance levels.
“Strategy’s realized price (762K $BTC) is at the level of $75,600.”
The market is reacting precisely to this level from where the recent rally was rejected.”
Analysts noted that the average cost price for Bitcoin is approximately $54,000, adding that historically, this price indicates a bottom.
“Meanwhile, the average cost basis (Actual Price) is approximately $54,000.”
In past bear markets:
The price usually returns to this level or remains below it.”
