Bitcoin Retail Exits As Wallets Decline At Fastest Pace In 2 Years

Bitcoin is experiencing its fastest decline in non-zero balance wallets in nearly two years, with 245,000 addresses liquidated in just five days, according to on-chain data from Santiment. This significant drop in the "Total Amount of Holders" metric suggests a potential retail investor exodus. The selloff follows a recent price surge, indicating these smaller investors may be taking profits due to skepticism about the rally's sustainability. Historically, similar periods of wallet capitulation, whether during price rises or falls, have preceded the start of major bull runs for Bitcoin. As the trend unfolds, Bitcoin's price has remained relatively stable around $80,100 after retracing from its recent highs.

Expert Predicts What Will Happen To Bitcoin Price Amid The Miner Shift To AI

Expert Charles Edwards warns that Bitcoin miners are rapidly pivoting to AI, which could negatively impact BTC's price and network security. Public mining firms expect Bitcoin revenue to drop from 90% to 30% in 2-3 years, driven by stock performance incentives—companies targeting over 80% AI revenue saw shares surge 500%. This shift reduces investment in new mining hardware, potentially weakening network security. Additionally, miners are selling BTC holdings aggressively, with over 32,000 BTC sold in Q1 2026, creating sell-side pressure. The halving rewards and low hash prices further squeeze profits, suggesting industry leaders lack long-term Bitcoin price confidence.

Bitcoin Supply In Profit Drops Sharply, Echoing Previous Bear Market Levels, Downtrend To Continue?

Bitcoin's price has failed to recover significantly since its all-time high, reinforcing bearish sentiment. The supply of BTC in profit has sharply declined to around 59%, nearing levels last seen during the previous bear market. This indicates that nearly half of all Bitcoin is held at a loss, well below the historical average of 75%. Analysts suggest that if the profit supply drops to 50%, it could signal a market bottom, though current conditions point to a potential accumulation phase rather than mass selling. Additionally, the MVRV Z-Score has not yet entered the bottoming zone, suggesting the bear market may continue for another six months, with another major price drop likely.

Bitcoin whales’ losses cross $337 mln in Q1 2026: What it means for BTC

Bitcoin (BTC) has been in a prolonged downtrend since its peak of $126k in October 2025, falling below the Short-Term Holder (STH) Realized Price and leaving over 45.8% of the total supply at a loss. In Q1 2026, investors holding 100 to 10,000 BTC realized $30.9 billion in losses, with whales accounting for $337 million in daily losses—the highest rate since the 2022 bear market. Long-term holders contributed approximately $200 million in daily losses. This aggressive loss realization suggests the market is not yet at a cycle bottom, as historical lows formed when daily losses cooled to around $25 million. Current market conditions indicate indecision, with upside volatility at 1.9 and downside volatility at 1.6. If loss realization continues and demand weakens, BTC could drop to $62,500. Otherwise, it may continue consolidating between $65k and $70k.

Bitcoin miner Soluna Holdings scales AI operations, invests $53 mln in ‘Project Dorothy’

Soluna Holdings, a green Bitcoin mining company, has acquired a wind farm in West Texas for $53 million as part of its 'Project Dorothy' to expand renewable energy sources and data center operations. The investment is projected to generate up to $24.4 million in annual revenue. The firm mines an average of 9 BTC monthly and also offers hosting services to other miners. This move aligns with a broader industry trend where Bitcoin miners, including Bitdeer, Core Scientific, and others, are increasingly pivoting to AI infrastructure due to shrinking BTC revenues. Post-halving rewards reductions and falling Bitcoin prices have led to miner distress, with potential sell-offs threatening to delay market recovery.

Bitcoin looks fragile in Q2: Rising FUD signals bearish pressure for BTC

Bitcoin enters Q2 under significant bearish pressure as macro fears dominate sentiment. Geopolitical tensions, particularly the Iran-U.S. conflict, are the primary driver of market FUD, with an 86% probability of continued disruption. This has eroded investor confidence, preventing a FOMO-driven rally. Technically, BTC has slipped below $70k, with key support at $65k. On-chain data reveals growing stress, with 8.2 million BTC held at a loss. Large holders (whales) are realizing losses exceeding $200 million daily, indicating capitulation and heightened volatility. Historically, Q2 rebounds are possible, but the current risk-off environment and weakening conviction resemble the 2022 bear market, increasing the likelihood of a deeper downside rather than a recovery.

$349M liquidations in 24 hours: Is the crypto market in panic mode?

In the past 24 hours, the crypto market experienced significant liquidations totaling $349.84 million, largely triggered by President Trump’s address regarding potential military escalation with Iran. Bitcoin and Ethereum led the sell-off, dropping 3.89% and 3.63% respectively, with BTC briefly falling to $66.2k. The broader financial markets also reacted, with the S&P 500 losing $550 billion in under 30 minutes and oil prices surging to $107.65 per barrel. Most liquidations were from long-position traders, reflecting heightened bearish sentiment. Bitcoin's funding rate turned negative, indicating strong short-term pessimism. Technically, BTC faces a critical resistance at $69k, and a break below $65.6k could signal further downside toward $63.3k. The conflict's prolonged impact may push the market toward a deeper correction.

Longs Recede, Volatility Weakens, Bitcoin Locks in $60K-$70K Range

Bitcoin remains range-bound between $60,000 and $70,000, with early signs of accumulation in spot markets and a reset in derivatives positioning. Overhead supply remains a key structural issue, with approximately 8.4 million BTC held at a loss, concentrated between $80,000 and $126,000. Long-term holder realized losses have risen to around $200 million per day, indicating ongoing distribution. While Coinbase spot flows have turned slightly positive, demand remains tentative. Corporate treasury buying has narrowed significantly, with only one major player continuing consistent accumulation. Perpetual funding rates have reset to neutral, and implied volatility has softened across the term structure. Options skew shows renewed defensive positioning, and negative gamma below the spot price suggests vulnerability to amplified downside moves. The market lacks a clear catalyst and appears to be in a redistribution phase rather than a trending environment, requiring stronger demand or further supply absorption to break out.

Why Bitcoin’s supply imbalance is hinting at more downside before recovery

Bitcoin has been in a bearish trend since October 2025, declining 46% from its all-time high of $126K. Large and mid-sized investors still hold 68% of the BTC supply, indicating that a broader distribution phase and structural market reset have not yet occurred. Short-term holders are likely to sell on any price bounce, as seen in the recent rejection at $76K. The UTXO Profit Count Percent further suggests market weakness, with its 365-day moving average at 87.5%—well above levels seen in previous cycle bottoms. Based on historical post-halving cycles, the market bottom is estimated to occur around late September to early October 2026, implying further potential downside before recovery.

Bitcoin Lingers Below $70,000 As Resistance Holds Strong – Here’s What Whales Are Up To

Bitcoin remains below the $70,000 resistance level, signaling weakening market structure and a shift toward bearish sentiment. This has influenced whale activity, with large holders opening short positions amid fading bullish momentum, while retail investors continue buying long. Analyst Crypto Tice highlights this divergence as a significant signal, suggesting whales anticipate further downside. Additionally, over 21,700 BTC recently moved to exchanges, all sold at a loss, indicating potential panic selling. Historically, such capitulation often precedes a market bottom, suggesting Bitcoin may be nearing a local low despite current pressure.
