On-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant has pointed out how Bitcoin has tended to revisit or stay below the Realized Price in past bear markets. Currently, this level is located at $54,000. Bitcoin Hasn’t Gone Below Realized Price This Cycle In a new post on X, CryptoQuant has talked about what the Realized Price is telling us about Bitcoin right now. The “Realized Price” here refers to an on-chain indicator that keeps track of the cost basis or acquisition level of the average investor on the BTC network. When the spot price of the asset is trading above this metric, it means the addresses as a whole are in a state of net unrealized profit. On the other hand, BTC’s value being below the indicator suggests an underwater status for the overall network. Related Reading: Bittensor (TAO) Rallies 35%, But Social Sentiment Stays Mixed Now, here is the chart shared by CryptoQuant that shows the trend in the Bitcoin Realized Price over the history of the cryptocurrency: As displayed in the above graph, Bitcoin broke through the Realized Price at the end of the 2022 bear market and since then, the asset has maintained above this line. This suggests that investors have enjoyed net profits in this period. Recently, the cryptocurrency has faced some notable bearish momentum, but so far, it has managed to stay some distance above the Realized Price. Currently, the metric is situated at $54,000. From the chart, it’s visible that past bear markets generally saw Bitcoin spend time at or below this level. When the majority of the investors are in loss, selling pressure with the motive of profit-taking starts running out, so it may be why the asset historically found bottoms below the metric. While the holders as a whole are still in the green, a significant segment of the userbase is already underwater at the current price levels. As the below chart shows, the Realized Price of the short-term holders has been floating some distance above the spot price recently. The short-term holders refer to BTC investors who purchased their coins within the past 155 days, so their Realized Price tracks the average buying price of coins that moved over the last five months. With the spot price currently being under this level, it would appear that this group is in a state of loss. “Recent buyers are underwater, creating sell pressure on every bounce,” noted the analytics firm.

Every major is red on the day as the war enters its fifth week with no resolution, though ETF inflows of $2.5 billion over the past month and net exchange outflows suggest institutional accumulation beneath the surface.
Bitcoin’s market structure is showing a split signal: institutional demand through ETFs is accelerating, while short-term holders are still selling into exchanges at a loss. That divergence is helping explain why BTC has held up near the $70,000 area even as retail stress remains visible in on-chain data. In his latest Morning Brief, Axel Adler Jr. said US spot Bitcoin ETFs absorbed 62,986 BTC over the past 30 days, equal to $11.3 billion in net inflows between February 24 and March 25. Over that stretch, cumulative ETF holdings rose to 1,326,874 BTC. The pace of buying also picked up materially. Adler said the 7-day simple moving average of ETF flows reached 3,288 BTC per day, versus 1,256 BTC for the 30-day average, meaning the current weekly pace is running about 2.6 times above the monthly trend. That institutional bid has so far outweighed episodic outflows and coincided with a move in Bitcoin’s price from $64,100 to $71,307 over the same month. Adler’s read is that ETF demand is providing a floor, but not a clean breakout signal on its own. For that to happen, he argued, the short-term flow trend needs to stay positive for several more sessions and the market still needs to avoid a fresh run of negative macro-driven ETF days. Related Reading: Analyst Who Predicted Bitcoin $125,000 Top Reveals What To Expect Next The other side of the picture is far less constructive. Adler said short-term holders remain firmly in a loss-realization regime, with loss-side flows to exchanges at 15,500 BTC per 24 hours. Total short-term holder inflows to exchanges stood at 35,200 BTC per day, a sign that selling pressure remains active even if it has not yet reached the kind of extreme typically associated with final capitulation. Bitcoin STH Stress Eases But Whales Prevent Rally That broader stress signal is partly offset by a separate observation from Darkfost, who argued that panic behavior among newer holders has eased meaningfully since the February flush. He wrote: “When BTC fell below $60,000, a wave of panic emerged among the youngest investors (STHs), pushing them to send around 100,000 BTC (7-day sum) to Binance at the beginning of February. This behavior has evolved significantly, as these STH inflows to Binance have now been divided by four. Today, these inflows have reached their lowest recorded level, at around 25,000 BTC.” That does not contradict Adler’s thesis so much as refine it. Retail stress is still there across exchanges, but the most acute panic phase may be fading. Darkfost framed the shift as “a rather positive signal,” adding that the drop in Binance inflows represents “a real reduction in selling pressure” during what he called a difficult period for risk assets. Related Reading: Bitcoin Recovery Lacks One Key Ingredient, Glassnode Warns Even so, order-book data suggests Bitcoin is not yet out of the woods on the upside. CoinGlass flagged “heavy sell wall at 72.3k–72.6k” and called it “key resistance on any bounce.” It also pointed to near-term bids around $69,200, stronger support at $68,200 to $68,500, and deeper liquidity around $67,000 to $67,500. In CoinGlass’s words, “This is a classic setup of heavy overhead supply with layered bids below. Unless BTC reclaims the major sell wall overhead, short-term price action still looks more likely to sweep lower liquidity first before staging a stronger bounce.” Taken together, the data points to a market where institutional accumulation is absorbing supply fast enough to steady price, but not yet force a decisive breakout. The constructive case is straightforward: ETF demand remains well above trend, panic selling among short-term holders continues to cool, and Bitcoin holds above $70,000. The risk is just as clear. If ETF flows roll over and the market fails to clear the $72,300-$72,600 sell wall, the next move could still be a sweep into lower liquidity before any stronger recovery takes shape. At press time, BTC traded at $69,573. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

A close above $1.40 could send the price to $1.4120. The next hurdle sits at $1.4380. A clear move above the $1.4380 resistance might send the price toward the $1.450 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $1.4650 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $1.50. Another Decline?

Bittensor has enjoyed a sharp surge of more than 35% over the past week, but data indicate the social media crowd is still not overly bullish toward the altcoin. Bittensor Has Broken Out With A Sharp Rally This Month While the wider digital assets sector has been stuck in a phase of consolidation recently, Bittensor has been among the few tokens that have stood out. Since March 8th, the altcoin has jumped by 94%, nearly doubling in value. Related Reading: Bitcoin Whales Go Silent: Large Transactions Plummet The chart below shows how TAO’s recent trajectory has looked: As is visible in the graph, Bittensor saw a peak above $370 on Wednesday, but the asset has since retraced back to the $340 level. Nonetheless, it remains over 35% in the green for the week even after this pullback. TAO’s breakaway from the rest is likely to be a result of its AI-focused narrative. In a nutshell, the blockchain operates as a decentralized marketplace where machine-learning models compete to produce useful outputs, with rewards in the token being handed out based on their performance. Bittensor’s rapid surge in recent weeks has meant that its standing in the sector has considerably improved, with its market cap today ranking as the 27th largest, according to data from CoinMarketCap. From the above table, it’s apparent that with a market cap of about $3.65 billion, TAO is now ahead of the likes of Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Toncoin (TON). The gap to Sui (SUI) in 26th place is also quite narrow, so if the bullish winds continue, it’s possible that the coin may flip it in the near future as well. While Bittensor’s rally has been impressive on paper, the retail crowd doesn’t seem to be buying into the hype, if social media data is anything to go by. TAO Is Seeing The Third Worst Social Media Sentiment In Six Months As pointed out by analytics firm Santiment in an X post, social media discussions related to Bittensor have shot up recently, implying that the rally has caught the eyes of the masses. Despite Social Volume on major platforms like Reddit, X, and Telegram being at its second-highest level in six months, sentiment has interestingly been quite balanced. As displayed in the chart, Bittensor’s Positive/Negative Sentiment metric is sitting at a value of 1.5, meaning that there are three bullish comments for every two bearish ones on social media platforms. While positive sentiment still dominates, the negative bias is actually the third strongest for the past six months. Related Reading: Dogecoin Supply Barrier: This Level Holds Cost Basis Of 28 Billion DOGE Thus, it would appear that FOMO hasn’t yet developed among the retail investors. “This is generally a good sign that the rally can continue, with little interference from greedy traders that typically signal forming tops,” noted Santiment.
