While Bitcoin (BTC) continues to lose crucial support levels, an analyst has shared three possible scenarios for the flagship crypto’s upcoming performance, raising the alarm about potential early signs of a bear market. Related Reading: Ripple Exec Addresses Tax Issue On XRP Ledger, Where Does It Go? Bitcoin Price Correction Continues On Monday, Bitcoin reached a new multi-month low after dropping below $93,000 for the first time since May. The cryptocurrency started the week dropping nearly 5% from the $96,000 area and retesting the $91,000 level as support. Notably, BTC has seen a 16% correction from its November opening and has lost multiple crucial levels over the past few weeks, including the $100,000 psychological barrier and the 21-Week Exponential Moving Average (EMA) as support. Most recently, the flagship cryptocurrency closed the week below the 50-week EMA, which has raised the alarm for several market observers. Analyst Rekt Capital noted that losing this indicator is “not something we typically want to see if bullish Market Structure is to remain intact,” adding that “bear markets tend to confirm when price loses the key bullish levels that have supported upside momentum across the cycle.” He explained that Bitcoin has formed clusters of lower lows at the 50-Week EMA across the cycle, which have “helped sustain a broader bullish technical uptrend.” However, BTC is currently forming another cluster below this indicator, instead of approaching the possible macro lower high developing above the 50-Week EMA. As a result, BTC’s recent performance signals the first step of a potential breakdown, the analyst warned: A full breakdown unfolds in three parts: first, a Weekly Close below the key level; second, a post-breakdown relief rally that turns that level into new resistance; and third, downside continuation that completes the bearish confirmation. Early Signs Of A Bearish Trend? Rekt Capital stressed that the 50-week EMA will be crucial in determining whether BTC’s bullish trend and tendency for “benign downside deviations” still hold. He emphasized that if the flagship crypto fails to reclaim this indicator as support and it turns into a resistance, it could be transitioning from its downside deviation tendency to the early stages of a confirmed bearish trend. The analyst detailed that during the early bear markets, “a Weekly Close below the 50-Week EMA is followed by several weeks of post-breakdown relief rallies into that moving average, but those attempts ultimately fail, and the EMA simply acts as resistance until downside acceleration unfolds.” Based on this, he shared three potential outlooks for BTC’s performance. The best-case scenario for Bitcoin would be reclaiming this indicator and successfully ending this correction as a downside deviation, as it would suggest that BTC remains in a bull market. The second-best case scenario would be that Bitcoin sees a multi-week hesitation period below the EMA as it enters the bear market, which could include a brief overextension above this level before a clearer trend resolution to the downside. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Just Flashed A Death Cross, But It’s Not What You Think Meanwhile, the worst-case scenario would see the cryptocurrency’s price unable to retest the 50-Week EMA, even as resistance, and directly enter the downside acceleration phase. Nonetheless, the analyst noted that, historically, the third scenario doesn’t appear as likely if we have already entered a bear market. Instead, he concluded that the recurring “relief-rally scenario” into the 50-week EMA before downside continuation seems more likely. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Bitwise’s Matt Hougan said a price bottom is coming soon and will present a “generational opportunity” and a “gift for long-term investors.”
The Bitcoin price has seen a significant pullback, retracing nearly 26% from its all-time highs, fueling speculation about the potential onset of a new bear market. Compounding this uncertainty, a fresh sell signal has emerged from one of the cryptocurrency’s key indicators, reminiscent of the past when similar signals led to a staggering 67% drop in value. Bitcoin Price Could Plunge To $31,000 Market expert Ali Martinez pointed out in a recent post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) that the last time the SuperTrend indicator issued a sell signal for Bitcoin was in 2022. At that time, Bitcoin, which had reached an all-time high of $69,000, subsequently fell to around $17,000. Related Reading: Can Strategy Survive A 90% Bitcoin Crash? Saylor Says Yes While the market landscape has changed significantly since then—with the introduction of exchange-traded funds (ETFs), new digital asset treasuries (DATs), and increased institutional support spurred by pro-crypto regulations—the current situation mirrors some of those past concerns. As it stands, the Bitcoin price is trading just above $94,500. If the historical trend of a 67% retracement were to repeat in the next months, the price could potentially fall to around $31,185, which could be the potential bottom of the new bear market. Adding to the conversation, another analyst known as Mr. Wall Street suggested that the recent Bitcoin price peak might be at $126,000. He forecasted that the next major downward move could see BTC hit levels between $74,000 and $82,000, ultimately reaching a target between $54,000 and $60,000 by the fourth quarter of 2026. This perspective contributes to the notion that Bitcoin is likely confirmed in a bear market, which could result in a year-long decline marked by price fluctuations similar to those seen in previous bear cycles. A New Death Cross Emerges Further complicating the outlook, analyst Doctor Profit pointed out a significant technical signal: the Bitcoin price experienced a death cross for the first time since April 2025. This event, marked by the 50-day moving average (MA) crossing below the 200-day moving average, historically led to rallies of 25% to 60% in the following three months. However, Doctor Profit emphasized a crucial difference this time around: the death cross occurred while Bitcoin was trading 6% below the 50-day exponential moving average (EMA50). In the previous instances, such crosses happened while Bitcoin was positioned above the EMA50, suggesting a different market sentiment this time. Related Reading: Here’s Why The Ethereum Price Is Crashing Again, Can It Breach $3,000? The current bearish sentiment is intensified by negative trends in ETF sales and whale net volume, adding significant pressure to the Bitcoin price. With the average entry price for Bitcoin buyers over the past six months set at approximately $94,600, falling back toward or below this level could trigger fresh selling pressure. Historically, short-term traders tend to exit at breakeven or even at a slight loss, raising concerns about further declines. Doctor Profit concluded his analysis stating: This combination of ETF selling, whale selling, and a large cluster of sellers sitting at breakeven levels is a dangerous setup and adds to the bearish case.

On-chain data shows the Bitcoin Stablecoin Supply Ratio has declined into the buy territory. Here’s what followed this signal in the past. Bitcoin SSR RSI Is Giving A Buy Signal In a new post on X, CryptoQuant community analyst Maartunn has talked about the latest trend in the Stablecoin Supply Ratio (SSR) for Bitcoin. The SSR is an indicator that measures how the market cap of BTC compares against the total supply of the stablecoins. Stablecoins refer to cryptocurrencies that are pegged to a fiat currency. Investors generally park their capital in the form of these assets when they want to avoid the volatility associated with BTC and other assets. Related Reading: Bitcoin Social Dominance Hits 4-Month High: What It Means Such holders also usually eventually invest back into Bitcoin and company, however, exchanging away their stablecoins in favor of them once they feel the time is right. Because of this reason, the stablecoin supply is often looked at as a sort of “available buy supply” in the cryptocurrency sector. When the value of SSR is high, it means BTC’s value is high compared to the stablecoin supply. Such a trend suggests the market stablecoin buying power is low, which could be a bearish sign. On the other hand, the indicator being low implies the sector may have a high amount of dry powder available relative to the Bitcoin market cap, which can naturally be bullish. Now, here is the chart for the BTC SSR shared by the analyst that shows the trend in its Relative Strength Index (RSI) over the last couple of years: As is visible in the above graph, the Bitcoin SSR RSI has witnessed a decline recently as the BTC spot price has crashed. This suggests that there may be a high amount of stablecoin buying power available in the market now. The indicator’s drop has been so steep that it has entered into a zone that Maartunn has flagged as pertaining to a buy signal. From the chart, it’s apparent that past instances of this signal have often coincided with some sort of bottom or led into a price surge. In a lot of the instances, however, the signal has only resulted in a temporary reversal. It now remains to be seen whether any bullish shift will follow the latest signal, and if one does, whether it will be lasting.

Ethereum is trading around key demand levels as fear and uncertainty grip the broader crypto market. The second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization has struggled to regain bullish momentum, currently hovering near $3,150 after weeks of consistent selling pressure. However, new on-chain data from CryptoQuant reveals that Ethereum might be nearing a crucial accumulation zone — one historically associated with long-term holder activity and market bottoms. Related Reading: Massive Bitcoin Bid Walls Spotted On Binance: Bulls Step In With 2,800 BTC Cluster According to the report, the ETH price is now just 8% away from touching the Accumulation Addresses Realized Price level at $2,895. This metric represents the average cost basis of long-term investors who have been steadily stacking ETH during previous market cycles. A move toward this level could signal the final stages of the ongoing correction, potentially attracting renewed interest from strategic buyers looking for value entries. Historically, similar declines toward the realized price of accumulation addresses have acted as strong support zones, leading to price stabilization and subsequent recoveries. While short-term sentiment remains fearful, the proximity to this key level suggests that Ethereum could soon reach a point where long-term investors begin accumulating once again — setting the stage for a potential market rebound. Long-Term Holders Stay Unshaken According to CryptoQuant analyst Burak Kesmeci, the $2,895 level represents the average cost basis of long-term Ethereum accumulators — investors who have been “patiently stacking” through multiple market cycles. This group tends to buy during periods of maximum fear, forming a stable foundation for future rallies. Historically, Ethereum has only dipped below this key level once, during the April 2025 Trump tax-tariff crisis, when global markets faced extreme uncertainty. The Global Economic Policy Uncertainty Index (GEPUCURRENT) surged to 629 points, surpassing even the COVID-19 pandemic peak by 50%. Despite the widespread panic, long-term holders continued to accumulate aggressively rather than sell. In fact, 2025 saw around 17 million ETH flow into accumulation addresses, raising the total balance held by these wallets from 10 million to over 27 million ETH. This trend highlights the conviction of Ethereum’s strongest investors, who have repeatedly viewed fear-driven sell-offs as opportunities. If Ethereum were to decline another 8%, it would reach this cost basis once again. Historically, this level has acted as one of the strongest long-term accumulation zones, signaling value and resilience. As Kesmeci notes, even if ETH briefly dips below $2,900, it’s unlikely to remain there for long. Related Reading: Ethereum Whale Expands Position By 36,437 ETH – Bringing Total To $1.34B Ethereum Holds Above Key Support as Market Tests Long-Term Confidence Ethereum’s weekly chart shows that the asset is holding above a key structural support zone near $3,000, after several weeks of downside pressure. The price briefly dipped below this level last week but recovered quickly, forming a potential short-term base around the 200-week moving average — a historically significant line that has supported major bottoms in past cycles. Currently trading around $3,190, ETH is attempting to maintain stability within this critical range. The 50-week moving average remains slightly above at $3,500, serving as immediate resistance. A break above that level would be an early signal of renewed bullish momentum, while losing $3,000 could trigger a deeper correction toward $2,800–$2,900, which aligns closely with the Accumulation Realized Price highlighted by CryptoQuant analysts. Related Reading: Bitcoin Leverage Cooldown Signals Market Reset: OI Drops 21% As Excess Risk Is Flushed Out The recent decline mirrors past phases of market reset, such as the April 2025 correction, where Ethereum similarly tested long-term supports before rebounding strongly. The confluence of technical and on-chain data suggests that current levels are being closely watched by long-term holders and institutional accumulators.
