What’s Behind Bitcoin’s Drop To $81K? Glassnode Provides On-Chain Insights

Following a brief rebound to $90,000, Bitcoin experienced a sharp decline to $81,000, driven by several on-chain factors. According to Glassnode, long-term holders distributed an average of 12,000 BTC daily over the past month, creating significant selling pressure. This was compounded by net outflows from US spot Bitcoin ETFs, reducing institutional demand to absorb the sell-off. Miners also contributed by consistently sending BTC to exchanges, indicating structural weakness. Additionally, over $300 million in long positions were liquidated, amplifying downside momentum. With subdued spot demand and defensive options market sentiment, Bitcoin faces challenges below key resistance levels until significant demand returns. Currently, Bitcoin trades at $84,095, up over 1% in 24 hours.
