After Capitulation, Bitcoin Market Losses Ease — Yet Selling At A Loss Continues

Bitcoin's price has recovered above $70,000, showing early signs of stabilization after a market-wide capitulation. However, on-chain data reveals that realized losses still dominate, with weekly net losses at -$264 million, indicating investors continue to sell at a loss. Although this marks an improvement from the extreme $2 billion weekly losses seen earlier, the market remains fragile. Short-term holder supply has doubled since January 2023, increasing volatility. Additionally, negative funding rates suggest Bitcoin may be at a short-term bottom, yet the overall trend remains uncertain as the market struggles to return to sustained profitability.

Ethena: Is 4.47M ENA accumulation quietly sparking a recovery?

OKX Ventures received 4.47M ENA tokens ($453K) from Ethena Labs, increasing its holdings to 10.84M ENA ($1.12M), signaling institutional accumulation. Spot trading shows strong market buy aggression, indicating active accumulation rather than speculation. ENA's price is stabilizing within a demand zone of $0.093–$0.133 after months of decline, with key resistance at $0.255. The MACD indicator is flattening, suggesting reduced selling pressure. Liquidation clusters near $0.100–$0.104 may influence short-term volatility. Overall, ENA is in a base-building phase, with sustained buyer support potentially leading to recovery, though the broader downtrend remains until stronger upward momentum appears.

Bitcoin Correction Intensifies With A Sharp Surge In Coins Held At A Loss

Bitcoin's price fell sharply over the weekend, dropping below $70,000 and intensifying the ongoing market correction. On-chain data indicates that 43% of Bitcoin's supply is now held at a loss, a level historically associated with market downturns. Analysts note that this shift suggests increased stress among short-term holders and could signal further declines, potentially pushing the loss-held supply toward 45%, a level seen in previous bear markets. Meanwhile, Bitcoin exchange reserves continue to decline, indicating reduced selling pressure and a preference for long-term holding. Although spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced significant outflows after the recent all-time high, these are now stabilizing. A return to positive ETF inflows, combined with falling exchange reserves, could tighten supply and support prices. BTC was trading around $67,547 at the time of reporting.

BTC Market Pulse: Week 11

Bitcoin retreated from the $74k level, showing tentative signs of stabilization. Momentum improved modestly with RSI recovering, though overall price action remains subdued. Spot trading volume was lower, indicating limited participation. Futures open interest rose, while funding rates turned negative, reflecting mixed derivatives sentiment. Options markets became less defensive as volatility spreads narrowed and skew declined. ETF inflows accelerated, though the average holder is now underwater. On-chain metrics were mixed: transfer volume improved, but active addresses and fees remained soft. Supply in profit and NUPL saw modest recovery. Overall, conditions are stabilizing with slight improvements in momentum, ETF demand, and profitability. However, capital flows remain weak, speculative activity is low, and broader conviction has not yet fully returned.

Bitcoin holds $70K, but BTC bull market isn’t back: Here’s why

Bitcoin's [BTC] rebound toward $73,000 is primarily due to a reduction in aggressive selling pressure and major distribution, rather than a return of broad market demand. The Bull Score remains low, indicating weak network participation and a lack of investor confidence. Recent price stability is attributed to seller exhaustion, declining long-term holder selling, and a positive flip in the Coinbase Premium Index, suggesting U.S. buyers are absorbing supply. However, institutional and derivatives activity remains subdued. Current rebounds are largely driven by short liquidations and whale accumulation, not a structurally supported bullish reversal, implying these are tactical rallies within a still-fragile bearish cycle.

Bitcoin Reclaims $70K as ETF Investors Still Face Losses

Bitcoin has reclaimed the $70,000 level, showing a recovery after weeks of volatile trading influenced by macro uncertainty and geopolitical tensions. Despite this rebound, data from CryptoQuant indicates that the average spot Bitcoin ETF investor is still at a loss, with an estimated cost basis of around $79,000. During the recent market correction, over $8.9 billion flowed out of the ETF ecosystem, with significant outflows from major funds like BlackRock's IBIT, which saw over 42,000 BTC withdrawn. These redemptions contributed to selling pressure, though the situation appears to be stabilizing as net drawdowns have slightly improved from -$8.9 billion to -$7.8 billion.

Bitcoin Stabilizes At $68K as Fund Flow Ratios Signal An Institutional Standstill

Bitcoin is testing the $69,000 resistance level after rebounding from $64,000, though the broader market shows limited conviction. Analyst Darkfost notes that February is set to record the lowest spot trading volumes of 2024, indicating a defensive market posture rather than expansion. Major exchanges like Binance, Gate.io, and Bybit have seen significant volume declines since October, reflecting reduced participation and systemic caution. Shrinking spot volumes suggest weaker conviction and delayed trend formation, as sustained recoveries typically require expanding spot demand. The market's direction hinges on whether spot activity stabilizes or continues to contract amid ongoing liquidity constraints.

Will 61% reduction in loss intensity save Bitcoin? THESE 2 metrics say…

Bitcoin's recent market stress shows signs of moderation, with a 61% reduction in the intensity of realized losses over 17 days, as measured by the 7D-EMA metric. This indicates reduced panic and a gradual cooling of selling pressure. However, the market remains fragile. While short-term holder selling has eased, large whale cohorts still hold significant unrealized losses—approximately $26 billion—creating ongoing risk. Additionally, derivatives markets show stress with negative funding rates and increased liquidations. Overall, Bitcoin’s stability hinges on the conviction of these underwater holders rather than a full return to profit-driven accumulation.

All about Ethereum’s derivatives reset as exchange reserves hit multi-year lows

Ethereum's derivatives market is undergoing aggressive deleveraging, with open interest collapsing by 66% to around $11 billion. This contraction, led by major exchanges like Binance and Bybit, was driven by cascading liquidations as ETH's price fell from over $4,000 to near $1,900. The liquidation heatmap revealed intense long squeezes around the $1,900 zone, with $189 million in positions liquidated in 24 hours. However, this flush of excess leverage has reduced systemic risk and may lead to more stable, defensive positioning. Simultaneously, exchange reserves dropped to a multi-year low of 16.1 million ETH, indicating strong accumulation by long-term holders and thinning sell-side supply. This combination of deleveraging and supply absorption is helping to stabilize prices in the $1,900–$2,000 range, though muted ETF demand continues to temper upside momentum.

Here’s what happened in crypto today – BTC, Harvard, crypto ETPs & more

Bitcoin's price showed signs of stabilization after briefly retesting $70K over the weekend, though it later dropped to around $68K, fueling market uncertainty. Analysts from Bitfinex suggested the movement reflects a stabilization phase rather than a leverage-driven squeeze, with derivatives positioning and funding rates normalizing. They expect BTC to trade between $55K and $78.2K before a new bull run. Crypto ETPs recorded $173 million in outflows last week, marking the fourth consecutive week of withdrawals. Bitcoin and Ethereum led the outflows with $133 million and $85 million respectively, while XRP and Solana saw institutional inflows of $33.4 million and $31 million. Harvard Management reduced its Bitcoin exposure in BlackRock’s IBIT by 21% in Q4 2025 but still held a record-high public investment in BTC. It also debuted in Ethereum with an $86.8 million investment in ETHA. Meanwhile, the CFTC is challenging state-level restrictions on prediction markets, arguing that these contracts fall under federal jurisdiction as risk management tools rather than gambling. The regulatory clash is ongoing, with a lawsuit involving Crypto.com expected to bring more clarity.
