The 3 Bitcoin Rules That Tell When The Bear Market Is Fully Over

Crypto analyst Bee outlines three Bitcoin rules to identify the end of the bear market: it lasts at least 350 days, the bottom never forms without touching the 350-day moving average (MA 350), and the price always drops more than expected. Based on these, he argues the current bear market is not over, projecting a potential drop to around $46,000 to tag the MA 350 at $47,000 before a true bottom forms. Despite a recent rally above $82,000, Bitcoin struggles to hold $80,000 amid hot CPI data and stalled U.S.-Iran talks, with Bee expecting another downtrend. Another analyst, Colin, is more open to the cycle bottom being in than a month ago but still anticipates a retest of the $60,000-$70,000 range lows later this year. Alternatively, he notes that if the bottom isn't in, prolonged sideways trading reduces the odds of a significantly lower floor. Bitcoin is currently trading around $81,200.

Bitcoin Is Setting Up A Similar Structure To 2017 & 2021, What Happened Last Time?

Bitcoin's recent climb back above $80,000 is drawing comparisons to patterns seen in 2017 and 2021, according to analyst Merlijn The Trader. In those previous cycles, Bitcoin briefly broke below key support—a "fakeout" that stopped out traders—only to quickly recover and then rally to new all-time highs. The current structure suggests a similar scenario may be unfolding, where a sharp drop below support (potentially under $60,000) could shake out weak holders before a swift recovery. The $80,000 level is now a critical technical juncture. A sustained move above $82,000 would support the bullish case, while a break below $78,000 could signal a bearish shift. However, the analyst's overall outlook remains bullish, projecting that if Bitcoin follows the historical playbook, this setup could eventually lead to a parabolic move toward a new peak above $242,000. As of now, Bitcoin is trading around $80,790.

Coinbase Q1 Earnings Report: Nearly $4 Billion Loss, Trading Volume Halved. Can AI + RWA Turn Things Around?

Coinbase's Q1 2026 earnings report revealed a net loss of $394 million, largely driven by $482 million in unrealized losses on its crypto asset holdings. Total revenue fell 31% year-over-year to $1.41 billion. Transaction revenue declined 40% to $756 million, reflecting a market-wide slump in crypto trading volumes. Consumer trading was particularly weak, down 48%, though Coinbase's global spot market share rose to a record 8.6%. Key bright spots included institutional trading revenue, which grew 37%, and a surge in derivatives activity following the Deribit acquisition. Subscription and services revenue of $584 million was more resilient, with stablecoin revenue up 11% to $305 million. Adjusted EBITDA remained positive at $303 million. Ahead of earnings, Coinbase announced a 14% workforce reduction (~700 employees) to accelerate its transition to an "AI-native" organizational model. Strategically, the company is pursuing its "Everything Exchange" vision, expanding into derivatives and predictive markets. Its partnership with Circle on USDC remains a core revenue moat, with over 25% of the stablecoin's $80 billion supply held on its platform. The company is actively engaged in shaping stablecoin legislation like the CLARITY Act. Despite significant losses and cyclical pressures, Coinbase is positioning itself as a broader on-chain financial infrastructure provider.

Bitcoin Rallies, But Traders Still Realizing $479M In Losses Daily

Despite Bitcoin's recent rally to around $80,100, on-chain data reveals that investors are still realizing significant losses. The Bitcoin Realized Loss indicator, which measures the total loss from coins sold below their previous purchase price, has remained elevated at approximately $479 million per day. This level is about 140% above the typical baseline of $200 million seen in stable market periods. Notably, this spike in realized losses occurred even as Bitcoin's price increased, contrasting with previous loss spikes that happened during major price crashes. This pattern suggests that some investors are choosing to exit their positions at a loss during the rally, possibly due to a lack of confidence in its sustainability. Analysts suggest that for a healthier market regime to be confirmed, the daily realized loss would need to compress and sustain below the $200 million level, indicating selling exhaustion and a shift towards stronger underlying demand.

Coinbase Misses Q1 Estimates as Crypto Slump Deepens Losses

Coinbase reported a significant net loss of $394.1 million for Q1 2026, missing Wall Street revenue estimates. This marks its second consecutive quarter of losses, a reversal from a $65.6 million profit a year earlier. Revenue of $1.41 billion fell short of the projected $1.5 billion, with transaction revenue plunging 40% and subscription/service revenue declining 13.5% year-over-year. The company attributed the poor results to a challenging macroeconomic environment, citing a more than 20% drop in both total crypto market capitalization and trading volume from the previous quarter. Following the earnings release, its shares fell 4.7% after hours. Amid a stock price decline of over 14.5% this year, Coinbase is exploring new business lines like prediction markets and has implemented cost-cutting measures, including laying off 700 workers. Despite the losses, CEO Brian Armstrong expressed optimism about the company's role in the transition to blockchain and highlighted efforts to expand trading capabilities beyond just cryptocurrency.

Coinbase Posts $394 Million Loss In Q1 2026 — And The Worst May Not Be Over

Coinbase reported a net loss of $394 million for Q1 2026, a sharp reversal from a $65.6 million profit a year ago. This missed analyst expectations as total revenue fell 30.5% to $1.41 billion, largely driven by a 23% decline in transaction revenue due to lower crypto trading volumes and prices. A significant factor was $482 million in unrealized losses on crypto holdings, primarily linked to Bitcoin's price drop. Excluding that, the adjusted net loss was $46 million. While subscription and services revenue remained strong at $584 million and adjusted EBITDA was positive, the results highlight the exchange's continued sensitivity to crypto market cycles. This follows recent workforce reductions and shows operating margin collapsing to -1.5%. The quarter underscores that despite its institutional standing, Coinbase's path to durable profitability remains tied to volatile crypto market conditions.

Stuck Polymarket: The Real Test After Riding the Traffic Boom Has Arrived

Polymarket, a leading prediction market platform, is facing significant technical challenges as its growth outpaces its current infrastructure on Polygon. Users are experiencing laggy transactions, unresponsive orders, and delayed confirmations, severely impacting the trading experience. In response, DeFi Engineering VP Josh Stevens outlined a comprehensive engineering overhaul. The plan includes reducing on-chain data delays, fixing order cancellation issues, rebuilding the central limit order book (CLOB), improving website performance, and developing a unified SDK and API. A major revelation was the ongoing "chain migration," indicating a potential move away from Polygon. The core issue is that Polymarket has evolved from a simple prediction market into a high-frequency trading platform, making Polygon's limitations—such as block space, gas fees, and block time—a ceiling for further growth. The migration is not just a simple chain switch but a fundamental rebuild of its trading system to support more complex products like perpetual contracts (Perps). This announcement has sparked competition among chains like Solana, Sui, and Algorand, all vying to host Polymarket. For Polygon, losing this key application, which contributes significantly to its gas fee revenue, would be a major setback. The real test for Polymarket is no longer attracting users but proving it can provide a stable, reliable trading environment that retains them.

Bitcoin Derivatives Buying Pressure Continues To Rise — Is $80K Inevitable?

Bitcoin's price has been experiencing significant bullish momentum, with recent gains primarily driven by strong demand in the perpetual futures market rather than spot trading. On-chain analysis reveals sustained buying pressure in Bitcoin derivatives, as indicated by the Net Taker Volume metric, which has remained positive at around $145 million since March 7. This metric, which measures the difference between long and short orders, suggests continued dominance of buyers and reflects bullish sentiment among traders. Historically, such a shift from selling to buying pressure has consistently led to upward price movements. Analysts expecting the trend to continue, potentially pushing Bitcoin toward the $80,000 mark, though that level remains a key resistance zone. Currently, BTC is around $77,508 with little change over the past day.
