Özet

The cryptocurrency market is experiencing extreme fear, with Bitcoin (BTC) dropping to $75,700 and Ethereum (ETH) to $2,220, causing $435 million in liquidations. A survey of 1,189 investors revealed that 45.6% believe BTC’s 2026 bottom will be between $75,000–$85,000, while 30.2% see it at $60,000–$75,000. Nearly half of respondents (47.2%) plan to DCA and hold long-term. Key on-chain metrics from Glassnode indicate potential support levels: the short-term holder cost basis is $95,400, the active investor average is $87,300, the realized price is $80,500, and the network-wide average cost basis is $55,900. The ahr999 indicator, which recently fell below 0.45 for the first time since October 2023, suggests a buying opportunity below $76,000. Analyst Willy Woo’s CVDD model points to a hard bottom near $45,000, while the cost basis of large holder “Strategy” ($76,040) is seen as a critical support level. Overall, data suggests a potential bottom formation between $45,000–$76,000.

Original Title: 5 Major Data Indicators Revealed: Is There a BTC Buying Signal Below $75,000?


Wintermute stated last week that $85,000 is a key level for BTC and that a direction would be chosen soon. Unfortunately, the direction was not upward but sharply downward.

On February 2, BTC fell to $75,700, and ETH dropped to $2,220. Numerous altcoins continued to decline. Regarding liquidation data, Coinglass data shows that $435 million was liquidated in the past 12 hours, with long positions accounting for $324 million.

The market fear index is 15, indicating that market sentiment has once again fallen into extreme panic.

After the market turned bearish, where is BTC's bottom range? Five major data indicators reveal the answer.

Data Survey: 30% of Users Believe BTC's Bottom Range Is Between $60,000 and $75,000

On January 30, Foresight News conducted an investor market confidence survey. At the time of the survey, BTC was priced at $84,000. It has since fallen significantly over the following days, so the survey results are for reference only.

The poll (with 1,189 participants) showed that most respondents (45.6%) believe BTC's bottom price in 2026 will be between $75,000 and $85,000. Another 30.2% of respondents believe the bottom price will be between $60,000 and $75,000.

44% of respondents believe 2026 will be a bear market, while 35.3% disagree and do not think it will be a bear market. Another 20.6% of respondents are uncertain.

Nearly half of the respondents (47.2%) choose to dollar-cost average and hold Bitcoin long-term. Another 25% of respondents choose to liquidate their positions and switch to stablecoin investments or wait and see. 17.5% of respondents are looking for altcoins for value investing.

Currently, among the voting respondents, 31% say they have mostly cleared their positions but are still looking for opportunities to buy the dip. 29% say they haven't sold their holdings from the last cycle but are not adding positions for now and are looking for opportunities to reduce them. 21% say they haven't sold their holdings from the last cycle and have already started adding positions.

Glassnode Shows BTC's On-Chain Cost Basis Is $55,900

As Bitcoin falls below $78,000, Glassnode has updated the key on-chain price distribution as follows: The STH (Short-Term Holder) cost basis, reflecting the average holding price of new buyers/traders who entered the market in recent months, is $95,400.

The average investment of active investors, representing the average holding cost of traders currently "on the field," is $87,300; the Realized Price, focusing on the cost basis of actual traders in the secondary market, is $80,500. The Coin Price, representing the average cost basis of all coins across the entire network, is $55,900.

This means that when the BTC price is below $80,500, your purchase price is lower than the cost price of other recent traders. If BTC falls below $55,900, it means your purchase price is already below the average cost of the entire network.

In the 2022 cycle, the BTC price once fell below the entire network's average cost basis. In this cycle, influenced by macro liquidity, spot ETFs, and other factors, whether BTC will fall below $55,900 remains unknown.

Ahr999 Indicator Shows Accumulation Signal

The ahr999 indicator was invented years ago by Weibo user ahr999 to evaluate BTC's short-term returns and price deviations. The calculation formula is (Current Price / 200-day Dollar-Cost Average) × (Current Price / Exponential Growth Valuation), where the exponential growth valuation is based on a fitting curve of historical prices and block height, representing the long-term "fair value." Historical experience shows: ahr999 1.2 is the high-price zone.

On February 1, 2026, ahr999 fell below 0.45 for the first time, the first occurrence in 839 days since October 16, 2023, marking a potential market bottom. The current break below the threshold suggests the BTC price is significantly below long-term growth expectations, similar to the end of the 2023 bear market. This signal strongly suggests buying the dip, but it needs to be confirmed with trading volume to avoid false breakouts. Buying strategy: If ahr999 stabilizes below 0.45, consider buying in batches below $76,000, and reduce positions when it rebounds above 1.2.

Willy Woo Indicator Shows BTC's Hard Bottom Is $45,000

The indicator developed by renowned analyst Willy Woo is the CVDD model. "When Bitcoin transfers from an old investor who bought at $1 to a new investor who buys at $100,000, the new investor will value these Bitcoins with a higher floor price, which helps raise the perceived floor price of the entire Bitcoin supply globally. Active custodian rotation (i.e., frequent transfers of Bitcoin between different investors or custodians) may also indicate that investors value these Bitcoins highly."

When many whales transfer BTC to new Bitcoin wallet addresses, the market's bottom price is rising.

The BTC price has never fallen to the red line (CVDD model). Currently, the CVDD indicator shows a hard bottom of approximately $45,000. In past cycles, BTC once fell below the yellow line in the chart, which currently ranges from $53,000 to $56,000.

Strategy's Bitcoin Cost Price Is $76,040

As of February 2, the well-known Bitcoin accumulation大户 (large holder) Strategy holds a total value of approximately $54.2 billion, with 712,647 BTC. Their average holding cost is about $76,040.

Historically, the area below this average cost has been the bottom range. Placeholder partner Chris previously stated that the $74,000 to $76,000 range is a price line worth paying close attention to.

AI is Killing 'Poor People's Entertainment'

AI Is Eliminating 'Entertainment for the Poor' This article discusses the rising cost of video gaming, arguing that AI is making digital entertainment increasingly expensive. It follows the example of a frugal gamer who, accustomed to waiting for discounts and buying second-hand games, now faces a new reality. Video game consoles like the PS5 Pro and Switch 2 are increasing in price post-launch, breaking the traditional pattern of降价 over time. Game prices are also rising, with major titles like GTA 6 launching at $80. Furthermore, the industry is moving towards eliminating physical media, exemplified by Sony's plan to stop PS disc production by 2028. This shift blocks the二手 market, a key cost-saving avenue for players. Even Valve's anticipated affordable Steam Machine launched with a high price and disappointing specs. Manufacturers cite inflation, supply chain issues, and rising development costs, but a core driver is the AI boom. AI data centers now consume semiconductor and memory resources once prioritized for consumer electronics like game consoles. This competition from a more profitable sector drives up hardware costs. Additionally, developing modern AAA games with massive teams over many years is astronomically expensive, pushing publishers towards digital-only distribution and subscription models to secure recurring revenue. The article suggests this trend extends beyond gaming. Video streaming, music platforms, cloud storage, and AI tools are increasingly locked behind complex subscription tiers. While AI promises future benefits, it is currently making digital entertainment and services more costly. The era of progressively cheaper, accessible online entertainment is ending, forcing consumers to pay more upfront for future technological promises.

The Demise of the Trillion-HKD ETF Myth: SK Hynix Plummets, Hong Kong Switches from 'Double Leverage' to 'Flexible Leverage', South Korea Restricts Leveraged ETF Investments

South Korea's AI-driven bull market has taken a sharp downturn, severely impacting SK Hynix's stock and prompting regulatory tightening in both Hong Kong and South Korea on single-stock leveraged products. The CSOP SK Hynix Daily Leveraged (2x) ETF, once the world's largest single-stock leveraged ETF with over HKD 130 billion in assets, saw its value plummet by over 80% as SK Hynix shares fell nearly 46% from their June peak, erasing more than HKD 100 billion. In response, Hong Kong's Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) revised its regulatory framework. Starting August 3rd, fixed 2x leverage for single-stock leveraged and inverse products will shift to a dynamic "flexible leverage" mechanism, where daily leverage can vary up to a maximum of 2x. This aims to balance market development with investor protection but has sparked debate about changes to the products' core features and potential reduced appeal for risk-seeking investors. Simultaneously, South Korean authorities announced plans to further restrict single-stock leveraged ETFs following two consecutive days of market circuit breakers. Proposed measures include capping individual investors' allocations to such products at 20% of their total financial investment assets, increasing trading costs, and enhancing suitability requirements. The Finance Minister publicly apologized, acknowledging insufficient initial risk assessment. Analysts note that while the long-term fundamentals for South Korean semiconductor firms like SK Hynix remain solid, short-term market volatility is heightened due to concentrated leveraged bets and shifting global risk sentiment. The regulatory moves in both markets signal a clear shift from encouraging innovation towards prioritizing risk control, reminding investors of the amplified risks inherent in leveraged products.

After the Privatization of the Internet, Silicon Valley Begins Privatizing Human Civilization

"The Privatization of Human Civilization" The article critiques how AI companies like Anthropic are systematically acquiring and digitizing millions of books—sometimes by destroying physical copies—to build proprietary training datasets for models like Claude. While a lawsuit resulted in a settlement, the author argues the deeper issue transcends copyright: it is about the privatization and centralized control of human knowledge and civilization. This process coincides with a powerful Silicon Valley ideology, exemplified by Marc Andreessen's "Techno-Optimist Manifesto" and movements like e/acc (Effective Accelerationism). This worldview frames technological growth and speed as inherently moral, portraying caution, regulation, and public dissent as obstacles to progress. It often envisions intelligence itself, rather than human well-being, as the ultimate goal, potentially sidelining present human concerns. Figures like Peter Thiel and Curtis Yarvin express skepticism towards democratic processes as too slow, suggesting more centralized, founder-led governance is efficient. This logic extends to AI, where a small team within a company defines the model's "constitution"—its rules, values, and definitions of truth and safety—effectively governing how millions understand the world. Thus, the scanned books symbolize a new form of control. Knowledge isn't erased but is ingested into private, opaque systems. The original, decentralized, and contestable nature of books and public knowledge is replaced by a curated, company-controlled output. The public's access to their own cultural heritage becomes mediated by corporate AI, which remembers civilization only in the form its creators dictate. This is not book-burning but a subtler, potentially more complete privatization of human memory and understanding.
