Retail buy dips, institutions sell rallies as doubts grow over bitcoin bottom signal

On-chain analysis suggests bitcoin’s bear-market bottom has not yet been confirmed, with realised losses in this cycle remaining below 2022 levels. CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost said investor capitulation appears weaker than in the previous downturn, though he added the view may be subjective. Trader Ardi said retail investors have aggressively bought dips for months, while mid-sized participants and institutions have sold into rebounds. Analysts said bottom signals may gain weight only if realised losses rise and the flow pattern shifts.

Bitcoin may correct into $60,000s as spot demand weakens and long liquidation risk grows

Bitcoin slid to as low as $72,500 and strengthened short-term signals of selling pressure, as weakening spot demand coincided with excessive long positions in derivatives markets. Indicators such as the Coinbase premium index and a surge in bitcoin net inflows to Binance pointed to distribution. Derivatives market metrics, including higher funding rates and large liquidations, also turned bearish. Long-term holders still control 84.3% of supply, while spot trading activity has cooled and realized losses have fallen.
