Bitcoin Faces Bearish Signals: Market Indicators Warn of Potential Sharp Corrections Ahead
  • Currently, Bitcoin's price hovers around $81,000, just below a crucial support level, with analysts warning of a potential drop to $63,000 if it fails to hold this support.

  • The decrease in BTC inflow to American exchanges, which has fallen below the 90-day moving average, further underscores the weakening demand for Bitcoin.

  • The Bitcoin Bull-Bear Market Cycle Indicator has reached its most bearish level in this cycle, signaling potential downturns ahead.

  • Historical trends suggest that when both the MVRV Ratio and the Bull-Bear Market Cycle Indicator hit current levels, Bitcoin often faces sharp corrections or enters a bear market.

  • In 2025, U.S.-based spot ETFs have shifted to become net sellers of Bitcoin, a stark contrast to their previous purchasing behavior, which adds further downward pressure on prices.

  • Demand for Bitcoin is contracting significantly, with major whales reducing their accumulation pace, reflecting buyer hesitation and a notable decline in demand.

  • In just one week, Bitcoin demand decreased by 103,000 BTC, marking the fastest contraction since July 2024, indicating weakened market support.

  • The broader crypto market has seen a 6% drop, driven by investor anxiety linked to President Trump's trade policies, resulting in sell-offs across risk assets.

  • While corrections during bull markets are not unusual, current valuation metrics suggest that Bitcoin may be experiencing deeper corrections than typically expected.

  • CryptoQuant analysts indicate that Bitcoin's valuation metrics suggest it is at a critical juncture, potentially signaling the onset of a bear market.

  • The annual accumulation rate for large investors has dropped significantly, from 368,000 BTC in January to 268,000 BTC currently, reflecting a shift in investment behavior.

  • Investors are increasingly questioning whether the current bearish indicators are merely temporary or indicative of deeper structural vulnerabilities within the Bitcoin market.
