The downward trend was steeper before February, and while it slowed after February, it still maintains a certain slope, potentially constituting the largest supply side in the current market.

Analyst: Short-Term Holder Supply Share Continues to Contract, May Reflect Bitcoin Is in Opportunity Zone

CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost stated that the share of supply held by Short-Term Holders (STH) in the Bitcoin market is declining significantly, with the current distribution as follows: less than 1 day accounts for 1.2%, 1 day to 1 week accounts for 2%, 1 week to 1 month accounts for 5.6%, 1 month to 3 months accounts for 6.7%, and 3 months to 6 months accounts for 8.1%.

Glassnode: Bitcoin Enters Late-Stage Bear Market Compression Phase, No Genuine Demand Signal Yet

Odaily News, Glassnode reports that Bitcoin is currently trading between a median realized price of approximately $63,000 and a short-term holder cost basis of approximately $68,700. Spot trading volumes have dropped to their lowest levels since 2019, with the market in an extremely quiet state of compression. Core inflation fell to 2.5% in July and stock markets hit new highs, yet Bitcoin has shown almost no reaction or has even weakened, indicating a clear absence of demand. Selling pressure is subsiding, with profitable supply approaching levels seen at previous bear market bottoms. The seller exhaustion indicator has hit cycle lows, and the adjusted SOPR has been rejected near the breakeven line nine times.Meanwhile, buyers continue to stay on the sidelines, with negligible net inflows into ETFs and Bitcoin still flowing into exchanges. Derivatives leverage has already been heavily skewed toward longs ahead of time, open interest remains relatively high compared to trading volume, and order book bid depth is thinning. Glassnode identifies key levels to watch at approximately $68,700 to the upside and $58,500 to the downside. Only a decisive break above the former, accompanied by a recovery in trading volumes and ETF inflows, would confirm market improvement. If the latter is lost, an accelerated decline is likely given thin buying support and crowded long positioning. Glassnode states that Bitcoin is currently in the late-stage bear market compression phase, and no genuine demand signal has yet emerged.

$1 billion Bitcoin premium income ETF yields 27%, Goldman Sachs to Hold BTCI in Neos Trades

Odaily News: Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas posted on X platform, stating that Goldman Sachs will hold BTCI in Neos trades. BTCI is a $1 billion Bitcoin premium income ETF with a 27% yield, capturing most but not all of Bitcoin's upside.

Listed Mining Companies Sell Off 28,000 BTC Year-to-Date, Becoming Overlooked $1.78 Billion Source of Selling Pressure in Bitcoin Market

According to CoinDesk, data from Blockware Intelligence shows that listed Bitcoin miners held a total of 127,000 BTC at the beginning of the year, which has now decreased to 99,000. Cumulative sell-offs within the year amount to approximately 28,000 BTC, valued at about $1.78 billion at current prices. Analysis points out that although this sell-off volume is smaller than the net outflows of over $4.4 billion from U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs, against the backdrop of a market downturn and weak buying pressure, the impact of consistent, steady marginal selling pressure on prices is often underestimated. BTC has cumulatively declined 27% since the beginning of 2026, underperforming major assets including the S&P 500. Furthermore, impacted by narrowing mining profits (the current average production cost per BTC is approximately $74,300), an increasing number of miners are pivoting to AI computing power businesses. Meanwhile, network-wide mining difficulty has dropped by about 18% from its November peak, and mining revenue for remaining miners has correspondingly increased by about 18%, as the industry competitive landscape is being reshaped.
