Bitcoin Steady at $115,000 Amid Signs of Potential Market Shifts
Bitcoin (BTC) is currently stable around the $115,000 level after being rejected from $120,000. Realized price data indicates potential volatility ahead.
Old Bitcoin Whales Stop Realizing Gains
- Old whales, holders for over a year, have ceased profit-taking.
- Newer whales, including institutional investors, hold a marginal profit.
- Current balance between old and new capital may not sustain, risking price changes.
- Old whales' realized cap has flattened since early 2025, waiting for higher prices.
- New whales' average cost basis is $105,300; selling pressure could arise if BTC drops below this level.
Minimal activity is observed among both investor groups. A breakout above $105,000 may stabilize new capital, while a drop below could lead to increased selling pressure. Current BTC price is $113,500, down 0.3% in the last 24 hours.
Concerns include rising BTC deposits to exchanges like Binance, suggesting potential selling pressure.
