Monitoring data cited by Odaily shows Bitcoin’s short-term holders have remained underwater for an extended period, a pattern Darkfost describes as one of the clearer features seen in past bear-market cycles. The data indicates BTC has now traded below the short-term holder cost basis for more than nine consecutive months.
That cost basis is currently around $70,700, and Darkfost says it continues to act as overhead resistance. The reading points to a level that the market has struggled to reclaim on a sustained basis.
Price action in May already reflected that pressure. During that move, BTC climbed to around $82,000 to test the area, but then pulled back quickly. The data point does not add a broader forecast, but it highlights the same threshold as a key level now being watched in the market.
