According to CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost, the profitable and loss-making amounts in Bitcoin (BTC) supply are approaching bear market levels. Currently, approximately 11.2 million BTC are in profitable positions, while the loss-making BTC amount has reached 8.2 million. At the lowest point of the previous bear market, profitable BTC was 9 million, and loss-making was 10.6 million. Glassnode data also confirms that the loss-making supply has reached levels not seen since the end of 2022. This situation indicates a market valuation similar to the undervaluation in previous bear conditions.

Bitcoin Loss-Making Supply Comparison

Bitrue Research Leader Andri Fauzan Adziima states that the data shows increasing market stress but is far from real capitulation levels; in 2022, loss-making supply was above 50%. BTC has declined 52% from its peak in this cycle, less than the 77-84% losses in previous bear markets. These ratios can also be examined on our BTC detailed analysis pages.

Macro Factors: Strong DXY and Weak CNY

Bitcoin (BTC) writer Timothy Peterson stated that the strong US dollar index (DXY) and weak Chinese yuan are hindering recovery, with DXY rising 5% in the last two months. These factors are increasing pressure on BTC's futures market.
