Bitcoin (BTC) is currently in red regarding price performance<\/a>, dragging the rest of the crypto market along with it. Amid the continuous bearish price action, the latest data has revealed that Bitcoin short-term holders now face losses compared to their initial purchase prices.<\/p>\n

Onchain data expert James Check highlighted this in a recent \u043f\u043e\u0447\u0442\u0430<\/a> on X, disclosing that over 80% of Bitcoin\u2019s short-term holders, those holding their BTC for less than 155 days, have bought their tokens at prices higher than the current market rate.<\/p>\n

Underwater Investors, Implication For Bitcoin<\/h2>\n

This situation of the majority of short-term holders<\/a> being in the red (at a loss), as pointed out by Check, is quite similar to the scenario that took place in \u201c2018, 2019, and mid-2021, which signaled many investors were at risk of panicking and precipitating a bearish trend.\u201d<\/p>\n

Right now, over 80% of #Bitcoin<\/a> Short-Term Holders are underwater, meaning their coin was acquired at a price above the current spot price.<\/p>\n

\u2014 _Checkmate (@_Checkmatey_) August 19, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n

Despite the bleak outlook suggested by the high percentage of underwater short-term holders, the implications for the market are nuanced.<\/p>\n

Check highlighted that the psychological impact on holders varies greatly depending on the extent of their losses. He elaborates that a minor unrealized loss, such as 1%, has a significantly different psychological effect on an investor than a more substantial loss of 20%.<\/p>\n

Despite the high percentage of holders facing losses, the total unrealized loss across the market equates to only 4% of Bitcoin\u2019s total market capitalization. This indicates that while the sentiment<\/a> may be bearish, the financial impact might not be as severe as expected.<\/p>\n

BTC Market Performance And Outlook<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin has continued to gradually plunge towards the downsides<\/a>, breaking multiple supports. Over the past week, the asset has declined by 1.7% and further down by 2.7% in the past day.<\/p>\n

This bearish performance has brought the asset to trade as low as $57,918 earlier today before now, retracing slightly to trade at $58,339 at the time of writing. Interestingly, despite the decline, BTC\u2019s daily trading volume has seen quite the opposite performance<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to data from CoinGecko, this metric has increased from below $17 billion at the start of today to roughly $22.6 billion.<\/p>\n

Regardless, several analysts remain bullish on BTC, anticipating a rebound soon. Renowned crypto analyst Elsa on X has revealed that Bitcoin\u2019s daily MACD indicator has switched bullish. However, it appears BTC is \u201clacking\u201d the liquidity needed to make that push to the upside.<\/p>\n

$BTC<\/a> daily MACD has turned bullish<\/p>\n

But still, liquidity is lacking which is needed for a big #Bitcoin<\/a> pump! pic.twitter.com\/snUqfPdFGU<\/a><\/p>\n
