Image
A significant chunk of short-term Bitcoin holders are currently underwater. In fact, the current proportion of holders with losses is at its highest level since FTX collapsed. A recent Analysis report by Glassnode brought to light, “Since selling off below $26k in recent weeks, more than 97.5% of STH supply is now held at a loss.” Even though this statistic is far from appealing, there is a silver lining to it. During bear markets, whenever more than 97.5% of the short-term holders are at a loss, the chance of seller exhaustion increases rapidly.
