After Bitcoin Fell Below $104,000, Retail Investors' Sentiment Returns to "Liberation Day" Level

On June 21st, against the backdrop of ongoing macroeconomic pressures and a notable decline in retail investor sentiment, Bitcoin is still seeking direction. CoinDesk Research's technical analysis model indicates that in the past 24 hours, the price of Bitcoin has witnessed intense volatility. It dropped below $103,400 at one point and then slightly recovered. This trend reflects an uneasy market environment influenced by geopolitical tensions and uncertain monetary policies.

Conversely, if Bitcoin drops below $10.2k, the cumulative long liquidation strength of mainstream CEXs will reach $800 million.

The bars on the liquidation chart actually signify the significance of each liquidation cluster in relation to adjacent liquidation clusters, that is, the strength. Consequently, the liquidation chart reveals to what extent the asset's price reaching a particular position will be impacted. A higher "liquidation bar" indicates that the price reaching that level will trigger a more intense response due to a liquidity cascade.

Bitcoin Volatility Drops to 1.62%

On June 20th, the volatility of Bitcoin has dropped to 1.62%, maintaining a slight fluctuation for a week. BlockBeats Note: Generally, high Bitcoin volatility is often related to speculative trading and the FOMO sentiment among retail investors. A decrease in volatility may suggest a reduction in short-term speculators, causing the market to enter a consolidation phase or a "cooling-off period." Furthermore, the volatility of the Bitcoin price is frequently tied to macroeconomic events such as inflation expectations, interest rate changes, or geopolitical risks. When these external factors stabilize, the volatility of Bitcoin may decrease accordingly.

On June 20th: Within 24 hours, the central banks of Switzerland, Sweden, and Norway simultaneously reduced interest rates by 25 basis points each, announcing the world's re-entry into an easing cycle. While most economists had previously expected these central banks to remain unchanged, facing the slowdown in inflation and the pressure of currency appreciation, the three countries chose to stimulate their economies early, causing market turbulence. Although the Bank of England and the Federal Reserve of the United States kept interest rates unchanged, the pound weakened, U.S. bond yields declined, and funds began to flow back into the cryptocurrency market. BTC continued to trade sideways around $105K. The market is now closely watching to see if the early July expiration of the U.S. tariff truce will introduce a new variable. Bitunix analysts suggest: This "small-scale easing wave" may be a precursor to a global monetary policy shift in the second half of the year. Especially against

On June 20th, as per The Block, Kraken has initiated a Bitcoin "Staking" service and integrated the DeFi protocol Babylon.

The next headline news, macroeconomic shift, or tail event could reignite the spark of past volatility.

If Bitcoin surpasses $107,000, the mainstream CEX aggregated short liquidation pressure will reach 500 million

On June 20th, according to Coinglass data, in the event that Bitcoin breaks through $107,000, the cumulative short liquidation intensity on mainstream CEXs will reach 500 million. Conversely, if Bitcoin drops below $105,000, the cumulative long liquidation intensity on mainstream CEXs will reach 831 million. BlockBeats Notes: The liquidation chart does not display the precise number of contracts to be liquidated or the exact value of the contracts being liquidated. The bars on the liquidation chart actually represent the significance of each liquidation cluster in relation to adjacent liquidation clusters, that is, the intensity. Therefore, the liquidation chart shows to what extent the target price will be influenced when it reaches a certain level. A higher "liquidation bar" indicates that the price will have a more intense response due to a liquidity avalanche when it reaches that level.

Matrixport: Bitcoin ETF Attracts Over $45 Billion, But Market Faces Hidden Selling Pressure

On June 20th: Matrixport put forward its latest weekly report, indicating that Bitcoin ETFs have attracted a cumulative inflow of more than $45 billion. There is stable corporate allocation demand and continuous institutional interest. Nevertheless, although there is a strong inflow into ETFs, the market still faces the risk of hidden selling pressure. Especially when the Bitcoin price is close to the average holding cost of retail investors in the past year (around $45,000), potential selling pressure may emerge, posing a certain resistance to further price increases. The report also pointed out that since some funds that flowed into Bitcoin ETFs in the second quarter of 2024 are still in a loss position, the short-term market structure may undergo adjustments or extensions. The key lies in whether Bitcoin can break through the current range and trigger a new round of fund inflows.

Data: This week Bitcoin's "Weak Hands" Loss Price Transferred 15,000 BTC, While Hodlers are Absorbing Sell Pressure

On June 20th, as per Cointelegraph's report, CryptoQuant's on-chain data indicates that this week, short-term Bitcoin holders transferred 15,000 BTC at a loss, thereby increasing the probability of the price falling below $100,000. On Monday, 959 BTC were transferred to exchanges with losses, and this figure surged to 16,700 BTC by Wednesday. During this period, the price of BTC dropped from $106,500 to $103,500. This behavior reveals that short-term holders are inclined to engage in panic selling when the price is declining, often resulting in losses. When these "paper hands" exit the market, their Bitcoin holdings typically transfer to long-term holders, which helps stabilize the market and form a more solid price floor. According to the STH-LTH Net Position Change chart, in the past month, short-term holders have been actively selling, and most of the sales have been absorbed by long-term holders. This trend may have played a crucial role in maintaining the BTC price above $100,000
