Bitcoin is only $1,000 away from the last all-time high of $69,000 during the bull market, the liquidation map shows that it has already been "overleveraged."

**Bitcoin Reclaims $60k Range After 456 Days, Nears 2021 All-Time High** February 5th data from HTX shows Bitcoin has climbed back into the $60,000 price range for the first time in 456 days—only $1,000 below its November 1, 2021 bull market peak of $69,000. Over the past 24 hours, the entire crypto market saw $948 million in liquidations, with long positions accounting for $790 million of those totals. Liquidation charts indicate the recent extended downtrend has left “little left to liquidate,” as open long positions below current levels are scarce. Key liquidation levels to watch: - A drop below $65,000 would trigger $780 million in long position liquidations on mainstream centralized exchanges (CEXs). - A break above $73,000 would lead to $930 million in short position liquidations on major CEXs. Both figures are lower than the $1 billion+ liquidation volumes seen in similar price ranges historically, suggesting minimal liquidation pressure ahead—whether prices move

Bitcoin Falls Below $70,000 for First Time Since November 6, 2024

Data: Bitcoin trading below the average production cost of around $87,000, a typical sign of entering a bear market

Feb 5th: Bitcoin was hovering above $70k, while its average production cost sits around $87k—creating a ~20% gap, a classic bear market sign. In the 2019 and 2022 bear markets, BTC prices fell below production costs but eventually rebounded. Bitcoin’s total network hash rate peaked at ~1,100 EH/s in October, then dropped ~20%. It’s now rebounded to 913 EH/s and starting to stabilize. At current prices, many miners are still unprofitable. With revenue lagging operating costs, miners must keep selling BTC to cover daily operations, energy bills, and debt repayments. But long-term, this situation won’t last much longer.

Yesterday Bitcoin ETF saw a net outflow of $544.9 million, Ethereum ETF saw a net outflow of $79.4 million

Bitcoin Triggers Weekly Oversold Signal for First Time Since June 2022

On February 5, Bitcoin fell below $71,000, triggering its first weekly RSI oversold signal since June 2022—currently at 29.21, per TradingView data. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a widely used technical analysis indicator across stocks, futures, forex, and crypto. Developed by American technician J. Welles Wilder in 1978, it measures the speed and magnitude of price moves to identify overbought/oversold conditions and potential reversal or trend continuation signals. Typically, RSI below 30 signals oversold territory. An RSI oversold signal does not guarantee an absolute price bottom. In June 2022, Bitcoin dropped below $18,000 with an RSI of ~26.2. During the FTX flash crash in November 2022, Bitcoin plummeted to $15,600—but its RSI hit 31.4, marking a divergence from the June low (price hit a new low, but selling pressure eased).

If Bitcoin falls below $68,000, the mainstream CEX long liquidation volume will reach $616 million

As of February 5th, Coinglass data indicates that if Bitcoin drops below $68,000, the cumulative intensity of long liquidations across major centralized exchanges (CEX) will hit $6.16 billion. Conversely, if Bitcoin rises above $73,000, the cumulative intensity of short liquidations on major CEXs will reach $7.56 billion. BlockBeats Note: Liquidation charts do not display the exact number of contracts at risk of liquidation or the precise value of those contracts. Instead, the bars on these charts reflect how significant each liquidation cluster is compared to adjacent clusters—this is referred to as "intensity." As such, these charts illustrate how heavily a target price level will be impacted if Bitcoin reaches that threshold. A taller "liquidation bar" signals a more severe price reaction driven by a liquidity cascade.

Last Night's Market Recap: Despite Several Twists and Turns, US-EU Manage to Resume Negotiations, Bitcoin Hits New Bear Market Low, Nasdaq Falls 1.5% Dragging Down Crypto Stocks

Feb. 5 — The U.S. and Iran had previously agreed to hold talks in Istanbul on Friday, with other Middle Eastern nations participating as observers. On Tuesday, however, Iran said it wanted to shift the venue to Oman and hold bilateral talks focused solely on its nuclear program. U.S. officials initially signaled openness to the venue change but later rejected the request. Subsequently, at least nine Middle Eastern countries reached out to the White House via diplomatic channels to urge the Trump administration not to carry out its threat to withdraw from the talks. The final nuclear negotiations are set for 10 a.m. local time Friday in Muscat, Oman’s capital (2 p.m. Beijing time, Feb. 6). Bitcoin hit a new bear market low twice early Wednesday (local time) — likely amid U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiation turmoil — dropping to as low as $71,888 before falling further to $71,680 at press time. The Nasdaq Composite slid 1.5%, with AMD (AMD.O) down 17.3%, Tesla (TSLA.O) off nearly 4%, a

Bitcoin Dips Reignite "Four-Year Cycle" Fears, Analysis Suggests Unlikely Return to 80% Plunge

Feb 4: K33 analysis noted Bitcoin has pulled back ~40% from its all-time high, echoing downswing phases of past four-year cycles and sparking market fears of a bear market replay. However, the firm believes the current downturn is structurally different from 2018 and 2022, with less chance of an ~80% peak-to-trough decline. K33 research director Vetle Lunde noted that while recent market action echoes historical deep corrections, the current environment boasts stronger institutional participation, inflows into regulated products, a more accommodative rate environment, and no systemic deleveraging event like 2022’s. He added some bottoming signs have emerged—including extreme pressure readings in spot volumes and derivatives markets—but they’re not enough to confirm a clear bottom. Lunde sees ~$74k as a key support level; if it breaks, prices could drop to $69k or even the $58k area near the 200-week moving average. Overall, K33 views the current price band as a potential accumula

Analysis: Bitcoin Key Trendline Sits at $68,000, Acting as Price 'Support'

On February 4, several traders noted that Bitcoin is approaching the 200-week moving average (EMA/SMA)—a key long-term support level—around $68,000. This level could serve as a critical bottom zone in the current correction. Analysts point out this marks the first time BTC has retested this long-term trendline since late 2023. Historical data shows Bitcoin often retraces to the 200-week moving average and forms a medium-term bottom after breaking below the 100-week moving average. Some traders expect the $68,000 level to be a key area to monitor if prices decline further; should it break, the next focus range may shift to $55,000–$58,000. Despite a more than 40% pullback from its peak, market sentiment has not shown widespread capitulation. Institutional analysts note crypto market “winters” typically last around 14 months, and the current phase may be nearing its end. Meanwhile, U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs have recorded net outflows of roughly $3.2 billion since mid-January—accountin

Forbes: "$50,000 Alarm Bell" Rings as Bitcoin Plunges Triggering Cryptocurrency Market Meltdown Concern

February 4th — Bitcoin has seen a sharp pullback recently, fueling market fears of a deep downturn in crypto assets, per Forbes. Over the past week, BTC is down ~10%, briefly falling below $80k, hitting a recent low of $73k before rebounding to just over $75k. Amid a sudden shift in market sentiment, Binance co-founder CZ (Changpeng Zhao) said his confidence in Bitcoin’s 2026 “super cycle” has dropped sharply. He cited market FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt), extreme liquidations, and geopolitical risks as drivers of “very high” current volatility. A super cycle remains possible, but the odds have fallen to ~50%. Meanwhile, Michael Burry — the legendary investor and *The Big Short* inspiration — warned Bitcoin could drop further to $50k. If BTC hits that level, mining firms may face severe financial strain, even bankruptcy risk, he noted. Bitcoin weakness fears have deepened as funds rush into traditional safe havens like gold and silver. LMAX Group CEO David Mercer said the mar

On-Chain Recurrence of the "Bottom Signal"? Bitcoin Stock-to-Flow Convergence Aiming Toward $60,000

On February 4, a Coindesk report spotlighted an on-chain metric—with a track record of multiple validation cycles—that’s once again grabbing market attention. The data shows: when Bitcoin’s profitable supply and loss-making supply converge significantly, it typically signals a bear market bottom. Glassnode figures reveal roughly 11.1 million BTC are currently in profitable positions, while 8.9 million sit in unrealized loss territory. Historically, when these two metrics near equilibrium, Bitcoin has repeatedly hit its cyclical bottom. Calculated using current cost basis, further convergence of profitable and loss-making supply could push Bitcoin’s spot price near the $60k range. This signal emerged in 2015, 2019, 2020, and 2022—each time aligning closely with major market lows. Analysts note that as Bitcoin’s price oscillates around the overall market cost line, supply shifts between profitable and loss-making positions, reflecting broader investor pressure and sentiment clea

QCP Capital: U.S. Government Shutdown Crisis Averted, $75,000 Key Level for Bitcoin

On February 4, QCP Capital noted in its official channel that at the macro level, while the U.S. government shutdown cloud has lifted, a key takeaway is that fiscal standoffs could quickly return. Funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was only extended through February 13, leaving another deadline risk on the table. Additionally, after the U.S. downed an Iranian drone near the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier in the Arabian Sea, oil prices are building a modest geopolitical risk premium—though diplomatic signals continue to cap upside. Stateside, political sparring over the Fed has reignited. Trump has nominated Kevin Warsh as the next Fed Chair, reintroducing broad uncertainty. If investors begin betting on a higher chance of deeper rate cuts later this year, this could modestly support risk assets and weaken the dollar—but also redirect focus to the Fed’s balance sheet. Warsh has signaled a preference for a faster balance sheet runoff, which would directly impac

Analyst: Recent Bitcoin Selling Pressure Mostly from Hodlers, Bulls Showed 'Pyramid Buying' Behavior During Dip

February 4 On-chain analyst Murphy took to social media today, noting Bitcoin has plummeted from its $97k January 15 high to $73k by February 4—breaching the $80k psychological support quickly amid market panic. Key on-chain data: Over 610k BTC (88% of total outflows) left positions above $80k in 20 days, acting as a major selling pressure driver. But URPD on-chain data points to a critical structural shift: Selling pressure from long-term holders with profitable positions has weakened sharply (only 9.7% of the total decline), signaling these holders are highly reluctant to sell. Meanwhile, strong buying pressure has emerged in the $70k-$80k range: Net purchases of ~450k BTC, nearly double the absorption seen in the $80k-$90k range. This suggests capital is “buying the dip” with real funds to build layered support. Murphy’s take: This cycle differs from prior downturns—bulls have mounted sustained, structured defense; coin concentration is gradually shifting lower, not tr

「The Big Short」 Michael Burry: Bitcoin has plunged by 40%, and if it continues to fall, it may have 'catastrophic' consequences for the Bitcoin Treasury and tokenized metal markets

**Michael Burry Warns Bitcoin’s 40% Plunge Risks Catastrophic Spillover, Calls It Purely Speculative** On February 4, renowned American "Big Short" investor Michael Burry warned Bitcoin’s 40% drop could inflict lasting damage on companies that heavily accumulated the asset over the past year. He argued Bitcoin has proven to be a purely speculative asset—failing to function as a hedge like precious metals. Burry noted Monday that a further 10% Bitcoin decline would leave the most aggressive crypto treasury firms (like Strategy) with billions in losses and effectively locked out of capital markets. He flagged the drop could trigger "catastrophic consequences," spreading to broader markets and sparking a "collateral death spiral" in tokenized metal futures. As the warning hit, Bitcoin extended its slide Tuesday, briefly falling below $73,000—erasing all gains since Donald Trump’s 2024 reelection in November. Since hitting its all-time high in early October, the digital currency h

United States Kidnapping Case Involves Bitcoin Ransom Email Demanding Millions of Dollars

On February 4, a ransom email demanding millions of dollars in Bitcoin surfaced amid the investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie—mother of *TODAY* show co-host Savannah Guthrie. Gossip outlet TMZ claims to have received the email, which includes a Bitcoin address, a deadline, and a threat. Nancy Guthrie was reported missing the evening of January 31 from her Arizona home, and police are treating the case as a "possible kidnapping." In recent years, cryptocurrency has grown increasingly common in kidnapping and ransom cases. Globally, there were a record 72 violent wrench attacks targeting cryptocurrency holders in 2025—a 75% jump from 2024.

Bars instead reflect how important each liquidation cluster is relative to adjacent ones (i.e., "intensity"). This means the chart signals the impact of hitting a price level: higher bars mean a more intense price reaction due to a liquidity cascade.
