Bitcoin (BTC) — Onchain News & Whale Tracking

If Bitcoin surpasses $115,000, the mainstream CEX total short liquidation volume will reach $1.642 billion.

On August 22nd, according to Coinglass data, in the event that Bitcoin breaks through $115,000, the cumulative short liquidation strength of mainstream CEXs will reach $1.642 billion. Conversely, if Bitcoin drops below $111,000, the cumulative long liquidation strength of mainstream CEXs will reach $1.232 billion. BlockBeats Notes: The liquidation chart does not display the exact number of contracts awaiting liquidation or the precise value of 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 strength. Therefore, the liquidation chart shows to what degree the asset price will be influenced when it reaches a particular level. A higher "liquidation bar" indicates that when the price reaches that level, it will trigger a more intense reaction due to a liquidity cascade.

Analysis: Bitcoin May Experience a Deeper Pullback if It Falls Below Short-Term Holder Cost of $106,000

On August 21st, CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. put forward that Bitcoin is continuously withdrawing from its all-time high. The one-year MVRV Z-Score has declined to nearly neutral, currently being slightly below zero. This indicates that the unrealized profits on the network are somewhat compressed compared to the one-year average level, with a greater amount of supply at the breakeven point or in a loss-making state. The key support level of Bitcoin is at the short-term holder realized price of $106,000. If the price falls below $106,000, short-term holders will be in an overall loss, and the market will be at the risk of a more significant pullback. The recovery signal would be when the Z-Score continues to rise above zero and the price regains $118,000.

glassnode: Bitcoin Inflow Shows Exhaustion, Crypto Four-Year Cycle May Still Hold

The open interest in major altcoin futures contracts once reached a record high of $60 billion and then pulled back by $2.5 billion.

Its hodler dominance has risen to the fourth-highest level in history, while the perpetual contract trading dominance has surged to a new high of 67%, marking the strongest structural shift to date. From a cyclical perspective, Bitcoin's price action also echoes previous patterns. In both the 2015-2018 and 2018-2022 cycles, measured from the cycle low, Bitcoin's peak price was only delayed by 2-3 months compared to our curre

Analysis: Recent Pullback Aligns with Bull Market Characteristics, Bitcoin Liquidity Concentrated Around $120,000

August 20th. Analysts have stated that the price trend of Bitcoin is increasingly resembling the outcome of intentional manipulation. BTC touched its lowest level since August 3rd due to continuous selling pressure from the United States. As the US stock market opened today, Bitcoin fell below $113,000 and failed to maintain the support level. The buying liquidity on trading platforms is being depleted, and $112,300 has now become a level worthy of attention. Well-known trader Daan Crypto Trades summarized the current Bitcoin liquidity situation, indicating that BTC has cleared a substantial amount of liquidity from both the long and short sides within the past 6 weeks. Currently, the closest large liquidity is concentrated around $120,000, but the local low point at $112,000 remains effective and often turns into a local reversal area.

A higher "liquidation bar" indicates that the price will experience a more intense reaction due to a liquidity cascade.

Bridge Capital Founder: Holds a Significant Amount of Bitcoin, Sticks to End-of-Year Bitcoin Price Target of $180,000-$200,000

But today, a greater number of attendees are institutional investors,” he said. Some large investors are selling their Bitcoin holdings, resulting in some consolidation in the market. However, he remains optimistic about Bitcoin in the medium term, citing that demand exceeds supply. Anthony himself and his SkyBridge fund hold “a significant amount of Bitcoin.” Previously, he has also stated that 70% of his

Analyst Tom Lee: Ethereum Consolidation to Continue Until Midweek, Then Will Reach New Highs, Bitcoin to Break $130,000

On August 20th, the newly appointed Chairman of BitMine, Tom Lee, whose Fundstrat Capital fund analyst released an opinion yesterday. It was stated that the recent consolidation of Ethereum is expected to continue for another 1-2 days. However, the range of $4075-$4150 will present a good risk/reward opportunity and extend into mid-week. After that, Ethereum is supposed to rise to nearly $5100 and set a slight new high. This pullback trend is similar to what is suggested by Elliott Wave Theory (which assumes that the financial market does not move randomly but follows specific and predictable wave patterns. These patterns reflect cyclical changes in investor sentiment and can be used to identify major trends and reversal points in the market), so there is no need to worry. At the same time, Bitcoin should not fall below $111,900 and will then rise to the range of $130,000-$140,000. BlockBeats previously reported that on August 19th, the newly appointed Chairman of BitMine, Tom Lee, r

Analysis: Bitcoin 30-Day Option Delta Skew Skyrockets, Indicating Market is in Extreme Fear

On August 20th, according to Deribit data, the Bitcoin 30-day option Delta skew (put-call) skyrocketed to 12%, attaining its highest level in more than four months. In a neutral situation, this indicator typically fluctuates between -6% and +6%, which reflects the balanced pricing of call (buy) and put (sell) options. When the level is above 10%, it indicates extreme market fear, but such situations seldom last. Previously, this indicator soared to 13% on April 7th, when Bitcoin fell below $74,500 for the first time in five months. Subsequently, risk-taking investors reaped a 40% return in the following month, with Bitcoin rising to $104,150 on May 8th. Cointelegraph's analysis suggests that there is no evidence indicating the end of Bitcoin's bull market. Traders' fear often exceeds rational expectations. In fact, this cryptocurrency may even benefit from potential outflows from the stock market, suggesting that the current turmoil will not counteract the market's long-term bullish

Franklin Templeton CEO: Crypto Investment Should Focus on Infrastructure Rather Than Bitcoin

On August 20th, Jenny Johnson, the CEO of Franklin Templeton with $1.6 trillion in assets under management, stated at the SALT Conference held in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, that Bitcoin is a "Fear Currency." In her opinion, Bitcoin has diverted people's attention away from the genuine potential of blockchain. She holds the view that the most promising investment direction within the crypto space is blockchain infrastructure, encompassing blockchain networks, consumer applications, and node validators. Johnson anticipates that in the future, mutual funds and ETFs will gradually operate on the blockchain. However, regulatory risk still poses the greatest obstacle to this transformation. She emphasized that for active investment managers, the transparency brought by validators could bring about a "game-changing" impact. (CoinDesk)

Therefore, the liquidation chart indicates to what extent the price of the underlying asset will be influenced when it reaches a specific level. A higher "liquidation bar" suggests that the price will undergo a more intense reaction due to a liquidity avalanche when it reaches that level.
