Analyst: Bitcoin bear market may be nearing its end, short-term holders' cost has dropped to $69,000.

2026.07.19 10:52:30

CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost wrote that Bitcoin’s bear market has lasted roughly 9 months, affecting both short-term and long-term holders. The cost basis of short-term holders has fallen below that of long-term holders, a trend confirmed over three days, triggering a "bear market nearing its end" signal. This metric excludes BTC held for more than seven years when calculating long-term holders’ cost basis, to more accurately reflect economically active long-term positions. Darkfost stressed that this signal does not mean the bear market will end immediately or that the market bottom is already locked in; instead, it signals the market may be entering the final phase of the bear market, during which a dollar-cost averaging (DCA) strategy is likely more rational. He noted that if short-term holders’ cost basis later rises back above long-term holders’ cost basis, this will mark a confirmation of the start of a bull market, serving as a reference to end DCA. Currently, short-term holders’ cost basis has dropped from $112,500 to $69,000.

Ansem: Crypto Market Remains in the Early Stage of a Bull Run, Retail Investors Are Entering with More Capital

Crypto KOL Ansem posted an article stating that the crypto market is still in the early stages of a bull run, and the key to generating returns at this stage is to identify assets with asymmetric upside while tolerating short-term volatility. Over the past two years, rotating between meme coins and new trading pairs has been the dominant strategy, with lower valuation caps leading traders to favor short-term holdings; however, in a bull market, high-quality assets offer greater upside potential, so extending holding periods after careful selection may prove more advantageous. Ansem believes retail investors are entering the crypto market with more capital. The growth of mobile users on Pump.fun and Fomo, as well as Robinhood Chain’s ongoing efforts to convert stock traders to on-chain activities, all indicate that market liquidity may increase in the future. New users pay relatively less attention to market capitalization changes, so tokens that gain widespread traction may receive stronger capital inflows. He also noted that the trend toward short-form video has led fewer and fewer investors to read project whitepapers or research token differences, which in turn creates opportunities for those willing to build a complete investment thesis and exercise patience. However, traders still need to set criteria for when they are wrong, review the reasons for missing out on high-growth assets, and define conditions for re-entering the market after selling too early.

Making money from FOMO? The peak APR for the JINQIAN liquidity pool (LP) on Uniswap hit 83,832%.

Tonight, the "short squeeze on underlying stocks" narrative surrounding JINQIAN/FAMI on Robinhood’s blockchain has been denied by the parties involved, putting an end to the on-chain hype. However, a review of the entire incident shows that the biggest gains were not only made by top on-chain traders; smart money also reaped substantial profits by setting up JINQIAN trading pair liquidity provider (LP) pools on Uniswap. According to data from Uniswap’s official page, during JINQIAN’s first rally from a $7 million market cap to $60 million, the peak APR of its main trading pair JINQIAN/ETH hit 83,832%, and has since dropped to 79,708%. As of press time, the JINQIAN/USDG trading pair still has a 6% transaction fee, with the pool’s annualized APR reaching as high as 126,440%. This means that if traders bought JINQIAN tokens during the rally, then established liquidity pools at higher price levels, timely collected LP fees, and sold off part of their JINQIAN holdings, their risk-reward ratio would be far higher than that of simply holding JINQIAN tokens. However, current market sentiment has become overly FOMO, and on-chain scams are on the rise. Even setting up LP pools for individual popular meme coins cannot fully avoid risks from token price fluctuations, so users should exercise caution with their investments.
