Bitcoin (BTC) Price Shows Signs of Stabilization Following Correction This Month

Bitcoin has shown signs of stabilization following its earlier correction this month, which saw the asset fall to as low as $74,000.

Bitcoin (BTC) has shown signs of stabilization in recent trading, following an earlier correction that saw the asset fall to as low as $74,000 this month.

Over the past week, Bitcoin has rebounded strongly, gaining nearly 10% and trading above $84,000. This upward movement has reignited optimism among investors, although some analysts remain cautious about calling this a definitive trend reversal.

Apparent Demand Shows Recovery, But Trend Reversal Uncertain

According to recent on-chain data, the current recovery in BTC may be linked to improving demand indicators. However, it is suggested that the broader market structure still needs to confirm whether this bounce reflects a sustainable rally or is merely a temporary pause in the ongoing correction.

CryptoQuant contributor Kripto Mevsimi particularly drew attention to Bitcoin’s Apparent Demand metric, specifically the 30-day sum, which has started to rebound from negative territory.

This trend is being observed as a potential sign of changing market dynamics. However, Mevsimi warns against assuming this is the start of a new bullish cycle, drawing parallels to Bitcoin’s behavior during the latter part of the 2021 cycle.

During that period, demand remained suppressed for an extended timeframe, even as prices temporarily recovered. Only after a long consolidation phase did the market experience a genuine structural shift.

Mevsimi highlights that although momentum may be improving, more time and confirmation are necessary before a macro-level trend reversal can be confirmed.

Bitcoin Short-Term Holder Selling Pressure Declines on Binance

Another market signal worth watching comes from Binance, one of the largest crypto exchanges by trading volume. CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost reports that inflows of Bitcoin from short-term holders (STHs) to Binance have been steadily decreasing, suggesting a decline in immediate selling pressure.

The data indicates that average realized prices for STHs currently hover around $92,800, meaning many recent sellers have exited at a loss.

Darkfost notes that inflows from STHs dropped from approximately 17,000 BTC in November to around 9,000 BTC more recently. This downtrend in selling could provide some support for Bitcoin’s current price levels.

Still, the analyst emphasizes the need for continued monitoring to determine if this reduction in selling pressure persists. The easing of short-term holder activity could reduce overhead resistance and contribute to market stability, but confirmation of accumulation or a broader bullish phase remains elusive.

STH selling pressure declining on Binance

Tracking BTC inflows on Binance is a useful way to visualize potential selling pressure, as the exchange handles large trading volumes.

Short Term Holders have been under considerable stress recently, with many ending up selling at a loss.

As of late, we can observe a decrease in STH inflows to Binance.

This suggests that the immediate selling pressure might be easing a bit.

Average realized prices for STHs are currently around $92,800, indicating that many recent sellers have realized losses.

As of November, average STH inflow was around 17,000 BTC, while recently it dropped to about 9,000 BTC.

This downtrend in selling could support the current Bitcoin price action.

However, it's still too early to confirm any trend reversal on a macro level, as more time and confirmation are needed.

It will be interesting to see if this reduction in selling pressure persists and if it could be linked to the recent price bounce.

The decrease in short-term holder activity could help reduce overhead resistance and contribute to market stability. But it's important to remember that this doesn't necessarily confirm any accumulation or broader bullish phase.
