Bitcoin's [BTC] short-term holder (STH) cost basis is currently sitting at a lofty $93,460
May 05, 2025 at 03:30 pm
Bitcoin's [BTC] price action is closely watched by crypto traders, especially as it relates to key levels like the short-term holder (STH) realized price.
Currently, this cost basis is at $93,460, and it is a key inflection point for market sentiment. A dip below it could see panic buttons getting smashed.
Why? Well, historically, dips below the STH realized price have been precursors to full-blown capitulation phases, especially among newer entrants sitting on thinning margins.
This was evident in the 2022 bear market, where Bitcoin breached the STH cost basis multiple times with brutal consequences.
In May, the spot price crashed to $30k while STHs were positioned around $34k — A signal of mounting pressure.
In June, Bitcoin cascaded to $25k against a $32k cost basis. By September, it broke below $19k while STHs clung to a $27k average.
Each deviation below sparked sharp sell-offs, mass liquidations, and a feedback loop of fear. If Bitcoin slips below the current $93k-level, expect a replay of that volatility.
Bitcoin's knack for defying expectations
Open Interest (OI) is another crucial metric to watch. As Bitcoin flashes bullish signals, rising OI is seen as a green light for more liquidity and market action.
However, when Bitcoin dips, that same liquidity can become a ticking time bomb. More positions to liquidate means the risk of a liquidation avalanche, sending prices spiralling faster.
Again, looking back at the 2022 bear market — As Bitcoin crashed from $50k to $16k, the OI stayed stubbornly high at $20 billion — Signaling heavy leverage. When the support broke, a massive liquidation cascade followed.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin's OI was $64.82 billion, the same level it was when BTC flirted with $100k. This suggested that the derivatives market could be getting a bit overheated.
This was in contrast to the start of 2023's bull market, where OI dropped to $30 billion as Bitcoin slid to $17k. Back then, the lower OI allowed for a swifter recovery, eventually leading to new highs.
However, with Bitcoin's knack for surprising the market, keeping tabs on these metrics is a must.
If BTC falls below its short-term holder (STH) cost basis at $93k, brace for a possible mass exodus. In fact, what might start as a small "dip" could quickly spiral into capitulation as OI positions get liquidated in unison.
