Axel Adler Jr, a technical expert and author, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/AxelAdlerJr\/status\/1884222200686784590\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">reported<\/a> the worrying shift in investors\u2019 sentiment in an X post, sparking uncertainty about BTC\u2019s price sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>On-chain data shows that the balance of wallets containing 10-100 BTC has been steadily decreasing for nearly 2 years. This continued sell-off by this cohort might be viewed as profit-taking or strategic repositioning as BTC builds momentum for an upswing.<\/p>\n<p>In June 2023, the balance of these investors reached a peak of 3.2 million BTC. However, the volume has decreased significantly by over 600,000 BTC, bringing the balance to 2.6 million BTC. Meanwhile, the average volume for this group of <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-whales-and-sharks-accumulation-persists\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">whale investors<\/a> is 3.15 million BTC.<\/p>\n<p>The expert highlighted that investors have been cashing out sums ranging from $1 million to $10 million since the downward trend. As a result, a considerable number of real millionaires have been generated in the market over the last 6 months.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-381448 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Axel-Adler-Jr-4.jpg?resize=640%2C360\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Axel-Adler-Jr-4.jpg?w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Axel-Adler-Jr-4.jpg?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Axel-Adler-Jr-4.jpg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Axel-Adler-Jr-4.jpg?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Axel-Adler-Jr-4.jpg?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Axel-Adler-Jr-4.jpg?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Axel-Adler-Jr-4.jpg?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/p>\n<p>Historically, large investors\u2019 behavior tends to influence BTC\u2019s price trajectory and stability. Even though Bitcoin is <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-continues-recovery-us-unemployment-rates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">recovering slightly<\/a>, a prolonged sell-off by these investors may hinder growing momentum, causing a pullback toward key support levels.<\/p>\n<p>During the recent decline caused by a larger market drop, the overall supply of BTC in loss has increased sharply. Axel Adler <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/AxelAdlerJr\/status\/1884152206208671805\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">outlined<\/a> that Bitcoin\u2019s decline to the $98,000 price level led to a substantial increase in the total BTC supply in loss to about 2 million.<\/p>\n<p>This surge coincides with investor concerns about the open-source release of DeepSeek\u2019s solution and inflated Artificial Intelligence (AI) firm valuations. With 2 million BTC now trading below their purchase cost, the development may signal heightened selling risks for the asset.<\/p>\n<p>However, overall supply in loss has now fallen to 738,000 <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bullish-alert-more-new-bitcoin-whales-are-entering-the-market-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">BTC<\/a> as prices slowly move upward, which is in line with the quarterly average for this indicator. The drop shows that the market has stabilized and the number has returned to normal.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC\u2019s Price Facing Bearish Pressures<\/h2>\n<p>Examining <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-price-still-has-room-for-upward-growth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">BTC\u2019s recent price action<\/a>, the flagship asset appears to be eyeing a consolidation phase as it hovers between $103,000 and $100,000. This movement is fueled by growing bearish pressure and investors\u2019 waning sentiment, raising the possibility for an extended consolidation phase.<\/p>\n<p>With negative pressure mounting, Bitcoin is trading slightly above $102,500, indicating a nearly 3% daily decrease. BTC\u2019s drop has sparked selling activity among investors, cited by a decline in its <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-volume-crashes-46-investors-losing-interest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">trading volume <\/a>by over 44% in the past day.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/xTRu4Hy9\/\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"2283\" height=\"1351\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a period of heightened volatility due to a broader market crash, Bitcoin appears to be regaining an upside trajectory as prices continue to hold above the $102,000 mark.
