One was an $84.08 billion trading volume burst during the tariff-driven dip in April that marked the \u201cbottom signal,\u201d with the second being a much larger $90.90 billion spike in recent weeks that coincided with Bitcoin hitting a new all-time high above $124,000.<\/p>\n<p>According to the analytics firm, the first flagged a sharp selloff that provided bargain entry points for investors, while the second was a top signal, coming in sync with intense profit-taking as BTC set its record high.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThe two largest volume spikes from Bitcoin signaled the optimal time to buy (as prices were falling) and sell (as prices peaked to a new ATH),\u201d noted Santiment.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Its assessment comes a couple of days after Glassnode shared an update showing that \u201cFirst Buyers\u201d had <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/heres-how-bitcoin-investor-cohorts-are-navigating-this-consolidation-phase\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">added<\/a> 50,000 BTC to their holdings in five days, while so-called \u201cConviction Buyers\u201d also accumulated, albeit more cautiously.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, \u201cLoss Sellers\u201d had increased by nearly 38%, reflecting capitulation from weaker hands, with profit-takers expanding their take to the highest level seen this year. Indeed, on August 20, the platform reported that long-term holders had <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/long-term-btc-eth-xrp-sol-investors-lock-in-2-8b-as-market-stalls\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">booked<\/a> $2.8 billion in profits across Bitcoin, Ethereum (ETH), XRP, and Solana (SOL) as the market cooled.<\/p>\n<p>BTC led the rush, realizing its largest profit-taking event since December 2024, when investors pocketed $1.5 billion on July 18. That wave of exits helped push the OG crypto under $113,000 earlier this week, dragging other majors lower and erasing more than $70 billion in total market value overnight.<\/p>\n<p>Adding to the bearish mood, Santiment\u2019s metrics also showed that crowd sentiment on social platforms had swung negative, <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/is-this-the-moment-to-buy-bitcoin-as-btc-sentiment-sinks-to-fear\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">registering<\/a> the most pessimism since June.<\/p>\n<h2>Price Action<\/h2>\n<p>Meanwhile, at the market, Bitcoin was trading at $113,705 at the time of this writing. The price reflects an almost 7% dip over the past week, a relatively poor performance compared to the broader crypto market, which shed 3.5% in the same period.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the asset slipped 3.1% in the last 30 days, although it remains up nearly 91% year-over-year.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/santiment-bitcoins-2025-volume-peaks-have-been-the-key-buy-sell-signals\/\">Santiment: Bitcoin\u2019s 2025 Volume Peaks Have Been the Key Buy\/Sell Signals<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin\u2019s two biggest trading volume spikes of 2025 have turned out to be near-perfect signals for traders, according to fresh data from behavioral analytics platform Santiment.
