Bitcoin needs to reclaim and maintain a price of $88,880 to confirm a market bottom, according to a CryptoQuant analyst. This level represents the break-even point for many holders who bought Bitcoin in the past year and are currently at a loss. The analyst emphasizes that merely touching this price is insufficient; Bitcoin must close above it and sustain that level to validate any bottom calls. The analysis highlights that three groups of holders are currently underwater, with realized price bands indicating their average cost basis. The most recent cohort, who bought Bitcoin three to six months ago, has a realized price of $88,880. Meanwhile, those who purchased 12 to 18 months ago have a cost basis of $93,400, and the largest group, from six to 12 months ago, bought at $111,800. As Bitcoin approaches these levels, many holders are expected to sell to break even, adding sell pressure to the market. Despite Bitcoin's recent recovery from a low of $60,000 in February, the analyst warns that the market structure remains cautious until the $88,880 level is reclaimed and held. At the time of the analysis, Bitcoin was trading near $80,250, approximately $8,000 below the critical confirmation level.
