Bitcoin short-term holders have been selling at a loss, maintaining market pressure, according to analyst Axel's report. Over the past eight days, the 'Bitcoin Short-Term Holder SOPR' indicator was below 1.0 for seven days, indicating systematic selling below cost. The indicator briefly rose above 1.0 on March 4 when Bitcoin's price hit $70,800, but quickly reverted to loss-selling patterns.
The short-term holder supply metric decreased by 140,000 BTC over two weeks, from 6.06 million to 5.92 million BTC. With an average cost of $89,028 and a current market price of $67,175, these holders face a 24% unrealized loss. Axel suggests this supply reduction could indicate capitulation or a transition to long-term holding. A sustained SOPR above 1.0, coupled with rising prices, is needed to confirm a market shift.
