Sathvik Vishwanath, Co-Founder & CEO, Unocoin said, “Bitcoin (BTC) is facing a pullback after last week’s all-time high of $124,500, slipping to $113,578 amid caution ahead of Jerome Powell’s Jackson Hole address. The price has dropped 7.6 per cent, triggering significant capitulation among short-term holders (STHs). Onchain data from CryptoQuant shows over 20,000 BTC held for less than 155 days were sold at a loss since Sunday. Loss-taking peaked Tuesday, with 23,520 BTC sent to exchanges, coinciding with a 3.5 per cent decline from $118,600 to $114,400, according to Glassnode. Despite this pressure, analysts suggest bears may struggle to push BTC below $100,000 given resilient technical support levels.”
