Bitcoin is down 4% for the week and may return to the $ 100,000 mark in the coming days, but data show there may not be much long-term trading below this level.
CryptoQuant reported highlighted that the Net Realized Profit/Loss (NRPL) chart, which monitors Bitcoin transaction profits and losses, indicates moderate profit-taking
The market is not overheated, as evidenced by the relatively restrained recent profit-taking; BTC activity is still noteworthy but significantly lower than the spikes observed during the cycle peaks in March and November 2024. These periods marked strong sell-offs that indicated market tops.
This suggests that the upward trajectory of Bitcoin remains very much in play.
It was somewhat anticipated that Bitcoin would eventually retrace, and that is exactly what happened in the last few days. The main cryptocurrency broke its January 2025 all-time high and set a new one at nearly $ 112,000 on Pizza Day (May 22), characterized by difficulties due to global economic uncertainty.
However, the asset hasn’t been able to sustain its recent run since then. BTC initially fell several thousand dollars due to the most recent tariffs suggested by US President Trump, this time only against the EU. Trump later lifted the tariffs for over a month, but this had little effect on Bitcoin
.
If Bitcoin drops below $100,000, the $ 000 level might likely serve as a floor, attracting buyers and limiting losses. Due to strong holder conviction and market demand, Bitcoin has not historically remained below the short-term realized price for an extended period during bullish cycles.
