Analysts Warn of Potential Bitcoin Correction Due to Significant Unrealized Profit Levels

According to on-chain analyst Axel Adler Jr. from CryptoQuant, approximately 94% of Bitcoin’s current supply is in the profit zone. He noted that a large portion of coins was acquired around the $55,000 mark, increasing the likelihood of investors taking profits.

“A similar situation with significant profit volumes previously signaled substantial market corrections,” Adler observed.

Checkmate, another expert, pointed out that over the past few months, short-term investors have been actively purchasing Bitcoin during local dips, which could also indicate potential market shifts.

Historically, when unrealized profit levels reached similar highs, it often led to sell-offs. For instance, in September 2021, Bitcoin lost 8.7% of its value, dropping from $65,800 to $60,000.

Resistance Level Near $69,000

On October 21, Bitcoin hit $69,000 before correcting to $67,000. Japanese trader Jusko Trader described this correction as a “natural pause” that could precede the next growth phase.

Analysts from Greeks.live highlighted a significant increase in funding rates on Bitfinex, where the figure reached 30% annually. They view this as a bullish signal, indicating that large players are actively building positions.

Additionally, options traders have previously placed bets on Bitcoin surpassing $80,000.
