Bitcoin: Retail Buys as Whales Sell

Bitcoin market sentiment shifted when retail cohorts began buying after an hour of broad selling, while Purple whales holding $100k-$1M orders continue to dictate BTC price action according to FireCharts binned CVD.

Price at $78,808.19 sits just below EMA50 resistance at $78,951.76 with MACD locked in a death cross at -163.61, keeping the structure bearish toward the lower Bollinger Band support at $78,014.93 before any test of EMA200 at $74,025.09; RSI at 46.82 offers no immediate reversal signal. This flow directly shapes BTC price prediction models and raises crypto market crash probabilities if larger cohorts resume selling. Bitcoin market sentiment remains whale-driven despite the retail uptick.
