According to @glassnode, XRP has lost its aggregate holder cost basis, causing panic selling among investors. The SOPR (7D EMA) fell from 1.16 in July 2025 to 0.96 currently, indicating significant realized losses. On-chain profitability has turned negative, with the current market structure resembling the prolonged consolidation phase from September 2021 to May 2022. This bearish trend highlights weakening investor confidence and potential price stabilization challenges for XRP.

According to CryptoMichNL, the recent sharp market decline may have reached its bottom, with Bitcoin (BTC) showing technical indicators similar to previous market lows. Despite prevailing bearish sentiment, CryptoMichNL suggests a gradual recovery is underway. Additionally, MNFund has increased its exposure to Ethereum (ETH), citing strong fundamentals, including increased stablecoin supply on Ethereum and legislative clarity in the crypto sector. This strategic positioning reflects optimism for the coming year.

According to @santimentfeed, Solana ETFs have experienced significant outflows of $11.9 million, marking the second-largest withdrawal in history. Over the past four months, SOL has seen a 62% decrease in its market capitalization, and traders seem to be nearing capitulation. Historically, such major outflows have often signaled a market bottom.

According to Lookonchain, trader 0x8062 executed two Ethereum (ETH) trades over the past week, both resulting in significant losses. The trader purchased 2,132 ETH at $2,294 and sold at $2,195, incurring a loss of $211,681. Additionally, they bought 2,233 ETH at $2,095 and sold at $2,023, leading to another $160,911 loss.

According to Eric Balchunas, the 10-day volatility of the $MSTZ ETF (-2x Strategy) has reached an astonishing 477%, potentially marking an all-time record for ETFs. This level surpasses the previous high set by $QBTX at 433%. The extreme volatility has acted as a magnet for traders, resulting in record trading volumes for $MSTZ last week.

According to Andre Dragosch, recent Bitcoin sell-offs have primarily impacted short-term investors who entered the market in 2025 and 2026. These 'tourist' investors collectively incurred significant losses, with net losses reaching $1.5 billion per day, aligning with levels last seen during the June 2022 lows. The data highlights the vulnerability of newer market participants during periods of heightened volatility.

According to Charles d'Haussy, the recent drawdown in the Bitcoin ETF market, notably $IBIT, mirrors early correction patterns seen during the launch of gold ETFs. Despite a 13% Bitcoin (BTC) price drop in a single session and $6 billion in outflows over three months, this phase aligns with the 'first major correction' rather than a structural breakdown. Historical parallels with gold ETFs like $GLD suggest that post-launch euphoria often leads to corrections before long-term growth, as seen in gold's 325% rally over seven years. However, Bitcoin's retail-driven market and lack of central bank intervention introduce heightened volatility and risks.

According to Lookonchain, the Infini Exploiter has recently spent 13.32 million DAI to purchase 6,316 ETH at $2,109 per ETH. Following this transaction, all 15,470 ETH, worth approximately $32.6 million, were sent to TornadoCash. The exploiter has demonstrated a pattern of strategic trading, including significant ETH acquisitions and high-value sales in the past, often utilizing TornadoCash for fund obfuscation.

According to Michaël van de Poppe (@CryptoMichNL), the recent weekly chart for Bitcoin (BTC) suggests a capitulation candle has occurred, signaling strong buying pressure even during weekends. While consolidation and potential retests of lower levels remain possible, van de Poppe emphasizes that holding above Bitcoin’s 2021 all-time high is crucial. He notes that while a quick reversal is unlikely, the sudden upward bounce suggests a bottom range between $65K and $70K, with potential tests near $85K in the coming weeks.

According to Michaël van de Poppe, Bitcoin (BTC) is approaching a significant market bottom, with strong technical and historical indicators aligning for a potential bullish breakout. He highlights that extreme bearish market conditions often lead to underestimated upside potential. Key observations include Bitcoin's inverse relationship with gold, the lowest RSI levels since market bottoms in 2018 and 2022, and key economic factors such as weakening U.S. job data and potential monetary easing. Van de Poppe emphasizes that such conditions create optimal financial opportunities for traders.

According to @CryptoCoinCoach, #1000SHIB is trading within a falling wedge pattern, characterized by converging lower highs and lows, indicating decreased downside momentum despite ongoing bearish pressure. The price is near the wedge's lower boundary, a critical reaction zone where market behavior could shift. A defense of this area may signal a potential reversal towards the upper wedge resistance, whereas a breakdown would extend the downtrend. Traders should monitor for a breakout to confirm the next trend direction.

According to Michaël van de Poppe, the 2-week RSI for Bitcoin (BTC) compared to Gold has hit its lowest level ever, falling below 25. He highlights that such levels typically mark the end of bear markets, not their beginning, suggesting a potential bottom for BTC. Van de Poppe emphasizes the significant upside potential, estimating a possible 10x gain from current levels versus a 30-50% downside risk. This, he argues, makes it an opportune moment to accumulate BTC, especially when compared to Gold.
