The whale supply A major Bitcoin correction A bullish sign?According to on-chain data, Bitcoin's largest holders are currently in the middle of a massive accumulation campaign. According to blockchain analytics firm Santiment, the amount of Bitcoin held by "whale" addresses (wallets with over 1,000 BTC) has rebounded sharply to 7.17 million BTC.This is the highest level since March 14, which indicates that there is a rather high level of conviction among BTC holders.

Sophisticated investors tend to capitalize on discount pricing after the capitulation of speculative buyers. A major Bitcoin correction Recently, Bitcoin experienced a major correction. It plunged to support levels right at the $60,000 horizontal baseline.Retail panic peaked and forced spot prices down toward the low $60,000s, the whales chose this exact window of deep illiquidity to heavily ramp up their spot exposure.Whale balances conversely ticked sharply upward to form the right-hand peak during the consolidation phase. A bullish sign?Large-scale whale accumulation during multi-week price drawdowns could be seen as a highly bullish structural divergence.Whales are notoriously patient accumulators. The fact that they have reclaimed their highest supply share in three months indicates that large entities view the low-$60,000 range as a deep value zone.If macroeconomic conditions stabilize and spot ETFs finally recover, this whale-induced supply shock could be the launchpad for Bitcoin’s next macro leg upward.

Bitcoin price forecast: why the $61,775 level matters now

Bitcoin is trying to repair after its recent sharp pullback, but I am not treating this as a clean bullish reversal yet. The short-term bounce is constructive, especially after the recovery from the $59,100 area, but the key level I cannot ignore is $61,775. If Bitcoin loses that zone, the bullish repair case weakens quickly. Key takeaways for crypto traders and investors Current read: Bitcoin has bounced over the past week, but the larger trend remains damaged. Key level: $61,775 is the major line in the sand because it is the point of control from the recent consolidation range. Bullish defense zone: Bulls ideally need to protect the $63,200 to $63,850 area. Market context: Bitcoin is up over one week, but still deeply negative over longer timeframes. Relative strength: Bitcoin is not leading crypto this week, with several altcoins outperforming BTC. My Bitcoin technical analysis video What does the Bitcoin chart show today? On my Bitcoin spot chart, the important recent low came near $59,100, from Friday, June 5. That area created a possible double-bottom structure, which is why many traders are now asking whether the dip has already completed. I also have a regression channel on the chart, using two standard deviations on each side. Once Bitcoin broke below that structure, it activated what looked like a bear flag. Since then, price has tried to repair higher and has retraced back toward the 20 EMA, a widely followed moving average. That is the current debate. Is Bitcoin building a real reversal, or is this only a normal bounce after a breakdown? For me, the answer depends on how price behaves around the nearby value zone Bitcoin has bounced, but the bigger picture is still carrying damage Bitcoin has managed to put in a decent one-week bounce, up roughly 5%. That is not nothing. After the recent drop, even a modest green patch can quickly bring back the “was that the dip?” crowd. But zooming out, the chart still has some bruises. Over the past month, Bitcoin is still down about 16%. Over 6 months and year-to-date, it is down roughly 27%. Over one year, the damage is closer to 39%. So yes, the one-week bounce matters, but I would not confuse it with a full bullish regime shift yet. This is more like Bitcoin has stood up after getting knocked down. Good. Encouraging. But it still needs to prove that it can walk properly before we start talking about a real trend reversal. Bitcoin is not exactly the star of the crypto show this week Another thing I noticed is that Bitcoin is not leading the crypto board this week. Some of the stronger movers are coming from the altcoin side. XLM and UNI are the eye-catchers, with very strong one-week gains. ZEC and AAVE also showed solid relative strength, while SOL and ETH were modestly positive. Bitcoin, meanwhile, was slightly negative on the relative performance snapshot. That does not automatically make Bitcoin bearish, but it does tell me that the short-term excitement is not centered on BTC leadership right now. And on the weaker side, names like TAO, ICP, ADA, DOGE, and BNB were lagging. So the crypto market is not moving as one clean block. There is rotation, selectivity, and some clear winners and losers. For Bitcoin bulls, stronger BTC leadership would help. If Bitcoin starts outperforming while holding above the key value areas, the bullish repair case becomes more convincing. But for now, I still see this as a repair attempt, not a confirmed takeover by buyers. Bitcoin bullish and bearish scenarios This is the practical trading map I am using now. Could Bitcoin still return toward $100,000? If Bitcoin completes a real bullish reversal from this area, I do think the upside can become meaningful. A move back toward the higher zones, potentially even closer to $100,000, becomes more realistic only if buyers first prove themselves at the current decision area. But that is not confirmed yet. The market still needs to show that this bounce is more than a retracement into the 20 EMA and value resistance. The next few sessions are important because Bitcoin is sitting near a technical junction, not a random price area. What should traders watch next? The macro picture is rapidly shifting, forcing active traders to quickly re-evaluate their exposure as monetary policy uncertainty injects heavy volatility across key asset classes. We are seeing a distinct shift in market microstructure after , which triggered a broad sell-off across equities as market participants priced in tighter liquidity conditions and higher-for-longer interest rates. This aggressive defensive rotation was further exacerbated as Federal Reserve Chair Kevin , a strategic pivot that has raised significantly more questions than answers regarding forward guidance and systemic liquidity. For short-term order flow, this means trailing VWAP levels and monitoring key institutional support zones will be absolutely critical to confirm whether this downside momentum has room to run or if a relief bounce is building. But focused on the bitcoin chart as guidance, the main thing I am watching is whether Bitcoin can defend the $63,200 to $63,850 zone and avoid a deeper rotation back toward $61,775. If Bitcoin holds and pushes higher, the repair remains alive. If Bitcoin loses $61,775, I would become much more cautious on the bullish case because that would suggest buyers are not strong enough to defend the main fair-value area from the recent consolidation. This is still a decision zone. It is not the place to assume certainty. The chart is giving traders clear levels, and the next reaction around those levels should tell us a lot about whether Bitcoin is repairing or preparing for another leg lower. Educational note: This analysis is a scenario map, not financial advice. Bitcoin can move quickly, and traders should manage risk according to their own plan, timeframe, and account size.
