Two Major Support Levels to Watch for Bitcoin Price This Week
Bitcoin's recovery faces resistance at $106,265, with potential corrections toward $103,700 or $95,600 due to selling pressure. A breakout above $106,265 could trigger a rally toward $108,000.
Bitcoin (BTC) recently ended a two-week downtrend, which saw its price fall to $100,200 before bouncing back. Despite the recovery, Bitcoin still faces selling pressure from long-term holders (LTHs), which could make it vulnerable to a potential price correction.
The crypto market remains volatile, and Bitcoin’s next price movement will depend on these factors.
Bitcoin Selling Brings Concern
Bitcoin’s cost basis quantiles highlight key support levels that could be crucial in the near term. The 0.95 SSD (Spendable Supply Distribution) indicates that 95% of the circulating Bitcoin supply was bought below $103,700.
This suggests that only 5% of Bitcoin was acquired above this level, making $103,700 a strong support zone.
Additionally, another critical support level sits at $95,600, where the 0.85 SSD coincides. This level represents a point at which 85% of circulating Bitcoin has a lower acquisition price, making it another potential stronghold for Bitcoin’s price.
If Bitcoin faces more selling pressure, these levels could serve as strong barriers to a deeper drop.

Despite the selling pressure from LTHs, Bitcoin’s macro momentum suggests a positive outlook in the long term.
Historical monthly return data for Bitcoin shows that June has typically been a positive month for the asset, with a median rise of 2.58%. This indicates that while Bitcoin may face short-term corrections due to selling, the broader market trend could support price recovery.
The historical trend suggests that any correction Bitcoin faces due to LTH selling will likely be temporary. With Bitcoin’s price showing potential for growth in the long term, the market could soon shift toward bullish sentiment, especially if broader market conditions improve.

BTC Price Has Support
Bitcoin’s price has recently risen 4.7% over the past three days, trading at $106,263. However, the cryptocurrency remains just below the resistance level of $106,265.
Given the current market sentiment and key support levels, the factors at play suggest that Bitcoin might experience a decline in the short term.
If Bitcoin fails to maintain the $106,265 level and faces further selling pressure, it could fall through the $105,000 support and move toward $103,700.
This level, as identified in the quantiles cost basis, could provide significant support. In a more bearish scenario, Bitcoin could even slide to the next support at $102,734.

On the other hand, if the broader market turns bullish and counters the impact of LTH selling, Bitcoin could push past the $106,265 resistance level.
A successful breach of this level could lead Bitcoin toward $108,000 or even higher, invalidating the current bearish thesis and signaling a potential price rally.

Once frenzied buying, now the "ammunition warehouse" shrinks by 51 trillion KRW! Korean retail investors can no longer afford to buy
In four months, Korean retail investors' "ammunition stockpile" has dropped by 36.5%, returning to levels seen at the beginning of the year. Although retail investors have collectively made net purchases exceeding 75 trillion won, they are still absorbing the sell-off, but the influx of new funds has dried up, and the replenishment rate lags far behind the consumption rate. Combined with the KOSPI plunging nearly 20% this month, continued net selling by foreign investors, and concerns over AI-related credit risks, the Korean stock market may find it difficult to see a sustained rebound in the short term without support from private investors' funds.
