BlockBeats report, July 17: ARK Invest released its Q2 2026 Bitcoin report, stating that Bitcoin fell approximately 14% in the second quarter, breaking below the short-term holder realized price, the 200-day moving average, and the on-chain mean, with technical indicators remaining bearish. However, the percentage of unprofitable supply rose to approximately 54%, and the supply held by long-term holders increased to a record high of about 14.85 million BTC, which ARK views as a potential signal of selling exhaustion.
The report also noted that Bitcoin has not yet retraced to the on-chain cost range of approximately $49,000 to $53,000, indicating that downside risks have not been fully released; U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a net outflow of approximately 71,000 BTC in Q2, and Strategy’s STRC preferred shares fell as low as $74.57.
