Bitcoin Price Drops 50% From 2025 Peak, On-Chain Data Shows Quiet Accumulation

Bitcoin has shed over half its value since its October 2025 peak, drifting to roughly $63,000 at press time. Presently, it has largely held a tight range between $58,000 and $63,000.

The decline stems mostly from mounting geopolitical tension that built after the peak—the U.S.-China tariff war and the unresolved West Asia conflict—which pulled capital out of Bitcoin.

Sentiment has since settled on the geopolitical front, but moves by major holders cast doubt on whether a sustainable rally is coming. Michael Saylor’s Strategy recently sold $216 million worth of Bitcoin to fund a dividend payment, sharpening that uncertainty. On-chain data offers a cleaner answer.

Despite the outflows, Bitcoin’s apparent demand on a 30-day basis points to a silent, growing accumulation of the asset.

Since June 3, buyers have scooped up roughly 200,000 Bitcoin, lifting apparent demand from -275,000 to -75,000 Bitcoin. The metric measures the gap between newly issued Bitcoin and the supply that has stayed inactive.

The rise reflects a degree of accumulation, though it stops short of confirming a bullish market.

Apparent demand still sits in negative territory on the chart. A material run looks unlikely until the metric flips positive, particularly while the upward push toward the positive end stays weak. For now, the trend warrants caution rather than a bullish read, and the market has yet to confirm otherwise.

Structurally, the king cryptocurrency shows signs that further downside from this level carries a lower probability.

Bitcoin has found a base at the lower band (green line) of the Bollinger Bands, a level that has often played a critical support role once price trades there for a stretch.

The Bollinger Bands have repeatedly flagged rebound points on the chart. Each of the last five instances, circled in red, typically carried price to the blue or upper red line—levels that currently sit at $69,928 and $82,544.

The moving average convergence divergence (MACD) indicator, on the other hand, suggests a rally may not materialize soon, with Bitcoin more likely to tick slightly lower or consolidate further within its present range.

The MACD blue line crossing the orange line—while holding a narrow gap—implies Bitcoin keeps trading in the direction it currently sits, between $58,000 and $63,000, before any surge materializes. It also suggests the odds of an extreme plunge remain slim.

The market has not entered a Bitcoin season, the euphoric stretch where the asset prints fresh local highs and potentially tests an all-time high.

The index tracking this currently reads 52, lending modest support to the view that select altcoins are drawing renewed capital flow.

Bitcoin is likely to meet lighter selling pressure as it stands, given the overall decline in supply held on exchange reserves. That availability has dropped from 2.715 million Bitcoin to roughly 2.707 million on the chart.

For now, capital movement points to settled sentiment, and Bitcoin looks set to stay calm as the gradual decline tendency holds steady.

• Bitcoin remains range-bound, with on-chain data pointing to accumulation but not a confirmed bullish reversal.
• Apparent demand is improving as buyers accumulate BTC, though the metric remains negative, warranting caution.
