More than 230,000 BTC moved on-chain in one day
On October 23, more than 230,000 BTC, worth over $21 billion, moved on-chain. This was the largest UTXO spending volume since the start of 2026.
• Most of the BTC had been dormant for 1–6 months.
• Around $4.6 billion came from coins held for 1–3 years.
• No notable signs have been observed that this BTC was transferred to exchanges for selling.
What stands out is the huge volume of BTC moved, but on-chain movement does not mean a sell-off. These transactions could be related to wallet transfers, storage restructuring, or changes in asset managem

October 25 $BTC Market Analysis
💫Market News:
Weekend prices fell below $80k, accompanied by large-scale long liquidations; crypto liquidations exceeded $800 million in 24 hours.

U.S. consumer confidence has fallen to its second-lowest level on record, and economic pressures are mounting.
But for BTC, weaker economic data does not necessarily mean prices will rise.
If cooling consumer spending brings inflation down, markets may raise expectations for Fed rate cuts, benefiting risk assets. But if inflation remains stubborn and interest rates stay high, liquidity pressures could still limit a crypto market rebound.
The key things to watch next are inflation, employment, and signals from Fed policy. What will truly affect BTC’s trajectory is not just how weak the economy

Over the weekend, the market saw a downward-wick shakeout. A rapid sell-off last night sent the price down to a wick low near 2280, marking a local low.
On the hourly chart, the rapid drop to a bottom was followed by a corrective rebound. A candle with a long lower wick formed near the low, followed by a bullish engulfing pattern, providing short-term momentum for a technical bounce.
The broader trend remains weak. This rebound i

The most unusual detail in today's market is that $FIL is down 3.15%, yet the funding rate remains positive at +0.0027%. This divergence between price and funding indicates that longs are still paying to hold their positions, while shorts have not built positions on a large scale. It looks more like longs reducing and rotating positions among themselves than trend-driven selling pressure.
Technically, MA5=0.9366 remains above MA20=0.935845, so the moving-average structure is intact. The MACD histogram at +0.002024 remains bullish, but RSI is only 41.5, indicating weak momentum. Price is near
