Analysis: Bitcoin selling pressure has dropped to a cyclical low, and on-chain models indicate that the market has entered an accumulation phase

On-chain analysis models show that the current selling pressure on the Bitcoin network has dropped to a cyclical low, indicating that the market is in a clear accumulation phase. The Sell-side Risk Ratio last triggered a "distribution signal" in December 2024, when the Bitcoin price was around $107,000, and this signal has not appeared since. Data shows that the current level of selling pressure has fallen to about one-sixth of the cyclical average, with related indicators even reflecting levels seen during the 2022-2023 bear market (when BTC prices were around $16,000 to $20,000).The model divides this cycle into two phases: the "strong distribution phase" from November to December 2024, with prices in the range of $64,000 to $107,000; and the current "accumulation phase" that has re-entered. The Sell-side Risk Ratio is used to measure the profit-taking activity of market participants relative to the overall network cost basis. When the indicator exceeds the adaptive upper threshold, it triggers a distribution signal, indicating that sellers dominate the market; when the indicator falls below the lower threshold, it triggers an accumulation signal, meaning selling pressure is extremely low. Data shows that the distribution signal in this cycle lasted a total of 37 days, covering the major range of BTC rising from $64,000 to $107,000.Since the signal closed on December 17, 2024, the market has not seen another distribution signal for about 449 consecutive days. Meanwhile, the 180-day rolling average of the Sell-side Risk Ratio has decreased from 3210 to 1913 over the past 60 days, a drop of 1297 points, and continues to decline at a rate of about 20 points per day. Historically, the range of 1500 to 2000 typically corresponds to selling pressure levels during 2019 (BTC around $3,000 to $6,000) and the mid-point of the 2022-2023 bear market (BTC around $16,000 to $20,000), but the current BTC price remains in the range of about $67,000 to $72,000, showing a clear structural divergence.Analysis indicates that this means early low-price holders have completed large-scale profit-taking in the $64,000 to $107,000 range, while those who did not sell in that range are currently choosing to hold. The model suggests that a new distribution signal may only be triggered when the Bitcoin price stabilizes above $100,000 to $110,000, accompanied by large-scale profit-taking. Overall, on-chain indicators show that the distribution phase of this cycle has ended, and the market has re-entered an accumulation state. The current overall judgment of the model on the market is "neutral to accumulation," but without new price catalysts, the market may face a prolonged period of consolidation.
