Bitcoin saw a sudden weekend liquidity cascade that took BTC price to near $75,000 for the first time since its April 2025 low.
Bitcoin (BTC) fell over 7% during weekend trading as a fresh price collapse liquidated $800 million.
Key points:
-
Bitcoin drops to near its 2025 low as mass liquidations accelerate.
-
BTC price action fails to hold $80,000 and its key true market mean level.
-
Strategy’s 700,000 BTC corporate treasury falls into the red versus its aggregate cost basis.
BTC price collapses below $76,000
Data from TradingView showed BTC price losses taking BTC/USD below $80,000 for the first time since April 2025.
Already licking their wounds from a brutal week, Bitcoin traders faced stronger downside as low-liquidity weekend conditions exacerbated volatility.
At the time of writing, BTC/USD traded below $78,000, with the April 2025 bottom near $74,500 now in focus.
“Local Low at $80.5k was annihilated,” Keith Alan, cofounder of trading resource Material Indicators, reacted on X.
Analyst On-Chain College noted that Bitcoin had now lost its true market mean — the aggregate cost basis for the current active BTC supply.
“Bitcoin is now BELOW the True Market Mean ($80.7K) for the first time since October 2023, when the price was at $29K,” he noted.
“Put simply, this is not good for Bitcoin’s short to medium term price action.”
Alan supplied various downside levels to note, including the top of Bitcoin’s last bull market from November 2021 at $69,000.
Earlier, Cointelegraph reported on $76,000 as a popular target as Bitcoin failed to catch a bid despite stocks and precious metals beating all-time highs.
