Bitcoin’s price has steadied over the last month, suggesting the worst of the market turbulence may be behind us.
Bitcoin’s price has steadied after recent volatility, suggesting the worst of the market turbulence may be behind investors.
Following a sharp weekend selloff that pushed bitcoin from around $75,000 to lows near $67,000, the digital asset has rebounded, supported by signs of constructive U.S.–Iran talks and easing selling pressure from ETFs and long-term holders.
Despite closing the week down roughly 6%, the cryptocurrency shows resilience in its current range.
Research from K33 highlights that bitcoin has been trading sideways between $60,000 and $75,000 in recent weeks, a pattern often linked to market bottoms.
K33 Head of Research Vetle Lunde noted that this consolidation reflects stabilization in both exchange-traded product flows and long-term holder behavior. “With bitcoin trading below $100,000, fewer investors are inclined to exit positions, helping anchor prices,” Lunde said.
ETF flows have turned mildly positive since late February, signaling an end to the heavy distribution phase that began after October’s all-time highs.
Meanwhile, supply held for more than six months is rising again, reinforcing the market’s structural stability.
Broader financial conditions remain uncertain, with rising oil prices, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, and a hawkish Federal Reserve limiting risk appetite. Open interest in bitcoin perpetual swaps hovers near yearly lows, funding rates remain negative, and institutional participation has been muted.
Still, K33 describes the environment as constructive. Reduced selling pressure, stabilized flows, and range-bound price action suggest bitcoin may be transitioning out of a distribution phase toward a potential bottom.
For medium- and long-term investors, the current low $70,000 levels could represent an attractive entry point, even as macro uncertainty keeps upside limited in the near term.
Negotiations involving Iran, the United States, and Israel are ongoing but remain indirect and uncertain.
