Bitcoin\u2019s price dipped below the $100,000 mark during Monday\u2019s intraday trading session. While the leading coin\u2019s price has since rebounded to trade at $102,691 at press time, its short-term holders (STHs) still feel the sting of the temporary price drop.<\/strong><\/p>\n On-chain data reveals that this cohort of BTC holders continues to sell at a loss.\u00a0<\/p>\n According to data from CryptoQuant, the Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) for Bitcoin\u2019s STHs has trailed downward over the past week. As the coin\u2019s price broke below the $100,000 mark<\/a> yesterday, the metric\u2019s value fell under 1. As of this writing, it is at 0.99.<\/p>\n The STH-SOPR gauges the profitability of the short-term holders of a particular crypto asset. It generally offers insights into whether investors who have held a specific asset for three to six months are in a profitable or unprofitable position.\u00a0<\/p>\n If the STH-SOPR is above 1, it indicates that short-term holders are, on average, selling their coins at a profit. Conversely, if the STH-SOPR is below 1, it suggests that these holders are selling at a loss.<\/p>\n At 0.99 as of this writing, BTC\u2019s STH-SOPR suggests that investors who have held their coins for less than six months are, on average, selling at a loss below their acquisition basis.\u00a0<\/p>\n A<\/a>lthough BTC\u2019s price<\/a> has rebounded from Monday\u2019s low, a negative bias continues to trail the king coin. This is evidenced by its negative weighted sentiment, currently at -0.48.\u00a0<\/p>\n An asset\u2019s weighted sentiment measures its overall positive or negative bias. It tracks the volume of social media mentions and the sentiment expressed in those mentions.\u00a0<\/p>\n As with BTC, a negative value is a bearish signal. It indicates that investors have become increasingly skeptical about the token\u2019s near-term outlook, causing them to trade less.<\/p>\n BTC\u2019s price will shed its recent gains if this negative bias strengthens and trading momentum wanes. It could drop below $100,000 to trade at $99,378 in that case.<\/p>\n Conversely, if the uptrend is sustained and market sentiment improves, the coin could attempt to reclaim its all-time high of $109,356.<\/a><\/p>\n Disclaimer<\/p>\n In line with the Trust Project<\/a> guidelines, this price analysis article is for informational purposes only and should not be considered financial or investment advice.
