Bitcoin Holds Near $112,000 as Old Coins Move On-Chain and $114,000 Test Looms

ETF demand faces a fresh supply wave from long-dormant holders.

Overview

  • An on-chain shift of 7,626 BTC aged three to five years was reported by analyst Maartunn, signaling renewed distribution from long-term holders toward institutional channels.
  • BTC is trading near $112,000 after a rebound from the $109,000–$110,000 area, with the 50-, 100- and 200-day moving averages clustered around $111,000–$115,000 creating resistance.
  • Analysts say a daily close above $114,000 is needed to confirm a sustained uptrend, with BitBull warning that rebounds remain vulnerable to bull traps until that level is reclaimed.
  • Support levels to watch include $108,000 and around $105,000, and Mags cautions that a break below $108,000 could lead to a slide below $100,000.
  • Market participants credit spot ETF inflows with absorbing some selling pressure, leaving Bitcoin roughly 9%–11% below its $124,500 all-time high.
