Bitcoin bottom? BTC builds massive support wall amid ‘one of the largest transfers ever’
Has Bitcoin found a bottom strong enough to withstand the bears?
Bitcoin endured a heavy liquidity outflow between October 2025 and February 2026, before staging a rebound across March and April that largely restored the positive sentiment surrounding the asset.
That relief rally proved short-lived, however, as Bitcoin [BTC] slipped back onto a downward path through May and has held to that same structure since June began.
Market activity now reads as decidedly subdued, and the threat of a deeper drop continues to build. Yet beneath that pressure, Bitcoin may have quietly carved out a key support zone—one that could seal off the path to further decline and reshape how the asset performs from here.
Bitcoin accumulation wall takes shape
A recent report from Checkonchain indicates that Bitcoin may have constructed a substantial support wall across the $60,000 to $70,000 region, drawn from its supply distribution.
According to the findings, 20% of Bitcoin’s circulating supply has changed hands within that band, establishing a meaningful accumulation floor for the asset. The supply distribution itself maps how ownership of Bitcoin has transferred into different hands over time.
Pseudonymous CryptoQuant market analyst Darkfost frames the development as a sweeping shift among the cohort of investors now steering the market.
“This is surely one of the largest transfers from weak hands to strong hands that BTC has ever seen.”
He added that the chart still fails to capture the full picture, as recent Coinbase movements of Bitcoin near the $85,000 mark have distorted the asset’s broader outlook.
Bitcoin holders aren’t helping
Mounting pressure continues to weigh on Bitcoin, and the consequences of this level are already playing out across the market. Long-term holders (LTHs) have been steadily offloading their coins.
The Bitcoin Binary CDD (Coin Days Destroyed) currently registers a reading near 1, a signal that long-dormant coins are moving once again and that this group of holders has tilted firmly bearish.
The Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) offers another read on holder behavior, measuring whether holders are selling their Bitcoin above or below the price they paid for it.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s SOPR sits below 1 at an exact reading of 0.994, meaning sellers are taking a loss on these trades and deepening the losses already weighing on the market.
Notably, the SOPR is edging closer to 1 and could soon trade above it. A clean break above that threshold would indicate investors have returned to profit, lending further weight to a bullish shift in the price outlook.
Bitcoin reserves slide lower
Exchange reserve data shows a steady decline in the amount of Bitcoin now available across trading platforms.
As of this writing, the value of Bitcoin held on exchanges over the two-week stretch from the 4th of June has fallen by roughly $2 billion, reaching a low of $240.3 billion.
A continued decline would strengthen the case that fewer coins remain on exchanges ready to be sold, reinforcing the argument for Bitcoin holding the level it currently trades within.
Final Summary
- A large chunk of Bitcoin’s supply has quietly moved into the hands of long-term holders, building a floor that could slow further price drops.
- Coins are still being sold at a slight loss for now, but the moment sellers return to profit would mark a meaningful shift.
