a modest 4% increase over two weeks, new on-chain data suggests the cryptocurrency may be preparing for another leg higher that could eventually lead to fresh all-time highs.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"515\" data-end=\"561\">Mid-term holders\u2019 realized price breached<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"563\" data-end=\"872\">According to analysis published on CryptoQuant by contributor ShayanMarkets, Bitcoin\u2019s rebound from $107,000 to $114,000 has pushed the asset above the Realized Price of mid-term holders \u2014 wallets that last moved coins within the past three to six months.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"563\" data-end=\"872\">This Realized Price currently stands near $114,000.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"874\" data-end=\"1342\">The Realized Price is considered a key pivot level that often reflects market sentiment and possible sell pressure.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"874\" data-end=\"1342\">By climbing above this threshold, Bitcoin has reduced the likelihood of immediate selling from this cohort.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"874\" data-end=\"1342\">ShayanMarkets noted that a firm breakout and consolidation above $114,000 could signal renewed confidence among mid-term holders.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"874\" data-end=\"1342\">This, in turn, could provide the foundation for a new bullish phase capable of driving BTC toward record levels.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1344\" data-end=\"1507\">However, the analyst cautioned that failure to maintain this level risks weakening sentiment and could open the door to deeper corrective moves in the near term.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1514\" data-end=\"1558\">Short-term holders show signs of stress<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1560\" data-end=\"1871\">Other on-chain signals paint a more cautious picture.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1560\" data-end=\"1871\">CryptoQuant contributor Gaah highlighted the behavior of short-term holders (STH) by examining the Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR), adjusted with a 30-day moving average.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1560\" data-end=\"1871\">This metric measures whether investors are selling their coins at a profit or loss.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1873\" data-end=\"2177\">Gaah observed that after four months of trading above break-even, the STH SOPR has slipped into negative territory, indicating that short-term holders are now realizing losses.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1873\" data-end=\"2177\">This shift suggests a temporary loss of confidence among speculative investors, who are more sensitive to price fluctuations.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2179\" data-end=\"2590\">Despite Bitcoin\u2019s broader rally from $60,000 to $125,000 over the past year, the SOPR STH metric has shown declining peaks.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2179\" data-end=\"2590\">In previous cycles, sharp price surges were accompanied by SOPR readings in the \u201cExtreme Greed\u201d zone, reflecting strong retail participation.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2179\" data-end=\"2590\">This time, however, such dynamics have not been observed, implying that institutional investors may be the primary drivers behind recent gains.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2592\" data-end=\"2865\">Gaah added that historically, market tops are usually confirmed when short-term holders exhibit extreme greed.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2592\" data-end=\"2865\">As this has not occurred, the analyst suggested the current pullback may simply be part of a healthy consolidation rather than a signal of a long-term reversal.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"2872\" data-end=\"2913\">Mixed outlook as year-end approaches<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2915\" data-end=\"3190\">Market observers remain divided on Bitcoin\u2019s near-term prospects.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2915\" data-end=\"3190\">Some analysts caution that the cryptocurrency may be approaching the peak of its current cycle, while others anticipate a short-term downturn in September before a renewed rally in the final quarter of 2025.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3192\" data-end=\"3448\">Forecasts vary widely, with some projecting Bitcoin could reach as high as $150,000 by Christmas if bullish momentum persists.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3192\" data-end=\"3448\">For now, the asset trades at $115,050, up 0.7% in the past 24 hours, as it attempts to build support above key on-chain levels.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3450\" data-end=\"3702\">With both bullish and cautionary signals present, investors are closely watching Bitcoin\u2019s ability to hold above the mid-term holders\u2019 Realized Price, as this may determine whether the next phase of the rally begins or if a deeper correction unfolds.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4
