Here’s Why Bitcoin Must Hold Crucial Support At $63,111 – Analyst

The Bitcoin market recorded another week of volatile price action, but continues to consolidate a defined range between $60,000 – $70,000.  Bearish sentiments remain at a heightened level, considering the downtrend observed in recent months and the non-confirmation of a cycle bottom.  Notably, recent on-chain data has revealed the importance of a particular support level, which, if breached, could expose investors to steeper downsides and extend the crypto winter.

The URPD metric, which tracks how much of the existing Bitcoin supply moved at price levels, shows a significant concentration of coins around the $63,000 range, suggesting strong holder positioning at this level. However, the data also reveals that below $63,111, supply density drops considerably until the next major accumulation cluster at approximately $46,702. This “air pocket” in realized supply indicates that if BTC decisively loses the $63,111 support, price action could accelerate to the downside due to the absence of strong cost-basis support in the interim zone. Beyond $46,702, Martinez identifies $41,653 and $37,867 as additional key support levels, where a notable amount of Bitcoin last changed hands. These levels represent significant holder cost bases and may act as demand zones should bearish pressure intensify. The structure observed on the URPD chart suggests a delicate market set-up, where Bitcoin is currently hovering above a critical support cluster. A breakdown below $63,111 could trigger renewed selling pressure, potentially pushing several classes of investors further into unrealized losses and increasing the risk of capitulation.

Bitcoin Price Overview At the time of writing, Bitcoin trades at $66,677, reflecting a modest 1.15% gain in the last 24 hours. Despite this slight rebound, underlying sentiment suggests that panic may be gradually creeping into the market structure. According to the classic market cycle psychology model shared by Martinez, Bitcoin appears to be transitioning from anxiety and denial toward a more fragile phase where confidence weakens and volatility increases. While the modest daily gain offers temporary relief, the broader psychological landscape indicates that the market is gradually entering panic mode, suggesting an impending emotional sell-off by investors that would force prices to lower bands. With a market cap of $1.33 trillion, Bitcoin continues to rank as the largest digital asset and the 13th largest asset in the world. Featured image from Getty Images/Unsplash, chart from Tradingview

Say What You Want — XRP’s Chart Is Screaming $50 — Analyst

XRP has had a rough few months. After touching a high of roughly $3.66 in mid-2025, the token has since pulled back sharply, recently hovering around $1.30. That is a steep drop by any measure. Related Reading: Crypto Mixing Is Back — And Criminals Adapted Faster Than The Rules Did But one widely followed crypto commentator is not backing down from a bold long-term call — and his argument rests entirely on what he sees in the charts. A Chart That Points Higher, Way Higher The analyst, known on X as CryptoBull, posted a monthly XRP/USD chart showing what he described as a multi-year consolidation pattern followed by a fresh breakout attempt heading into 2026. His conclusion was blunt: a move to $50 looks like a “natural and normal” extension of the current structure. “No matter your feelings,” he wrote, “the chart says $50.” Based on reports, CryptoBull has been building this case for some time, and the $50 figure is not pulled out of thin air — it falls squarely within the $28 to $70 target band he had previously laid out using higher timeframe analysis. You can’t tell me that #XRP to $50 is not a very natural and normal looking chart. No matter your feelings, the chart says $50. pic.twitter.com/QHfBOPQ3hg — CryptoBull (@CryptoBull2020) February 14, 2026 At current prices, a run to $50 would mean gains of more than 3,500%. That is a big number. But CryptoBull has been consistent in pushing back against the even wilder figures that circulate in XRP circles. He has publicly rejected price targets of $1,000 or $10,000, calling them unsupported by any credible chart structure. By his own standards, $50 is the measured, reasonable call. For context, a $28 XRP price would put its total market value near $1.7 trillion. At $70, that figure climbs above $4 trillion. Extreme? Yes. But far more grounded than the multi-hundred-trillion valuations implied by some of the more outlandish targets floating around online. History As A Reference Point CryptoBull has also pointed to XRP’s own track record to support his thesis. Reports say he reminded his followers that XRP once surged 3,500% — climbing from $0.11 all the way to $3.65 in a single market cycle.

A move to $50 would actually exceed that, coming in closer to the 3,500% range — roughly matching the scale of that earlier historic run. $XRP‘s measured move target above $15 goes unchanged! The breakout that took place in late 2024 hints at another 10X (>900% Increase) being possible to those price levels… pic.twitter.com/dbuZFcVCvj — JAVON⚡️MARKS (@JavonTM1) February 25, 2026 Other analysts have echoed a similarly constructive view. Javon Marks has maintained that his measured price target above $15 remains unchanged, citing the same late-2024 breakout structure that CryptoBull references. Korean Elliott Wave analyst XForceGlobal has also weighed in, saying XRP’s chart looks strong after the token revisited its previous all-time high zone and fully retraced toward the $1 area — a reset he believes can come before a powerful upward move.

Bitcoin Whale Inflows On Binance Reach Highest Level Since 2022

With the Bitcoin price evidently in a bear cycle, there were not a lot of positives to take from the market’s performance in the past month. According to a recent on-chain observation, March seems set to be a continuation of the worrying trend, as a relevant metric paints a bearish picture for the world’s leading cryptocurrency. Whale Activity Rouses Expectations Of Sell Pressure  In a recent Quicktake post on the CryptoQuant platform, analyst Arab Chain revealed a critical change in Bitcoin’s whale behavior, as reflected on the Binance Whale To Exchange Flow. This metric tracks the total amount of Bitcoin transferred by large holders into Binance over a 30-day period.  Related Reading: Bitcoin ETF Investors Show Diamond Hands: Only $6.5B In Outflows Since October 10 According to Arab Chain, the whale inflow to Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, spiked to as high as $8.8 billion, marking an expansion toward new highs not seen since early 2022. Interestingly, this surge in exchange inflows was seen at the same time Bitcoin was trading at around $64,000. Arab Chain further explained that the sudden, large exchange inflows from these BTC whales suggest a significant rise in the activity of this investor group. According to historical data, these large movements to trading platforms indicate the intentions of whales to sell.  However, more than just a signal of potential sell pressure, this event could also be an indication that Bitcoin’s whales are reallocating their positions. Regardless of the prevalent intent among this investor group, it appears that these whales are preparing for a major move or shift in the Bitcoin market. Arab Chain also referenced observations from comparing the current move to that which occurred in 2021. According to the analytics group, 2021 “saw price peaks followed by sharp corrections after waves of large whale inflows to exchanges.” — and because this is recurring today, it might be a sign of “increased potential selling pressure, or at least a willingness among large investors to manage risk at elevated price levels.” But then, Arab Chain pointed out that surges in exchange inflows do not necessarily mean a bearish period would follow, as some cycles only witnessed high volatility before price continued to expand. Nonetheless, the present conditions reveal that the Bitcoin market is at a “crossroads,” where its price action in the coming weeks could be pivotal in determining what’s next for the asset.  Bitcoin Price At A Glance At the time of this writing, the price of BTC stands at $67,960, reflecting a nearly 3% jump in the past 24 hours.  Related Reading: Bitcoin Historical Cycle Pattern Points To $31,500 Bottom Target – Details Featured image from Shutterstock, chart from TradingView

Bitcoin STH Holds Steady: No Panic Amid Middle East Conflict – Details

Market analyst MorenoDV_ reports a muted response by Bitcoin short-term holders (STH) to a combined attack by the US and Israel on Iran. The observation is important considering the previous sell-offs that have dominated the market in recent months. Related Reading: Bitcoin In The Line Of Fire: Price Dips To $63k As US, Israel Launch Strikes On Iran Bitcoin STH Reaction To Geopolitical Conflict Signals Seller Exhaustion – What Next?  The Bitcoin short-term holders refer to a cohort of investors who acquired Bitcoin over the last 155 days. They are described as the most reactive set of investors, and therefore, activity is often indicative of short-term volatility and price direction. According to MorenoDV_ in a QuickTake post on February 27, these short-term holders are showing a moderate market response to the heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East after the US and Israel launched a coordinated attack on Iran. Using data from the Bitcoin STH P&L to exchanges 24H, the renowned market analyst reports subdued inflows to exchanges, indicating no panic profit taking or loss capitulation, even despite an event that has historically triggered a mass sell-off. MorenoDV_ explains that this shift in market behavior came after the major market capitulation between February 5-6, when Bitcoin short-term holders sent 89,000 BTC to exchanges at a loss within 24 hours. Following this event, loss-driven inflows appear to have steadily reduced, indicating sellers’ exhaustion, or a positive shift from panic to patience. With respect to the conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran, there was no spike in STH exchange inflows even as prices dipped to around $63,000-$64,000. MorenoDV_ states that this important observation suggests a complete exit of weak hands from the market as well as significant absorption of recent liquidation pressure. Looking ahead, if the STH holders maintain a muted response to other bearish triggers, it would suggest a market stabilization phase that has historically preceded a bullish market recovery arc. On the other hand, an increase in STH exchange inflows and realized losses would indicate market drawdown is incomplete, and investors still stand at risk of further decline.

In tandem, daily trading volume is up by 0.81% and valued at $40.81 billion. The premier cryptocurrency continues to move within a defined range of $60,000-$70,000 as seen for the majority of February. While analysts continue to speculate on the cycle bottom, the conditions for a bullish reversal, such as a recovery in ETF inflows, a spike in LTH demand, or a dovish Fed outlook, also remain absent.
