Cryptocurrencies are extending declines earlier in the week. Bitcoin lost almost 0.7% at the start of Monday’s session, Ethereum almost 1.5% and Solana almost 2.2%. On Friday we observed another consecutive daily net outflow of nearly $190 million from spot ETFs.
The extension of the downside momentum raises the possibility that the most popular cryptocurrency could test another major technical support point, which is marked by both the 100-day exponential moving average (purple curve in the chart below; running in the $64,000 zone ) and the realized price of short-term BTC holders, which represents the average purchase price of Bitcoin by wallets with an average holding period for these digital assets of less than 155 days.
