CryptoQuant, a leading cryptocurrency analytics firm, has pointed out that while there are growing assertions about Bitcoin reaching its lowest point, the on-chain data does not yet support this claim. Currently trading around $80,870, Bitcoin faces significant resistance due to the cost zones of investors who are at a loss.
The analysis reveals that the realized cost prices for three distinct groups of investors exceed the current market price. Specifically, those who have held Bitcoin for 3 to 6 months have a realized cost price of $88,880. Meanwhile, investors holding for 12 to 18 months have an even higher threshold at $93,450. The group with the most substantial supply is comprised of those who held their investments between 6 and 12 months; their average cost stands at $111,850. CryptoQuant emphasizes that these levels act as critical “break-even points” for those facing losses.

The firm asserts that before confirming any bottoming out of Bitcoin’s price trajectory, it must first break through and sustain above the $88,880 mark. Their analysis indicates that mere short-term rallies will not suffice; rather than just breaking through this level temporarily—it needs robust defense post-breakout. Achieving this would allow newer investors to return to profitability while alleviating initial selling pressure.
Furthermore, CryptoQuant highlights ongoing selling pressure within the range of $85,000 to $88,000 from investors who purchased during November 2025 through February 2026. Each upward movement is perceived as a major distribution zone where these individuals aim to exit their positions without incurring losses.
