BTC Traders Remain Far From -12% Capitulation Zone – What Does This Mean?NewsBTC, about 6 hours ago
Bitcoin recorded a slight 1.50% price gain in the past 24 hours, with prices now hovering within the $109,000 price range, after a significant price correction from last week. While general market sentiment remains neutral, recent data from blockchain analytics firm CryptoQuant suggests the leading cryptocurrency may experience further price drops before any potential full rebound. Related Reading: Bitcoin Daily Close Spurs Caution – $110,500 Breakdown Could Shift Momentum Bitcoin Needs Deeper Losses For Strong Rebound Signal: Data In an X post on August 30, top market analyst Ali Martinez shares an important insight into a potential Bitcoin price recovery. Using data from CryptoQuant, Martinez identifies that the Bitcoin Trader Realized Profit/Loss Margin (P/L Margin) sat at-0.60% when prices traded at $111,337, indicating that the present P/L Margin is around -2.2%. Nevertheless, this P/L level stands in sharp contrast to historical capitulation thresholds. In previous cycles, Bitcoin has staged strong rebounds once the P/L margin fell to around -12%, marking heavy realized losses among short-term holders and creating the conditions for aggressive accumulation by larger entities. For example, during the market downturn of April 2025, margins collapsed beyond -12%, shortly before Bitcoin rebounded from sub-$75,000 levels to reclaim the six-figure range. A similar pattern occurred in July 2023 and October 2023, when capitulation below -12% preceded the significant levels of price rebounds. Currently, with margins hovering just around -2%, it is unlikely to see a textbook capitulation-driven rebound. This data suggests that deeper realized losses may be necessary before strong upside momentum resumes. However, this further price correction is not guaranteed. Alternatively, Bitcoin could also continue to trade sideways to gather momentum before initiating a price upswing. Related Reading: Analyst Says XRP Price Is Yet To Hit Its First Bearish Target – Details Bitcoin Market Outlook At the time of writing, Bitcoin trades at $109,528, reflecting a modest 1.50% intraday gain as earlier stated. However, the premier cryptocurrency remains under pressure, with losses of 5.51% on the weekly chart and 5.31% over the past month, signaling that many recent market entrants are holding at a loss. According to CryptoQuant’s data, Bitcoin’s realized price, which represents the average cost basis of all coins, currently stands at approximately $112,000. Historically, trading below the realized price suggests weaker investor conviction and heightened selling pressure from traders in loss, while sustained periods above it tend to coincide with bullish market phases. For market sentiment to stabilize, bulls must decisively reclaim the $112,000 realized price level. A successful breakout above this threshold could effectively halt the ongoing correction and pave the way for a rebound, with potential upside targets around $116,000.

Ethereum Community Foundation Rolls Out BETH to Make Token Burns VisibleBeInCrypto, about 6 hours ago
The Ethereum Community Foundation (ECF) has rolled out a new token, BETH, which serves as a verifiable record of Ether permanently removed from circulation. The launch underscores the foundation’s mission to restore Ethereum’s focus on ETH as a core asset. It also aims to strengthen Ethereum’s monetary design at a time when debates about scarcity remain unresolved What is the BETH Token? Unveiled on August 28, the program operates through a smart contract that accepts ETH and forwards it to an irretrievable burn address. It then issues an equal amount of BETH back to the contributor. The foundation argued that Ethereum’s existing system, introduced with EIP-1559, already eliminates a portion of fees with every transaction. However, those removals remain largely abstract. BETH, by contrast, offers a tangible representation that can circulate in applications and protocols. The ECF described the token as a building block for proof-of-burn. It makes the mechanism usable in governance frameworks, incentive models, and new forms of decentralized coordination. “As Ethereum continues to evolve, BETH highlights the role of scarcity and destruction as equally powerful forces alongside creation and issuance,” the foundation stated. Ethereum core developer and ECF founder Zak Cole compared the design to wrapped Ether. He explained that just as WETH standardizes ETH for smart contracts, BETH provides a clean layer for tracking burns. He suggested that the token could enable mechanics such as burn-based voting and auctions where bids are denominated in destruction rather than revenue. It could also support namespaces that expire unless sustained by continued burning. At the same time, Cole warned that users should treat BETH strictly as a receipt system, not as a new asset with intrinsic value. The introduction of BETH comes as Ethereum’s monetary policy continues to attract debate. Since the 2021 London upgrade, the network has burned roughly 4.6 million ETH while issuing more than 8 million new tokens over the same period. Ethereum’s Circulating Supply. Source: Ultrasound.Money This mismatch has prompted analysts to question whether Ethereum’s design can consistently enforce scarcity. However, Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin expressed confidence that the community will embrace the new model. He said developers are already exploring ways to build on BETH, suggesting that proof-of-burn could evolve into industries of its own. “Burning ETH is going to be a very lucrative thing to do, as it will spawn industries. And a very fun thing to do, as it will become a popular mechanic in Web3 games. This is one way people will get paid to play in Web3,” he added.

What to Expect From Ethereum in SeptemberBeInCrypto, about 7 hours ago
Ethereum (ETH) price seems to be ending August on a strong note, gaining over 23% and breaking a three-year streak of negative August performances. Unlike Bitcoin, which has struggled through the month, the ETH price has shown resilience. However, September has historically been one of Ethereum’s weaker months, with only marginal gains of 3.20% in 2024 and 1.49% in 2023 after a series of red Septembers before that. Now, with the charts flashing mixed signals, ETH could be headed for a choppy month. Long-Term Holders May Book Profits One key metric to watch is Ethereum’s Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL), which measures the overall profitability of holders. A high NUPL means most wallets are sitting on profits, often a signal that some may take profit. Ethereum’s long-term holder NUPL currently sits at 0.62, close to its three-month high. Ethereum Holders Might Book Profits: Glassnode In the past, similar levels have triggered corrections. On August 17, when NUPL touched 0.63, ETH fell from $4,475 to $4,077 (-8.9%). Later that month, at 0.66, ETH dropped from $4,829 to $4,380 (-9.3%). This suggests that September could bring volatility or range-bound action. Ethereum Price’s Historical Performance: CryptoRank Historically, September hasn’t been ETH’s strongest month. That history, combined with high NUPL, supports the case for choppiness. For token TA and market updates: Want more token insights like this? Sign up for Editor Harsh Notariya’s Daily Crypto Newsletter here. Still, long-term fundamentals remain supportive of a price surge. In an exclusive interview with BeInCrypto, Kevin Rusher, CEO of RAAC, explained: “In September, I expect the drivers for Ethereum’s price to remain largely the same as they are today, key among these the growing trend of companies buying up ETH for their treasuries. In fact, just this week, Standard Chartered named this as the main reason for increasing its ETH price target to $7,500, he mentioned” This treasury accumulation trend, alongside Ethereum’s role in DeFi and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, could help cushion downside moves even if near-term volatility persists. Cost Basis Heatmap Highlights Critical Resistance Another important metric is the Cost Basis Heatmap, which shows where ETH was last accumulated. These zones often act as natural support or resistance. Key ETH Accumulation Clusters: Glassnode The strongest support cluster lies between $4,323 and $4,375, where more than 962,000 ETH were accumulated. Below that, additional zones exist at $4,271–$4,323 (418,872 ETH) and $4,219–$4,271 (329,451 ETH), providing buffers in case the Ethereum price dips. The heavier challenge lies higher. Between $4,482 and $4,592, nearly 1.9 million ETH were accumulated, making this a formidable resistance zone. If the ETH price clears this, momentum could extend toward $4,956. More on this later when we discuss the Ethereum price action Technical Charts Signal At Ethereum Price Choppiness The 2-day Ethereum price chart shows that it has broken below an ascending trendline. This doesn’t confirm a bearish reversal, but it does suggest fading bullish momentum. The Relative Strength Index (RSI), which measures the speed and strength of price movements, has formed a bearish divergence — with price making higher highs while RSI trended lower. This typically signals weakening strength and a likelihood of range-bound trading, more so if it forms on a longer timeframe. Ethereum Price Analysis: TradingView If ETH reclaims $4,579 (almost breaking the cost basis resistance), upside momentum could return, with the key target at $4,956. On the downside, watch $4,345 and $4,156 as important support levels. A break below $4,156 could open further downside risks, while a sustained hold above $4,579 keeps $4,956 (close to $5,000, which is a key psychological level) within reach. However, for Ethereum, that level couldn’t just be the start of something bigger, as summed up by Rusher. “Yes, $5,000 is still a meaningful milestone. Psychologically, investors like round numbers, plus it’s a fresh all-time high. Once ETH gets past the $5,000 mark, it will eventually become a strongly defended support level, he added” However, if the Ethereum price closes under $4,156 with a complete 2-day candle, the bullish narrative might take some more time to materialize. And with the long-term holder NUPL closing in on 3-month highs, talks regarding choppiness find more weight.

Bitcoin Price Analysis Reveals Market-Bottom Cues, but $113,500 Remains the Key TestBeInCrypto, about 8 hours ago
Bitcoin (BTC) is trading around $108,700, flat on the day but still down over 6% in the past month and about 5% over the last week. The muted Bitcoin price action reflects broader caution across the market, but under the surface, on-chain signals suggest that a rebound narrative is growing stronger. Short-term holder capitulation, realized price clusters, and technical levels together point to a market preparing for its next decisive move. Short-Term Holder SOPR Shows Weak Hands Exiting The Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) measures whether coins moved on-chain were sold at a profit or loss. For short-term holders—who are usually the most reactive—the metric provides a near-real-time gauge of sentiment. With Bitcoin’s price sliding in recent weeks, the short-term SOPR has dropped to 0.982 (on August 29), its lowest level in months. This means that a large share of short-term holders are selling at a loss, often interpreted as capitulation by weak hands. Historically, such behavior clears the market of short-term speculators, creating conditions for stronger hands to step in. Bitcoin Short-Term Holders Hinting At Market Bottom: Cryptoquant A parallel can be seen on April 17, when SOPR touched 0.94, a one-year low. At the time, Bitcoin bottomed at $84,800 before rebounding 31.6% to $111,600 once SOPR flipped back above 1. The current move exhibits a similar setup, suggesting that this latest capitulation may signal a market bottom. For token TA and market updates: Want more token insights like this? Sign up for Editor Harsh Notariya’s Daily Crypto Newsletter here. At press time, the short-term holder SOPR metric has risen to 0.99 but remains around the multi-week lows. URPD Highlights Heavy Support and Resistance Clusters The UTXO Realized Price Distribution (URPD) maps where the existing BTC supply last moved, providing insight into support and resistance. Each cluster represents price levels where large amounts of Bitcoin were bought, creating natural barriers. Key BTC Price Clusters: Glassnode At the lower end, $107,000 anchors a strong cluster of 286,255 BTC (1.44%), while $108,200 ($108,253.26 on the chart) holds 447,544 BTC (2.25%). These concentrations explain why the Bitcoin price has steadied around the $108,000 zone despite continued selling pressure. Interestingly, the latest SOPR low coincided with Bitcoin trading near $108,300 — almost the same as the $108,200 URPD cluster — reinforcing this area as a possible market bottom zone. On the upside, resistance builds quickly. $113,200 (close to the key $113,500 level ) holds 210,708 BTC (1.06%), and $114,400 holds 220,562 BTC (1.11%). The most significant barrier lies at $116,900, where 2.88% of the supply was last transacted—the heaviest wall in this region. For bulls, reclaiming this zone is critical for any sustainable rebound. Bitcoin Price Levels to Watch Technically, Bitcoin’s swing low at $107,300 remains the key invalidation level (close to the lowest key URPD anchor of $107,000). A close below it would confirm a bearish continuation and undermine the market bottom thesis. On the rebound side, reclaiming $109,700 is the first sign of strength. Above that, $112,300 (Fib 0.5) and $113,500 (Fib 0.618) are the breakout zones that bulls need to flip. Per visual cues, the $113,500 is a repeated rejection zone for the current Bitcoin price and remains the most critical level to change the narrative Bitcoin Price Analysis: TradingView For now, the story connects clearly. Weak hands are exiting (SOPR), strong hands are defending key clusters (URPD), and price is hovering near support. If the Bitcoin price pushes above $117,400, it could confirm renewed strength. But failure to hold $107,300 would tilt the narrative back to the bears.
