Notable Developments:

Trader Notes: Crypto analyst The DeFi Investor said Bitcoin’s weekly relative strength index has dropped to its lowest reading on record, even below levels seen during the collapses of FTX and TerraUSD.

The extreme RSI reading underscores the intensity of the current selloff, though oversold conditions alone do not guarantee an immediate rebound.

Crypto chart analyst Ali Martinez noted that Bitcoin has historically formed major cycle bottoms when its MVRV Z-Score falls below zero. With the metric currently hovering near 1, he said the market has not yet reached classic bottom territory. That suggests further downside cannot be ruled out before a durable reversal forms.

Ted Pillows said liquidity is building in both directions. Heavy short positioning has created a sizable liquidation cluster above $65,000, which could fuel a squeeze if price breaks higher.

At the same time, long positions have not fully capitulated, leaving room for a potential dip toward $61,500 before any upside move that targets late short sellers.
