Weak Sentiment Lingers Despite Bitcoin’s Relief Rally

[bonk]

Despite Bitcoin’s sharp rebound above $69,000, underlying sentiment metrics suggest caution. The short-term holder spent output profit ratio (SOPR) recently fell to its lowest level since November 2022, indicating that many recent buyers have been selling at a loss. This reflects fragile conviction during the recent correction, even as price attempts to break higher.

For the rally to evolve into a broader bull trend, analysts say two conditions are key: sustained whale accumulation and a recovery in the short-term SOPR above 1 — signaling that newer investors are no longer exiting at a loss. Until then, Bitcoin’s breakout may be followed by a period of consolidation before a stronger directional move emerges.
