The mounting unrealized losses of Bitmine shareholders and Ether’s 60% decline are signaling a critical inflection point that may define Ether’s medium-term momentum, analysts said.

Continued selling from treasury companies and US Bitcoin ETFs threatens a deeper retracement for BTC, but some analysts see it as a sign of a healthy flush in speculative leverage. Corporate Bitcoin treasury companies posted a rare three-week selling streak, a shift analysts say could deepen Bitcoin’s pullback if fresh demand doesn’t emerge. Bitcoin (BTC) treasury companies logged three consecutive weeks of selling, according to Capriole Investments’ Bitcoin Treasuries buy and sell indicator shared by educational platform Coin Bureau.
