Despite recent volatility, several key indicators are pointing to a bullish undercurrent for Bitcoin (BTC). These include Binance’s rising market dominance, renewed accumulation by long-term holders (LTH), and significant BTC withdrawals from major crypto exchanges. Bitcoin Showing Signs Of Renewed Strength At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading in the mid-$100,000 range – approximately 6.1% below its latest all-time high (ATH) recorded on May 22. The flagship cryptocurrency has declined more than 3.5% over the past seven days amid renewed concerns over global trade tensions and tariffs.

However, according to a recent CryptoQuant Quicktake post by contributor Amr Taha, several bullish signals have emerged since the start of June. Most notably, the LTH Net Position Realized Cap recently crossed the $20 billion threshold, reflecting increased confidence among seasoned investors. For context, LTHs are entities that have held BTC for over 155 days. Often referred to as “smart money,” these investors typically follow long-term strategies and are less likely to sell during short-term market corrections. The Realized Cap metric tracks the total value of BTC held by LTHs, based on the price at which coins were last moved. A rising value in this metric implies accumulation by long-term investors – behavior that historically precedes bullish continuation phases. Meanwhile, major exchanges such as Kraken and Bitfinex have witnessed substantial BTC outflows. Over two consecutive days, more than 20,000 BTC exited these platforms – marking one of the largest short-term withdrawal spikes in recent months. Such major Bitcoin withdrawals from exchanges are considered bullish because they signal that investors intend to hold their BTC in private wallets rather than sell it, reducing the available supply for trading. This supply contraction can create upward pressure on price, especially when demand remains steady or increases. At the same time, Binance has strengthened its lead in spot market dominance. Since early June, its share of BTC spot trading volume has increased from 26% to 35%, signalling growing market activity. This uptick aligns with BTC testing key resistance levels. Taha remarked: The convergence of rising exchange dominance, long-term holder confidence, and supply tightening paints a bullish picture for Bitcoin. While short-term corrections are possible, the underlying demand and reduction in available BTC on exchanges suggest that the uptrend is far from over. BTC Benefitting From Neutral Funding Rates, Low Selling Pressure Recent on-chain data shows that the BTC derivatives market has undergone a complete reset, with its funding rates now hovering around zero, not showing any directional bias. Similarly, selling pressure on BTC has remained subdued, evident from low Binance inflows.

Cardi B’s recent post about the meme token Wet A*s P*ssy (WAP) turned into a dramatic market shakeup. Within minutes, WAP’s market cap plunged from $2 million to just $150,000. The token’s price shot up to $0.0020 briefly, then tumbled over 90% back to $0.00019, wiping away almost all of this week’s gains. Related Reading: Is $250K Bitcoin Possible This Year? This Research Chief Thinks So Celebrity Tweet Sparks Chaos According to reports, Cardi B shared a wallet address on her official X account with the caption “even wetter than last time.” That single message sent ripples through the crypto world. Prices leaped, then crashed. Market watchers were left scratching their heads as billions of dollars in value seemed to vanish in mere moments. Suspicious Wallet Activity Blockchain trackers spotted something odd. A handful of wallets bought big chunks of WAP just five days before the tweet. They offloaded their tokens almost immediately after Cardi B’s post, banking roughly 10 times their original stake. So today, @iamcardib remembered that she still held a large portion of the $WAP supply and decided to run another pump and dump. The token went from 2.5M to 139k a couple of minutes after the tweet The dump was triggered by some wallets that bought the token around five days… pic.twitter.com/7Nwr27rcZA — dethective (@dethective) June 3, 2025 These sudden sells helped push the token’s price back down to around $0.00019. Based on reports, this pattern looks like a classic pump-and-dump. It raises questions about whether insiders planned the entire move. POV you might owe millions pic.twitter.com/j9FGLgoSBM — ZachXBT (@zachxbt) June 4, 2025 History Of WAP Controversies This isn’t the first time WAP caused trouble. Back in October 2024, Cardi B gave it a shout-out, and security firm PeckShield flagged the token for possible malicious deeds. That earlier buzz even led to an investigation by the UAE’s Securities and Commodities Authority after investors raised alarms over fraud and market manipulation. Many in the crypto community thought everyone would steer clear this time. Instead, the past slipped from memory, leading to heavy losses all over again. Investors Left Holding The Bag In the last 24 hours, WAP’s value dropped another 80%. Now it trades near the same levels it was at the end of May. Everyday traders who jumped on the hype found themselves staring at red numbers. Based on reports, some wallets walked away with tenfold returns in minutes. Meanwhile, others ended up with nearly worthless tokens. The speed of this rise-and-fall serves as a harsh reminder: if you buy a token right as it peaks, you might be stuck when the next crash hits.

Yet this explanation did little to calm nerves. Critics say it’s hard to separate the artist’s genuine interest from a planned marketing push. Some point out that even if she didn’t directly benefit, her endorsement gave insiders exactly the spotlight they needed to unload their shares.

Despite the recent rally to a new all-time high (ATH) of $111,900, crypto analysts have warned that the Bitcoin price could still witness a massive crash that will send it below $100,000. These analysts highlighted fundamentals and technicals that could spark this price crash.  Analysts Highlight Why Bitcoin Price Could Still Crash Below $100,000 In a TradingView post, crypto analyst Stephan mentioned the geopolitical tensions, with the Russia-Ukraine conflict intensifying as one of the factors that could spark the Bitcoin price crash. He explained how this conflict could drive investors toward safe-haven assets, such as gold. The analyst also noted that Bitcoin ETFs experienced modest outflows last week. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Crash To $104,000: What You Need To Know In June Stephan’s accompanying chart showed that the Bitcoin price could drop to as low as $96,765 as it retests the psychological $100,000 support level. Crypto analyst Nova also warned that Bitcoin could drop to $100,000 while providing a technical analysis of the flagship crypto’s current price action.  In a TradingView post, Nova stated that if the Bitcoin price faces resistance around the $106,406 daily level and continues to correct, it could extend the decline to retest the psychologically important $100,000 mark. She further revealed that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart is at 53, trending downwards to the neutral level of 50. This indicates weakening bullish momentum. Nova also stated that the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) showed a bearish crossover last week. Meanwhile, the analyst alluded to the increasing red histogram bars below the baseline, which she claimed further signal a potential correction ahead. Her accompanying chart showed that the Bitcoin price could drop to $99,000 as it retests the $100,000 level.  Crypto analyst Kevin Capital also called for caution at the current Bitcoin price level. He stated that nothing has changed for the flagship crypto and indicated that there was no need to be ultra bullish at this current level. The analyst earlier warned that things could get sketchy looking for BTC if it fails to reclaim $106,800 soon enough.  BTC Could Still Rally To $135,000 This Year In an X post, crypto analyst Titan of Crypto raised the possibility of the Bitcoin price rallying to $135,000 this year. He noted that BTC has broken out of a right-angled descending broadening wedge, and if the price holds above the breakout zone, $135,000 becomes a realistic target. The analyst added that the structure is clean.  Related Reading: Head And Shoulders Pattern Says Bitcoin Price Is Headed Down Toward $95,000 Crypto analyst Mikybull Crypto stated that the Bitcoin price is gearing up for a new all-time high. He further remarked that $120,000 remains a magnet for the flagship crypto in this market cycle. Meanwhile, veteran trader Peter Brandt predicted that BTC could reach $150,000 by late summer 2025.  At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $105,400, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

On-chain data shows the retail interest in Bitcoin has been waning as small-holder volume has gone down during the past month. Bitcoin Retail Investor Demand Has Seen A Negative 30-Day Change In a CryptoQuant Quicktake post, an analyst has talked about the latest trend in the “Retail Investor Demand” of Bitcoin. This indicator provides an estimate for, as its name suggests, the amount of demand that the smallest of investors, the ‘retail,’ have toward the cryptocurrency right now. The metric does so by referring to the transaction volume associated with this cohort. Considering the small wallet size attached to these holders, their transfers would typically remain under a value of $10,000, so the volume related to them can be separated from the rest of the market by only restricting to transfers below this size. Related Reading: Bitcoin 3–5 Year Holders Slow Selloff—Waiting for Higher Prices? Now, here is the chart shared by the quant that shows the 30-day percentage change in the Bitcoin Retail Investor Demand over the past year: As is visible in the above graph, the Bitcoin Retail Investor Demand saw its 30-day change enter into the positive territory when the latest bull rally first started, suggesting that the small investors increased their transfer activity. The 30-day change continued a gradual rise as the run played out, but after the cryptocurrency set its new all-time high (ATH), it noted a reversal in direction. Today, the metric has declined enough to dip back into the negative territory, meaning that retail investor volume is now going down on the monthly timeframe. From the chart, it’s also apparent that even at its peak, the 30-day change in the Retail Investor Demand never actually touched a high level this rally, which is in sharp contrast to the run from the end of 2024. Thus, it would appear that the recent price surge not only failed to ignite any notable level of interest among the small hands but also failed to maintain the attention that it did gather. The switch to a negative monthly change for the Retail Investor Demand could be down to the bearish action that the coin’s price has seen since the ATH, but the fact of the matter is that Bitcoin is currently still very much in range of this record, so it’s interesting to see this sentiment among the group.

As displayed in the chart, the Bitcoin miners have seen their volume share sharply go down recently and drop to the lowest level since 2022. This implies these chain validators have seen their activity plummet relative to the rest of the network. BTC Price Bitcoin has taken to sideways movement recently as its price is still trading around the $105,200 mark.

US President Donald Trump’s circle moved closer to rolling out two big crypto products this week. One announcement sparked a public mix‐up over who’s doing what. The other took a formal step toward a Bitcoin exchange‐traded fund. Both moves show the family’s push for more crypto ties. Related Reading: XRP Could Transform Your Finances Long Before $10K, Angel Investor Says Trump Token Wallet Claim Fuels Confusion According to reports, @GetTrumpMemes on X said on Tuesday that a new crypto wallet branded with US President Trump’s picture is coming. The post said Magic Eden will power the wallet and that users could grab up to $1 million in TRUMP token rewards by joining a waitlist. Some readers rushed to sign up. But then Donald Trump Jr., who serves as Web3 Ambassador to World Liberty Financial (WLFI), posted that his family isn’t involved in that exact product. He called out the official TRUMP token account and said WLFI will launch its own branded wallet at a later date. With Billions of Trump fans around the world, the $TRUMP mission has always been to make it super easy for Trump supporters to get into crypto and join the $TRUMP community. The $TRUMP Wallet powered by @magiceden is coming soon. Join the $TRUMP community!… pic.twitter.com/7nIubWIdqw — TrumpMeme (@GetTrumpMemes) June 3, 2025 Eric Trump chimed in too, saying he and his brother have no link to the version teased by the TRUMP token team. That disagreement left fans scratching their heads. Who really owns this wallet? It’s clear that the brand name draws attention, but so does the split between the token’s official page and the Trump family’s own statements. Family Firm Files For Bitcoin ETF Based on filings, NYSE Arca took the first legal step on Tuesday to list a Truth Social Bitcoin spot ETF. The 19b-4 request went to the US Securities and Exchange Commission. Yorkville American Digital, a Florida asset manager, is the sponsor. If approved, this would become the 13th US Bitcoin spot ETF and join big names like BlackRock and Fidelity. The move follows an April partnership between Trump Media and Crypto.com to launch “Made In America” exchange‐traded products that include Bitcoin and Crypto.com’s Cronos token. Back then, people in crypto circles saw a sign that Trump Media aims to bundle patriotism with digital coins. Now the new filing shows they’re serious about offering a mainstream Bitcoin fund. Related Reading: $500M Bet On Solana: Education Platform Aims To Supercharge Its Treasury Brand Mix Leads To Mixed Messages People watching this space know that WLFI dipped into stablecoins before. And Trump Media said it plans a Bitcoin Treasury worth $2.5 billion at launch. So the family name is already tied to crypto money. Yet the wallet announcement on X and the family’s denials highlight how fast things can sound official—especially when magic Eden and a popular meme token are involved. One side says, “We’re doing it,” while the other side says, “Not us.” When branding blurs the lines between projects, users may wonder which link to trust. That split can hurt credibility, even if the goal is to ride high on an eye‐catching name. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView
