Unlike prior cycles, CryptoQuant believes that the current overheating is smaller in scale and duration.<\/p>\n<p>This means that Bitcoin could face a limited short-term dip in the near future.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"crypto-market-cools-off\">Crypto Market Cools Off<\/h2>\n<p>The data focuses on the proportion of Bitcoin held for just 1 day to 1 week \u2013 an important metric that hints at market froth. While previous corrections in March-October 2024 and January-April 2025 followed more intense and prolonged overheating phases, the current one appears less severe and shorter in duration.<\/p>\n<p>Given that the recent price uptick was relatively modest, CryptoQuant <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoquant.com\/insights\/quicktake\/688969909ecadc6fb5d91b30-The-Cryptocurrency-Market-Is-Cooling-Off-from-a-Short-Term-Overheating-Phase\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">expects<\/a> any near-term correction to be milder and shorter-lived. The analysis stated that this is part of a healthy cycle. A potential uptrend could emerge in the second half of 2025, especially if macroeconomic conditions and market sentiment turn favorable. Overall, the findings point to temporary consolidation rather than a full-blown downturn.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin is currently changing hands at $118K. But the recovery to this level has prompted long-term holders to <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-faces-pressure-as-long-term-holders-shift-to-selling-at-118k\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">offload<\/a> some of their stash. This is similar to past distribution cycles. Simultaneously, short-term holders are also facing shrinking gains.<\/p>\n<p>To top that, Matrixport also <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/from-232-to-13-what-happened-to-bitcoins-short-term-gains\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">warned<\/a> of a possible pause in Bitcoin\u2019s rally as traders face key macro events, including Fed decisions and a White House report. Historical weakness in August and September may trigger profit-taking and sideways action, even as long-term momentum remains positive.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"bullish-setup-intact\">Bullish Setup Intact<\/h2>\n<p>Amid signs of a temporary market cooldown, Bitcoin Vector <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/bitcoinvector\/status\/1950229532843397608\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">revealed<\/a> that Bitcoin is currently testing a key resistance level. Despite this, the overall structure remains bullish but lacks strong momentum. As such, a confirmed breakout above $120.5K would validate the continuation of the upward trend, while $112.5K serves as critical support on the downside.<\/p>\n<p>As long as Bitcoin holds this range, pullbacks may present buying opportunities.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-12\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div><center><span style=\"font-size:11px; color: gray;\">SPECIAL OFFER (Sponsored)<\/span><\/center><br \/>\n<b>Binance Free $600 (CryptoPotato Exclusive): <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/binance600f\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Use this link<\/a> to register a new account and receive $600 exclusive welcome offer on Binance<\/b> (<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/binance600d\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">full details<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><b>LIMITED OFFER for CryptoPotato readers at Bybit: <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pl\/bybit24\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Use this link<\/a> to register and open a $500 FREE position on any coin!<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/overheating-in-bitcoin-btc-market-less-severe-than-past-correction-phases\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The cryptocurrency market is cooling off after a brief period of short-term overheating.
