CryptoQuant analyst, Greatest_Trader, <\/span>revealed<\/span><\/a> that there was possible selling pressure from <\/span>Bitcoin’s [BTC]<\/span> long-term investors. This opinion may not be surprising, especially as BTC led its investors into losses after falling from $22,000 on 13 September. <\/span><\/p>\n

Since then, the king coin has failed to recover and has been trading below $20,000 for the past few days.<\/span><\/p>\n

HODLing is now a herculean task<\/strong><\/h3>\n

According to the analyst, the current market direction was responsible for this take. He pointed out that several long-term holders recently sent a sizable number of their holdings into exchanges.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This unusual move signaled massive selling pressure at the holders’ end. A look at the exchange inflow CDD <\/span>showed<\/span><\/a> that the analyst raised some valid points. <\/span><\/p>\n

As of 18 September, the exchange inflow CDD was 97,770.62, according to CryptoQuant. At press time, it had increased remarkably to 1,495,425.57, indicating that long-term investors may run out of patience.<\/span><\/p>\n

While referring to the decrease in the fourteen-day moving average, he added that the selling pressure, if sustained, could lead BTC to $16,000.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not lonely in the fray<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Additionally, it may seem that the <\/span>earlier<\/span><\/a> talks about Bitcoin getting stronger may already be in the drain. This was because the analyst mentioned above was not the only one who shared the opinion about a possible price fall.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another CryptoQuant analyst, BaroVirtual, <\/span>noted<\/span><\/a> that recent institutional investors’ inactiveness might also send BTC further down. <\/span>Citing the state of fund market volume of <\/span>Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC)<\/span>, BaroVirtual said that the decrease might mean BTC could not increase parabolically.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

While <\/span>assessing<\/span><\/a> the GBTC fund market volume, CryptoQuant data showed that there was no signal for improvement. The last time there was a significant increase was on 23 June, when the volume went up to 31,277,925.39. Since then, it had followed some stagnancy and a decline till it was 4,125,627 at the time of writing.<\/span><\/p>\n

But was there any sign that BTC could at least rise above this stalemate?<\/span><\/p>\n

The opinion of Nicholas Merten did not agree. The experienced analyst and founder of crypto YouTube channel, DataDash, predicted that BTC was heading lower than the forecast of Greatest_Trader. In fact, Merten predicted a price plunge to $14,000.<\/span><\/p>\n

In his <\/span>video<\/span><\/a> uploaded on 19 September, Merten cited the 200-Week Moving Average (WMA) position. According to him, the indicators revealed more resistance than support, highlighting that it was a similar scenario that led to the capitulation in June.<\/span><\/p>\n

At press time, BTC was trading at $19,327\u2014 a 2.72% increase from the last 24 hours. Despite the uptick, expecting a rally from the current point could be unlikely.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
