Blockonomi reports an analyst’s view that 
Bitcoin may be approaching a zone where forced selling begins to recede and a recovery could take shape, even while sentiment remains fearful. The analyst, identified as Sarosh, says the departure of forced sellers can open space for buyers to respond. Automatic closures of leveraged futures positions can create liquidation cascades, accelerating losses as positions are unwound.
The analyst compares Bitcoin’s current position with previous periods of severe weakness. According to Blockonomi, Bitcoin previously fell 85%, 84%, and 78% into past lows before recovering, while the decline from its 2025 peak stands at about 53%. This comparison frames the present downturn as substantial but still less severe than the cited historical episodes.
Live market data show Bitcoin at $66,895, down 3.21% over 24 hours and 11.87% over seven days. Its market capitalization is $1.35 trillion, while the total crypto market capitalization stands at $2.33T and is broadly lower. The Fear & Greed Index is at 13, placing the market in extreme-fear territory.
The analyst’s framework makes two conditions central to what comes next: whether leveraged positions continue to be forcibly closed and whether buyers respond more firmly as forced sellers retreat. Neither condition establishes a recovery by itself, but they provide a measurable lens for interpreting liquidation activity, market sentiment, and demand as Bitcoin remains below its 2025 peak.
