Bitcoin UTXO Signal Points to Bear Market Bottom

Analysis of Bitcoin unspent transaction outputs (UTXOs) shows investors are capitulating, a pattern that has historically coincided with bear market bottoms. The ratio of the number of UTXOs spent in profit versus at a loss has fallen to its lowest level this bear market cycle, CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost said.

This is the first time this signal has triggered since the start of the correction, demonstrating that the number of UTXOs spent at a loss is reaching significant levels and reflecting the start of a broader capitulation. Darkfost noted the metric indicates markets are entering a bottoming phase, which could be a strategic time to accumulate.

The last time it fell this low was in mid-2023, when BTC prices fell to around $26,000. 'These periods have always been profitable for long-term investors,' he continued. 'They correspond to the moment when the majority gives up and loses interest.' He cautioned that it is a process that takes time, and we are on a long timeframe.
