Bitcoin price drop to $114K possible as BTC whales take profits
2025-07-15 09:04:26
Main Idea
Bitcoin's price may drop to $114K due to profit-taking by whales and potential filling of a CME futures gap, though the overall bull market trend remains intact.
Key Points
1. Bitcoin's price dropped 5% to $116,850, rejecting the $120,000 level, with potential further downside if it closes below the 20-period SMA.
2. Whale activity on Binance increased, with 1,800 BTC deposited, indicating sell-side pressure and risk of sharp price swings.
3. Long-term holder profit-taking and 98% of supply in profit suggest a possible significant price correction.
4. A CME futures gap between $114,380 and $115,630 may be filled, potentially driving BTC price down to $114,400.
5. Analysts note the bull market remains intact if Bitcoin stays above $108,000, with deeper corrections possible but not indicative of a trend reversal.
Description
Bitcoin is at risk of a deeper correction to fill the CME futures gap down to $114,000, fueled by profit-taking by whales.
