In the past few hours, Bitcoin has dropped below $80,000 amid another wave of liquidations as January comes to a rather volatile close. Analysts at Kobeissi<\/a> note there have been three notable liquidation events in the past 12 hours, resulting in a combined loss of $1.3 billion.<\/p>\n

Such developments, coupled with a very fearful market after last week\u2019s price slump, have pushed Bitcoin below a key price level. According to the renowned market expert Burak Kesmeci, Bitcoin\u2019s behavior towards this $80,000 price zone holds significant consequences for the market trajectory.\n<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Slips Under ETF Realized Price As Downside Risk Grows<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In a recent X post<\/a>, Burak Kesmeci outlines the technical and on-chain importance of the $80,000 price level to the Bitcoin market. Before Bitcoin\u2019s recent breakdown below $80,000, the asset had twice retested this zone following the correction phase that began in early October 2025.<\/p>\n

Each successful rebound from these retests reinforced $80,000 as a critical support level, with certain chart formations even hinting at potential trend reversal. This underscored the market\u2019s technical sensitivity to this level before the recent loss.\u00a0However, Kesmeci highlights an on-chain importance of the $80,000 price point in that it also functions as the cost basis of the Bitcoin Spot ETFs. Therefore, the recent price fall below $80,000 places a large cohort of institutional investors at risk of entering unrealized losses.<\/p>\n

In January 2026 alone, the Bitcoin ETFs already witnessed massive levels of withdrawals, resulting in a total net outflow of $1.61 billion. However, these figures are likely to surge higher as sustained price decline below the ETF cost basis is expected to trigger a wide-scale, panic-driven redemption among investors.\u00a0 In addition to its on-chain and technical importance, Kesmeci also notes that $80,000 presently functions as the True Market Mean.<\/p>\n

What Next For Bitcoin?\u00a0<\/h2>\n

According to Burak Kesmeci, a bearish scenario would require a weekly close below the $80,000 support level. If confirmed, the analyst warns that bearish momentum could intensify, potentially driving Bitcoin lower toward $72,000, $68,000, and eventually $62,000 in sequence.\u00a0This is because these levels align with notable volume profile clusters, representing potential areas where liquidity could accumulate, and the price may temporarily stabilize.<\/p>\n

Conversely, in a bullish scenario, Kesmeci notes that a sustained rebound from current levels could shift momentum back in favor of the bulls. The first major upside hurdle lies at $90,000, followed by the 111-period Simple Moving Average (SMA111) near $95,000, which is described as a critical level for confirming a medium-term trend reversal.<\/p>\n

A decisive break above the psychological $100,000 resistance would further strengthen the bullish case and signal a potential resumption of the broader uptrend. At press time, Bitcoin trades at $77,832, reflecting a 7.1% loss in the past day.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
