Bitcoin\u2019s bearish structure<\/a> over the past few weeks has raised clear concerns about the flagship cryptocurrency\u2019s future. Amid these concerns are speculations concerning its trajectory, some of which point to bottoms as low as $25,000. However, an on-chain analyst recently took to the social media platform X to explain why Bitcoin\u2019s fall to $25,000 is an unlikely scenario in its current cycle.<\/p>\n

Electrical Cost Model Points To Potential Bitcoin Bottom<\/h2>\n

In a June 6 post on X, crypto analyst Ted Pillows implied<\/a> that the Bitcoin price might see further declines before a definitive bear market bottom is established. This conjecture is based on the Bitcoin Electrical Cost model.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For context, the model estimates Bitcoin\u2019s fundamental production costs by measuring the electricity required to mine new BTC. Because mining operations tend to consume substantial amounts of energy, the metric is often used as a proxy for Bitcoin\u2019s inherent value. This is because it represents the minimum price at which miners can sustainably operate over the long term.<\/p>\n

In line with historical data, Pillows explained that Bitcoin bear markets have never fallen below this Electrical Cost, despite the severe drawdowns seen during these periods. On the contrary, bear markets have often found bottoms near this crucial price level.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pillows pointed out that Bitcoin\u2019s current Electrical Cost sits at approximately $48,694 \u2014 a threshold still somewhat far from Bitcoin\u2019s current market price. According to the analyst, this suggests that the BTC price could find support<\/a> near $50,000 if the current downturn continues.<\/p>\n

However, Pillows highlighted a caveat in this analysis, stating that it would take an extraordinary global event for this support zone to be broken. In the event that the world is hit by a recession or a pandemic as severe as COVID, the Bitcoin price could temporarily fall below its estimated production cost due to panic-driven sales.<\/p>\n

Silent BTC Accumulation On Binance Underway As Outflows Steadily Climb<\/h2>\n

In a Quicktake post on CryptoQuant, analyst CryptoOnchain highlighted<\/a> an interesting contradiction ongoing within the Bitcoin market. According to the on-chain analyst, BTC accumulation events have been underway on Binance.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The analyst noted that technical indicators \u2014 notably, the RSI (14) and the EMA50\/200 \u2014 are telling a clearly bearish story. RSI readings, for example, have fallen to extreme levels near 6.4, and the EMA50\/200 currently displays a \u201cDeath Cross\u201d pattern.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At the same time, Binance\u2019s Exchange Netflows reads as negative (-0.58\u03c3), indicating that Bitcoin is leaving Binance consistently\u2014an event that further suggests its holders are accumulating BTC rather than simply panic-selling. But then CryptoOnchain explained that the unignorable threat of a long squeeze still looms, given the high Open Interest.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As of this writing, the price of BTC stands at around $602,388, reflecting an almost 3% jump in the past 24 hours.\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
