The 24-hour range stretched from $112,209 to $115,759, with a market cap of $2.37Tn and volume close to $60Bn. <\/span><\/p>\n Intraday moves included a sharp drop toward $112,000 before slightly recovering above $113,000 during Asian trading. On a weekly view, Bitcoin is modestly lower by around 1-2%.<\/span><\/p>\n The sell-off followed a spike in funding rates after last week\u2019s Federal Reserve cut, which left the market crowded with leveraged longs. \u201cThe slump is primarily attributed to\u2026 excess leverage\u2026 leading to cascading liquidations,\u201d Barron\u2019s <\/span>reported<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n CoinGlass <\/span>data<\/span> showed about $3.3M in net inflows over 24 hours, suggesting more coins moved onto exchanges than left them, though the size is not large enough to set direction on its own.<\/span><\/p>\n\n (<\/span>Source: Coinglass<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n Despite the shake-out, open interest remains high relative to historical levels, keeping the door open for further volatility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Near-term sentiment leans cautious with price capped below the $115k-$118k resistance band and coming off a $3,000 intraday swing. The broader structure, however, remains range-bound rather than firmly bearish.<\/span><\/p>\n Bitcoin reserves on exchanges have slipped again, with CryptoQuant <\/span>data<\/span><\/a> showing about 2.43M BTC currently held and a -0.47% decline in recent days.<\/span><\/p>\n\n (<\/span>Source: CryptoQuant<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n The drop extends a broader year-long trend of shrinking spot supply, often linked to reduced short-term selling pressure.<\/span><\/p>\n At the same time, two of the largest corporate holders added to their positions. Michael Saylor\u2019s Strategy <\/span>disclosed<\/span><\/a> the purchase of 850 BTC for $99.7M at an average price of $117,344.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Strategy has acquired 850 BTC for ~$99.7 million at ~$117,344 per bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 26.0% YTD 2025.

The company now holds 25,555 BTC in total, with an average purchase price of $106,065.<\/span><\/p>\n The combined 6,269 BTC purchase proves institutional buying has not wilted despite the fear and uncertainty clouding the market sentiment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Both Strategy and Metaplanet remain on the list of leading corporate supporters of Bitcoin.<\/span><\/p>\n EXPLORE:\u00a0Best New Cryptocurrencies to Invest in 2025<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n According to analysis <\/span>shared<\/span> by trader Broke Doomer, Bitcoin\u2019s weekly chart signals a possible liquidity sweep.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Dont get trapped just following influencers who are always GIGA Bullish <\/p>\n Look at the other side, too.$BTC<\/a> liquidity sweeps in pending, and i am not saying this is going to happen today or yesterday but very soon.<\/p>\n DYOR, major wyck coming. pic.twitter.com\/ShY0CoHY1z<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Broke Doomer (@im_BrokeDoomer) September 22, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n\n The chart shows that the price action trendline has been on a prolonged rising trend over the past several months. The market is almost $113,000, having hit a snag at the resistance of about $120,000.<\/span><\/p>\n Technical patterns indicate that the pullback could be the next trend to trendline and a short descent below the support level, followed by a recovery.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This arrangement is similar to the Wyckoff pattern of the reaccumulation phase, where the positioning tends to be reestablished by seizing liquidity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Doomer cautioned traders against taking overly optimistic stories and neglecting risks to the downside.<\/span><\/p>\n Despite the broader uptrend still intact, the chart points to possible short-term volatility. Key support zones remain under watch.<\/span><\/p>\n At the same time, Bitcoin began the new week with another sharp drop, repeating the pattern of weakness in the early weeks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The most recent drop is a shaky one, with lower highs being formed over the past weeks. This implies that buyer strength is fading away.<\/span><\/p>\n Analyst TedPillows <\/span>noted<\/span><\/a> that each Monday, peak sets up liquidity sweeps, leading to accelerated drops by Tuesday.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n $BTC<\/a> started this week with a dump again.<\/p>\n Usually Bitcoin bottoms the next day, but this time it’s looking weak, as I have said before.<\/p>\n All eyes are on equities now; if they show any weakness, the dump will continue. pic.twitter.com\/G3yUlA5Tdf<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Ted (@TedPillows) September 22, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n\n He added that equities may hold the key: further weakness in traditional markets could deepen Bitcoin\u2019s decline.<\/span><\/p>\n With $113,000 under pressure, sentiment has turned cautious. The usual post-dump rebound that often follows these moves looks less certain. For now, bearish momentum appears to be in control.<\/span><\/p>\n Read More:\u00a0<\/strong>Eric Trump Attends Metaplanet Shareholder Meeting: Japanese Company Brings BTC Holdings To 20,000\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n The post Bitcoin Price Prediction: Will Mass Liquidation Clean Slate Trigger Recovery?<\/a> appeared first on 99Bitcoins<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In the latest Bitcoin price prediction, the dust settles over a mass liquidation event, and as traders assess a clean slate, is recovery on its way for BTC USD price?
