$BTC

is at a critical crossroads. Bitcoin continues to stall below the $99K mark, with the Short-Term Holder (STH) realized price sitting around $99,412 — a level that has flipped from support into heavy resistance.
This is a red flag for bulls. Historically, when BTC fails to reclaim the STH cost basis, upside momentum weakens quickly. Short-term holders remain underwater, selling pressure builds, and rallies tend to fade. At the moment, $99K isn’t a floor — it’s a ceiling.
Unless Bitcoin can decisively reclaim and hold above this zone, the recent move higher looks more like a bear-market bounce than the start of a sustainable bull leg. Bulls are running out of time to show real strength.
The next move is crucial: a clean reclaim could ignite continuation, while another rejection may trigger a sharp pullback. All eyes on $99K — it may decide the trend.
