Glassnode has highlighted how the latest Bitcoin crash triggered a $1.35 billion capitulation event, with long-term holders contributing the majority.
Bitcoin Realized Loss Has Witnessed A Spike Recently
In its latest weekly report, on-chain analytics firm Glassnode has discussed about the loss-taking panic that has accompanied the latest drawdown in the Bitcoin price. The indicator of relevance here is the Realized Loss, which measures, as its name suggests, the total amount of loss that BTC investors are realizing through their transactions every day.
Below is the chart shared by Glassnode that shows the trend in this metric for Bitcoin over the past year.
From the graph, it’s visible that the Bitcoin Realized Loss has witnessed a sharp surge alongside the BTC price crash, indicating that investors have panic-exited the market at loss.
This isn’t anything unusual as capitulation tends to be a feature whenever the price goes down with a steep move; it’s apparent in the chart that the Realized Loss also spiked during the November and February crashes.
Compared to these two previous capitulation events, however, there are a couple of differences. The first and obvious one is the scale involved: the last two events saw loss-taking of a significantly higher level. This is naturally down to the fact that they involved price drawdowns of a larger degree.
The other difference is in the holder distribution. The last two capitulation events were dominated by short-term holders (STHs), investors who purchased their coins within the past 155 days.
These new market entrants also contributed to the latest event, but they didn’t account for the majority of the loss realization. Instead, long-term holders (LTHs) were the Bitcoin cohort driving the capitulation this time. These were the investors who bought prior to January 2026, at the highs of the 2025 bull market.
In total, the latest Realized Loss spike saw the indicator hit a value of $1.35 billion per day. Out of this, LTHs were responsible for $770 million of the daily loss-taking.
The analytics firm explained:
As the bear market matures, this pattern of long-term holder capitulation passing supply into new hands at lower prices is a recurring and necessary feature of cycle bottoming processes, though the current pace of loss realization suggests that process remains incomplete.
Another metric discussed by Glassnode in the report is the amount of liquidations in the futures market. The price plunge naturally caught out a large number of derivatives market traders, leading to a significant amount of long liquidations.
“Historically, large-scale long liquidations have coincided with local exhaustion points, as forced selling pressure cascades through derivatives markets and clears out weaker hands,” noted the analytics firm.
BTC Price
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is floating around $65,500, down over 12% in the last seven days.

Bitcoin Under Pressure: Is More Pain Ahead for Crypto?
$BTC The crypto market is facing another challenging period as Bitcoin continues to show significant weakness. While many investors were hoping for a strong recovery, the recent price action suggests that uncertainty still dominates the market.
What stands out right now is that Bitcoin is showing even more downside pressure than many altcoins. This is a signal that traders should remain cautious and avoid making emotional decisions based on short-term market movements.
My long-term outlook remains unchanged despite the ongoing volatility and liquidation events. Market corrections are a normal part of every cycle, but certain price levels deserve close attention.
If Bitcoin falls below the $64,000 level and Ethereum drops under $1,700, the market could experience a powerful wave of panic selling. Such a move may increase fear among investors and trigger additional selling pressure across the crypto space.
For futures traders, risk management is more important than ever. Using proper stop-loss levels, controlling leverage, and protecting capital should be the top priority during periods of uncertainty.
The market is at a critical point, and the next major move could set the tone for the coming weeks. Until clearer signals appear, patience and discipline remain the most#BitcoinFearGaugeSurgesNearly20%
