Analyst: Market Digesting Fear, On-Chain Metrics Show Bitcoin Has Bottomed Structure Expectation

2 hours ago

June 6th — On-chain analyst Murphy shared in a post that Bitcoin (BTC) dipped below the $60,000 threshold yesterday, though the market’s losses aren’t aligning with sentiment indicators. Currently, the 3-day moving average of adjusted on-chain realized loss (EARL) stands at $1.13 billion, nearly half of its value on February 5. While he stops short of ruling out further downside for BTC, the fact that EARL isn’t rising even at lower price levels is a classic signal of “bottoming expectations.” To clarify: EARL reflects the broader market’s level of fear, while STH-RUL (Short-Term Holder Relative Unrealized Loss) measures the psychological pressure facing new investors. During the early stages of a bear market downtrend, short-term holders typically face extreme psychological strain, pushing STH-RUL above +5 standard deviations — a level that often correlates with a systemic crisis. Later, even if prices continue falling, STH-RUL rarely hits its prior peak; this is because chips have already turned over at high loss ranges, new buyers have lower cost bases, and market pressure is being absorbed. Murphy notes that both EARL and STH-RUL are sending consistent signals right now: market panic is being digested, not spreading. It’s important to point out that price hitting new lows while loss indicators don’t isn’t a guarantee of a bottom, but this pattern has almost always defined true bottoms in historical cycles. Bottoming is a process of repeated pressure and absorption until chips complete turnover amid panic, new buyers enter with low enough costs, and the price finally loses the momentum to keep dropping.

The crypto market experiences a widespread crash, with the funding rate indicating overall bearish sentiment. ETH displays a more severe bearish sentiment compared to BTC.

June 6, per HTX market data, Bitcoin is currently trading at $59,769.84, marking a 5.20% 24-hour decline that pushed it below the $60,000 threshold. Ethereum stands at $1,524.44, down 11.87% over the same period. Data from leading centralized exchanges (CEX) shows both BTC and ETH have firmly entered bearish territory, with Ethereum’s negative funding rate depth expanding far more sharply than Bitcoin’s. On the BTC side, funding rates across all platforms are below 0.005%, signaling a broad bearish trend and near-total absence of bullish momentum. For ETH, bearish signals are even more prominent: funding rates on every platform have turned negative, meaning short positions are paying substantial fees to long holders—clear proof of stronger bearish sentiment compared to Bitcoin.
