Josh O"Sullivan13 hours agoBitcoin will crash to $50K, 10x Research warnsAccording to 10x Research, Bitcoin’s potential drop below $50,000 is linked to dwindling buy flows and accelerating sell flows.15400 Total views13 Total sharesListen to article 0:00NewsOwn this piece of crypto historyCollect this article as NFTJoin us on social networksAccording to experts at 10x Research, Bitcoin is poised to fall below $57,000 from over $60,000 on July 4. They suggest that this sharp decline may just be beginning, potentially dropping further to $50,000.
Breaking the psychological $60,000 benchmark toward $50,000 marks a significant shift in market sentiment, which 10x Research attributes to buy flows drying up “while sell flows are accelerating.”
Markus Thielen, an analyst at 10x Research, suggests that the downward spiral was foreseeable, stating:“Our data from early June already hinted at an overbought market ripe for correction.”

The sudden 5.44% fall in the Bitcoin (BTC) price has substantially impacted investor sentiment and market liquidity, reflected in BTC’s $1.1 billion market capitalization and 57% increase in trading volume.
By breaking the “key level for Bitcoin miners and spot Bitcoin ETF buyers,” the 10x Research report foresaw that the price decline “could accelerate as support gets broken and sellers scramble to find liquidity.”
The sell-off coincides with the anticipated Mt. Gox repayments of $8.5 billion worth of BTC, which were set to begin in July.

On July 3, the spent output profit ratio (SOPR) from long-term holders exceeded a value of 10, indicating that the BTC was sold for at least 10 times the initial purchase price.
According to the analysis, long-term BTC holders, who typically retain their holdings for roughly five to seven years, have contributed to the selling pressure in the market.
