Bitcoin Price Drops Below $93K: Is It Time to Sell Bitcoin or Buy Bitcoin?

Published by

Last week Bitcoin hit a record high of $99,600, but now it has dropped back to below $93K. After a big 40% rise over the last three weeks, fueled by Trump’s election win, everyone is wondering what will happen next. Is it time to sell Bitcoin and take profits, or should you buy Bitcoin while the price is lower?

Selling Pressure: Time to Sell Bitcoin

Recent data from market analysis firm Glassnode shows that long-term holders (LTHs) are selling more Bitcoin than ever before. In fact, their selling pressure has hit 366,000 BTC per month, the highest level since April 2024.

The 6 to 12-month holders, in particular, are leading the charge, offloading an average of 25,600 BTC every day. These investors bought their Bitcoin when the price was much lower than today’s $93,637, meaning they’re now sitting on hefty profits.

As Bitcoin nears $100,000, it’s no surprise that many are choosing to cash out while the price is high.

Could Bitcoin Face a 25% Dip Soon?

Meanwhile, some experts believe Bitcoin could fall further. Bitcoin’s recent price rise mirrors previous market cycles in 2013, 2017, and 2020/2021, where the price surged before dramatically dropping

Analyst Rekt Capital warns that Bitcoin could drop by as much as 25% in the next 2 to 4 weeks, possibly bringing the price down to $70,500—levels not seen since election day. While this could be a short-term dip, many are still hopeful about Bitcoin’s long-term potential.

Time To Buy The Dip?

Even with the current price drop, there’s still hope for Bitcoin in the future. The “Trump trade” is a bet that his presidency will be good for crypto. Trump has promised to create a more crypto-friendly environment in the U.S. 

He’s also expected to support Bitcoin mining and even set up a Bitcoin reserve for the U.S.

Senator Cynthia Lummis has also suggested that the U.S. should buy 1 million Bitcoins over the next five years. This could push Bitcoin’s price even higher, possibly breaking the $100,000 mark.

Spot Bitcoin ETF Key Role

And let’s not forget the powerful impact of spot Bitcoin ETFs they’ve been a major driver behind Bitcoin’s explosive gains this year.  So while the price of Bitcoin may be dipping right now, the long-term outlook is still bright.

FAQs

Should I buy Bitcoin during a price dip?

Despite short-term dips, Bitcoin’s long-term prospects remain strong due to factors like Trump’s crypto stance and Bitcoin ETFs.

Why did the crypto market drop today?

The market decline is attributed to upcoming Bitcoin and Ethereum option expiries, widespread liquidations, and institutional sentiment reflected in ETF outflows.
