Bitcoin (BTC) faces short-term pressure, yet large holders are quietly accumulating, signaling potential stabilization. Analysts note that the BTC/GOLD ratio and historical RSI trends suggest the current bear cycle may be approaching its final phase, hinting at a slowdown before Bitcoin finds key support and prepares for a possible recovery.
At present, Bitcoin is trading at $87,730 today, showing a 1.47% decrease in the last 24 hours. The 24-hour trading volume of the cryptocurrency reached $60.65 billion, and its market capitalization is $1.75 trillion, accounting for a 59.56% market share of the total cryptocurrency market.
Despite the recent decline, large holders of Bitcoin are quietly accumulating more. According to Crypto Patel’s post, addresses containing more than 1,000 BTC have collectively accumulated 104,000 BTC, while transactions above $1 million have reached a two-month high. This indicates that large investors are gearing up for the next possible rally.

On the other hand, the BTC/GOLD ratio provides a fascinating insight into the current situation of Bitcoin. Despite the selling pressure that has been acting on the BTC since its all-time high in October 2025, the ratio reveals that this selling pressure started much earlier.
A technical “lower high” was reached in August 2025, indicating a cycle pattern akin to the double top of 2021. Analysts have identified the 1-month RSI of the BTC/GOLD ratio as an important indicator. Historically, the trend of lower lows in the RSI has forecasted bottoms of cycles since 2015.
Current trends indicate that Bitcoin may be entering the second and final phase of the bear cycle. Although the bottom may not be imminent, historical trends indicate a slowing before reaching important support levels. If the trend holds, the current cycle may see a bottom at the 1M MA150 trend line, indicating that BTC may be nearer to stabilization than thought.
Investors and enthusiasts are following these developments closely, as the actions of the large holders and the BTC/GOLD ratio may offer key insights into Bitcoin’s immediate outlook.
