- BTC can gather up to $ 162k based on linear extrapolation
In the past month, Bitcoin [BTC] has gathered to get a new of all time in the charts. With the Cryptocurrency that stings to a new high, holders of short term are torn. Simply put, short -term holders have seen their profit margins rise across the board.

The increase in profitability for holders in the short term had analysts speculated on the potential impact on the BTC price action. According to Cryptoquant Analyst Axel Adler, The non-realized profit indicator for the press for short-term holders, in particular those who hold coins for 1-3 months, was 27%.
This implied that holders have achieved considerable profit in the short term in the last 3 months and possibly close their participations.
STHs are currently still to start selling. In fact, the realized profit for this cohort was at the time of around 4.6k BTC. Historically, an increase in non-realized profit for short-term holders was followed by market distribution.

For example – in the last 4 years, when this indicator rose to surpass 40%, these holders began to sell, which resulted in a higher sales pressure. A higher sales pressure of short -term holders often leads to a market correction.
That is why Bitcoin, according to Adler’s observation, can be on its way to reach the 40% threshold in 16 days. This is because the metriek has risen by 0.818% points daily. If the trend continues with the same growth rate, the market could reach a critical decision point around 11 June 2025. BTC could trade around $ 162k based on linear exploration.
Worth to point out that the analyst also noted that trend exploration does not take into account the random tweets of Trump or Black Swans.
Therefore, if macro -economic activities remain constant or continue to influence BTC, the market will be at the top at the beginning of June.
What is the next step for Bitcoin?
Although the short -term holders of Bitcoin have achieved considerable profit, they still have to enter into the distribution phase.
To begin with, the win of STH MVRV was around 1.14 at the time of the press. Historically, this metric must rise above 1.2. A value above 1.2 usually precedes the distribution phase. At the moment there is even more room for growth before the market sees enormous sales of STHS.

Simply put, Bitcoin short -term holders have not sold because they experience the prevailing market conditions because they do not encourage enough to leave. STHs are therefore still holding their assets and expect more profit.
Therefore, until STHs begin to distribute, we could see Bitcoin recover from the recent pullback and continue with the rally. In the short term, BTC could recover and collect up to $ 115k, where the market will strengthen to pick up a new leg.
However, if the linear extrapolation applies as Adler’s projection, the Cyclustop appears around $ 162k as other factors.
