Dogecoin (DOGE) Bounces Off Lows, But $0.180 Cap Remains A Challenge

As Bitcoin (BTC) continues to trade within striking distance of its all-time 
high (ATH), a noticeable shift is underway in the cryptocurrency’s Realized 
Dominance metric, reflecting changes in behavior between short-term holders 
(STH) and long-term holders (LTH). Bitcoin Realized Dominance Shows Shift In 
Market Sentiment According to a recent CryptoQuant Quicktake post by 
contributor Crazzyblockk, the latest trend in BTC&#8217;s Realized Dominance metric 
highlights a significant shift in overall market structure and sentiment.

For the uninitiated, the Bitcoin Realized Dominance metric tracks how much of 
the realized cap is held by STH vs LTH. A rising LTH cohort share signals 
strong conviction and maturing supply, while a falling STH share suggests 
reduced speculation or loss-taking. The latest on-chain data shows that STH 
Realized Cap has dropped to around 45%, signalling reduced activity from 
recent buyers. This implies that new BTC entering the market is either being 
sold at a loss or maturing into long-term holdings &#8211; easing short-term 
speculative pressure. Conversely, the LTH Realized Cap has risen, suggesting 
long-held coins are being moved at a profit &#8211; typically seen during late-stage 
bull markets. This increase also indicates aging supply, as coins held by 
short-term investors transition into the LTH category, reflecting strong 
holder conviction. The analyst added: The divergence between falling STH 
Realized Cap and rising LTH Realized Cap highlights a supply transfer dynamic: 
recent entrants struggle with profitability amid lackluster price action, 
while long-term participants maintain control of an increasing share of 
network value. Such transitions often precede bullish reversals. As short-term 
realized cap shrinks, selling pressure typically declines, paving the way for 
more sustainable upside, provided fresh demand returns. In conclusion, 
Crazzyblockk noted that the Bitcoin market is currently in a consolidation 
phase, with weaker hands exiting and stronger holders gaining dominance. If 
this trend continues, it could establish a more resilient price base for BTC 
and potentially pave the way for a new ATH. BTC Apparent Demand Has Declined 
Despite the rise in LTH Realized Dominance, some on-chain signals point to 
weakening demand. This has raised concerns of a potential short-term drawdown, 
which could be as severe as the April 2025 pullback to almost $75,000. Related

Interest Notably, Bitcoin&#8217;s Apparent Demand &#8211; a metric that assesses whether 
new buyer demand is sufficient to offset selling from miners and LTHs &#8211; has 
dropped to -37,000 BTC. This sharp decline suggests fading buying interest. 
That said, one positive indicator remains. The STH floor price has been 
steadily rising over the past few months and is now nearing the 
psychologically important $100,000 level. At press time, BTC trades at 
$107,796, up 1.2% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Unsplash, charts
