The crypto market, after a long period of adjustment, has once again shown a key signal repeatedly validated by historical data. Data from on-chain analysis platform CryptoQuant indicates that Bitcoin's long-term holder SOPR (Spent Output Profit Ratio) has fallen below the critical threshold of 1. This means that those "diamond hands" who are least sensitive to short-term fluctuations are selling their Bitcoin at a loss. This phenomenon is widely interpreted by the market as a "surrender" behavior, usually signaling that the momentum of large-scale selling is waning, and the market may be approaching or already at a bottom zone.

Long-term holders (typically addresses holding Bitcoin for over 155 days) are the most steadfast group in the market. They react far less to short-term price fluctuations, news events, and macro sentiment.
