Crypto Daily Digest: AI Agent concept tokens fell across the board, BTC, ETH and SOL faced the loss of key support levels

The U.S. stock market was closed yesterday, and there was no inflow or outflow of funds in the BTC ETF and ETH ETF.

Analyst: Market concerns about possible DOJ sell-off of Bitcoin are overblown

Earlier, DB News reported that the U.S. Department of Justice had been approved to liquidate 69,370 BTC (worth about $6.5 billion) seized in the Silk Road case. Coindesk analyst James Van Straten said that market concerns about the sell-off may be exaggerated, and listed the following reasons:

The reports of 69,370 Bitcoins being liquidated seem like a lot, and if they were actually sold, they would likely be sold in an orderly fashion to get the best price. At the same time, the market has long known that this could happen, so the possibility may have been priced in.

Secondly, the market has absorbed more than 1 million Bitcoins since September. This can be seen by the decrease in the holdings of long-term holders, which Glassnode defines as investors who have held Bitcoin for more than 155 days. As a group, they now hold 13.1 million Bitcoins. However, since September, the price has risen from about $60,000 to more than $100,000.

The final reason is that we have historical data on another government selling a similar amount of Bitcoin. The German government sold about 50,000 Bitcoins between mid-June and mid-July 2023. The total value of these Bitcoins was about $3.5 billion at the time, and they are now worth about half that. However, the market actually reacted to the sell-off in advance, and the price bottomed out around July 7 at about $55,000, and the German government still held at least 25,000 Bitcoins. This shows that the number of Bitcoins does not dominate the market.

Viewpoint: BTC, ETH and SOL faced the loss of key support levels, and the market begins to panic

Trader Eugene Ng Ah Sio posted on social media: “This is when most people start to panic for the following reasons:

-BTC, ETH, and SOL are retesting their range lows from December 5th, with the market beginning to accept that these support levels may not hold.

-The next support level for BTC is at $85,000, which is very far away.

-People’s psychological dependence on the “January Bull Market” began to weaken, and most people realized that the assets they had not sold had gone through a complete cycle of ups and downs, and began to suffer losses. As a result, they found that they not only completely gave up their profits, but also found that they were no longer so fond of the currencies they held when the market fell sharply. “
