Undercurrents

Smart money accumulating

Price is soft (-32% below ATH), but smart money is accumulating beneath it — long-term holders net-flat (+188,795 net over 30d), coins leaving exchanges (+2,142 BTC/day net withdrawal), model on-chain net +0.20. Coins are moving to strong hands: the transfer that clusters near cycle lows. It doesn't call the low, and it's not the model's buy signal yet — it's the footprint that tends to precede one.

Capitulation losing steam

Loss realization is easing — SOPR is climbing back toward 1.0 (0.999, from 0.996 30d ago). Sellers are running out, though it hasn't fully healed above 1.0 yet.

Bottom line

The full model composite is -0.17 → WAIT IN STABLES (EARLY RECOVERY, 70% confidence) — its structural signals (valuation, regime, mining, macro) lean defensive. But of the three near-term confirmation lenses shown here (a subset of the model), 2 read constructive and 1 cautionary: the near-term picture is also firming. Deep value, but the model has not yet called the turn.
