Nearly 25% of all Bitcoin is now underwater

As of the time of writing, nearly 5 million Bitcoins ( BTC ) are being held at a loss, representing almost a quarter of total supply. Data retrieved by Finbold from market intelligence platform CryptoQuant on April 8 reveals that 24.8% of the digital asset’s supply is currently in the red.

Accordingly, the 4,922,580 Bitcoins being held at a loss are currently worth roughly $388.95 billion — although with the significant volatility currently present in the cryptocurrency market , the figure will fluctuate, perhaps significantly so. A rebound back to $90,000 would severely diminish the supply held at a loss. At press time on April 8, the leading cryptocurrency was trading at a price of $79,015, with year-to-date (YTD) losses standing at 15.50%. BTC price year-to-date (YTD) chart.

Although the figures might seem like a very bearish portent at first glance, a closer look at the charts provided above reveals that the share of Bitcoins being held at a loss has not surpassed a September 2024 peak. That September peak was followed by a strong rally, so the present state of affairs in no way invalidates BTC’s long-term prospects. Moreover, the fact that such a large percentage of supply is in the red ever since the asset crashed below $80,000 indicates that strong levels of demand exist at sub-$80,000 prices, which could serve to staunch further losses in the short-term. So, is this actually bullish? No — but it’s far from alarming. BTC has lost $1 trillion in market capitalization since the initial tariff announcements. It’s clear that the asset’s near-term price action will be determined chiefly by market-wide factors and macro outlooks. However, insights like these — and the fact that institutional investors seem to have intensified their acquisitions as of late, point to a more robust posture than what many initially anticipated.
