Famous trader Killa posted that Bitcoin is continuing to decline, and the key now is whether it can maintain the current range and stay above $60,000. He believes that if BTC can still fluctuate above $60,000, a temporary low may form near the current price area.On the other hand, if BTC breaks below $60,000 and loses the current range, the possibility of further declines for the remainder of August will significantly increase. If it drops below $60,000 from the current position, it may further decline to below $57,000. Conversely, if BTC can maintain its structure and regain a foothold above $61,000 to $62,000, he expects Bitcoin may rebound back into the range for the remainder of August.

Renowned trader Killa posted that during the last bull market, Bitcoin began to recover from its lows before the ETF rumors and official approvals, emphasizing that the market often reflects positive news in advance.Therefore, this round may be similar; the current "Clarity Act" is forming a new narrative. "If it indeed becomes a catalyst, it is likely to mark the beginning of the first meaningful upward phase for BTC after the first bear market recovery, and the approval itself will soon push BTC towards a new ATH (just like the ETF approval)."Killa, a quantitative trader focused on BTC, predicted the peak of this bull market in May 2025 and has over 200,000 followers on the X platform. In mid-April, he shorted Bitcoin at $74,688 and turned bullish during the market-wide decline on June 5.

According to CoinDesk, data from Blockware Intelligence shows that publicly listed Bitcoin miners held a total of 127,000 BTC at the beginning of the year, which has now decreased to 99,000 BTC, with a cumulative sale of approximately 28,000 BTC this year, valued at about $1.78 billion at current prices.Analysis indicates that although the scale of this sell-off is smaller than the net outflow of over $4.4 billion from U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs, the continuous and stable marginal selling pressure in the context of a declining market and weak buying interest is often underestimated in its impact on prices. BTC has fallen a total of 27% since the beginning of 2026, underperforming major assets including the S&P 500. Additionally, due to narrowing mining profits (the current average production cost per BTC is about $74,300), an increasing number of miners are transitioning to AI computing power businesses. Meanwhile, the overall mining difficulty has decreased by about 18% from its peak in November, resulting in an approximate 18% increase in mining revenue for remaining miners, reshaping the competitive landscape of the industry.

Renowned trader Doctor Profit posted that a historical indicator for Bitcoin is signaling that "the bottom has either formed or is very close." In 2015, 2019, and 2022, the bear market bottom formation phase began when the realized price of holders for 3 to 6 months fell below the realized price of holders for 1 to 2 years. He believes this indicates that newer buyers are capitulating and selling at a loss, with Bitcoin gradually transferring to longer-term holders.Currently, this crossover is appearing for the fourth time, while the BTC price is below the average cost of both categories of holders. However, historically, this signal does not immediately lead to a reversal; Bitcoin typically experiences several months of sideways movement to complete the bottoming process, so this phase can also be seen as a long-term accumulation range. He believes we are currently in the bottom formation and long-term accumulation phase of the bear market. Doctor Profit stated that over the past few weeks, he has been gradually buying BTC in batches within the range of $54,000 to $64,000, continuing to build his position incrementally with 5% of his portfolio each time.

According to reports from Fast Technology, Changxin Memory's 17nm DDR5 chip yield has surpassed 90%, which is only about 2 percentage points lower than Samsung's same-generation products at 92% to 93%, marking a technical indicator that has entered the global first tier. Several major PC manufacturers have completed certification for Changxin DRAM chips around mid-year and have begun to incorporate them in small batches into certain laptops.The strategies adopted by different brands show significant differences: Dell has completely banned the use of Changxin chips; HP restricts their use to the mainland China market; Acer and ASUS have incorporated them into models aimed at the mainland China and emerging markets. Currently, the impact of Changxin products on the overall market prices of the three major memory giants remains limited, mainly because Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron are currently more inclined to supply LPDDR5, while Changxin's current strategic focus is on expanding DDR5 shipments. Executives from PC companies have stated that the three major manufacturers hold over 90% of the global DRAM market share, and large-scale adoption must be approached with high caution. Currently, the number and usage of models using Changxin chips are quite limited.
