According to Cointelegraph, Bitcoin's short-term holders (STHs) have demonstrated resilience despite the cryptocurrency's negative year-to-date (YTD) performance and its struggle to surpass the $100,000 mark. Throughout 2025, STHs have managed to log profits for 66% of the year, even as Bitcoin traded below its yearly opening price. The STH realized price at $81,000 has served as a pivotal sentiment marker, delineating phases of panic and recovery. Unrealized losses have narrowed from -28% to -12%, indicating a reduction in capitulation. Bitcoin's price volatility in 2025 can be attributed to the behavior of the 1–3 month STH cohort. The cryptocurrency's price has frequently interacted with its realized price, resulting in alternating periods of net-unrealized profit/loss (NUPL) profitability and losses. Early in the year, Bitcoin remained above this cost basis for nearly two months, providing STHs with sustained profits. However, a shift in February and March saw prices dip below the cohort's realized price, leading to one of the year's longest stretches of losses. Momentum shifted dramatically from late April through mid-October, with Bitcoin experiencing a 172-day period of predominantly profitable STH activity. Despite a softening broader trend, these recoveries elevated STH profitability beyond market expectations. In late October, the market fell below the realized price once more, initiating a 45-day period of STH losses coinciding with an expanding red NUPL region. The profitability of STHs in 2025 has been influenced more by Bitcoin's ability to reclaim its cost basis than by its directional trend. These repeated rebounds, even within a negative YTD environment, have allowed short-term holders to achieve a two-thirds profit ratio. As Bitcoin rebounded toward $92,500, STH unrealized losses compressed from -28% to -12%, suggesting a decrease in forced selling and emotional exhaustion. The STH realized price at $81,000 remains a psychological fulcrum, marking transitions from capitulation to stability. New investors entering the market within days to weeks are hovering near breakeven, reinforcing this stabilizing structure. If Bitcoin continues to improve STH profitability while maintaining its position above the $81,000 foundation, the late-year correction may be nearing completion, potentially setting the stage for the next expansion phase.
