The founder of Liebit Mining Pool, Jiang Zhuoer, posted on the X platform stating that the number of ETH queued for withdrawal from staking has risen to 850,000, with the waiting time increasing to 14.77 days, both of which are the highest within 2026. This indicates that a group of coin holders believes the current coin price is relatively high and needs to sell coins to lock in profits.

According to Axel Adler Jr's monitoring, although the price of Bitcoin has further risen to around $87,000, the market's profit-taking pressure is weaker than in August.

During the same period, losses realized over the past 7 days dropped from $2.6 billion to $1.5 billion. As of today, Bitcoin's net realized profit over the past 7 days is $4.3 billion.The Short-Term Holder SOPR has remained above 1 since August 20, indicating that the overall Bitcoin transferred by short-term holders is still in profit, but the profit margin has narrowed. At the peak on August 26, the corresponding profit margin for short-term holder SOPR was 2.8%; it dropped to 1.6% at the peak on September 23; and as of today, it has further decreased to 1%. During the pullback of Bitcoin to $76,500 on September 17, the short-term holder SOPR fell to a low of 1.003, with the profit margin for short-term holders transferring Bitcoin narrowing to 0.3%, but it did not fall below 1.

CryptoQuant's Research Director Julio Moreno stated that with the recent rise in Bitcoin, the unrealized profit rate has increased to 33%, reaching the highest level since December 2024.Meanwhile, the scale of Bitcoin profit-taking has risen to 25,700 BTC, marking the highest level since 2026. Moreno believes that the simultaneous rise in unrealized profit rate and profit-taking scale typically indicates that the momentum of this rally is weakening, and the market faces the risk of a correction.

Analyst Darkfost stated that Bitcoin long-term holders (LTH) currently have an realized profit level of about 72%. Although they are in a profitable state, there is still a significant gap compared to previous market peaks.In comparison, in December 2024, LTH realized profits once approached 350%. Darkfost believes that long-term holders are currently in a relatively moderate profit-taking phase, similar to the levels during the last bear market, so most LTH may prefer to continue holding rather than cashing out on a large scale at this stage.

U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren delivered a speech in the Senate lasting over 10 minutes, calling for a vote against the CLARITY Act. She stated that Trump and his family profited $1.4 billion from the crypto business in 2025 alone, exceeding the revenue of any publicly listed crypto company in the U.S. last year, and that buyers of his crypto projects lost billions of dollars, with meme coin buyers losing nearly $4 billion.The Senate failed to pass the procedural vote with a result of 49-50, falling short by 11 votes of the 60 needed to begin debate, with no Democrats voting to advance it. Warren claimed that the bill would exacerbate Trump's corruption and criticized the ethical terms negotiated by the Republicans with the White House as a "tiny fig leaf," stating that it would not prevent Trump from continuing to profit from crypto.Warren also stated that the bill would create a huge loophole in nearly a century of securities law, allowing non-crypto companies to put assets on-chain to evade investor protections, and enabling banks to use customer deposits for crypto lending, trading derivatives, operating nodes, and selling related software.

Bonk Guy fiercely criticized the token project related to Hunter Biden's "LAPTOP," stating that after further observation of the situation following the token's launch, he believes the project clearly exhibits speculative behavior of "wanting to extract profits while knowing very little about the crypto industry."Bonk Guy particularly questioned the fully diluted valuation (FDV) of up to $100 billion after the token's launch, bluntly stating that this valuation is "absurd to the extreme," and questioned why Hunter Biden himself would become the narrative core of the crypto market. He pointed out that the public's attention on Hunter Biden largely stems from the numerous controversies he sparked during his father Joe Biden's presidency, while the Biden administration has generally taken a relatively tough regulatory stance on the crypto industry.Finally, Bonk Guy warned that investors buying the token at the current valuation face extremely high risks, stating that "anyone who buys it deserves to lose 100% of their funds."

CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost stated that during the recent rise of Bitcoin to $80,000, the average unrealized profit margin for short-term holders (STH) is close to 15%. The estimated holding cost is currently around $70,100, and the profit level has reached the highest since July 2025. This range is often accompanied by significant profit growth, which also makes the holding mentality of short-term holders more unstable, and some investors may choose to take profits. Therefore, it is not surprising that Bitcoin is temporarily stagnating around $80,000.
