99% Of Recent Bitcoin Buyers Now At A Loss

Nearly 99% of Bitcoin investors who have purchased the cryptocurrency in the past 155 days are currently holding at a loss, as the price has fallen to $96,000. This follows a 12-day decline in BTC price.

Glassnode highlighted this statistic as Bitcoin traded below the $100,000 mark. The downturn appears to be linked to Bitcoin’s correlation with the Nasdaq, impacting the digital asset’s narrative. While some find humor in Bitcoin’s recent cultural visibility, such as an appearance in a New Yorker cartoon, the price action remains a concern.

Despite the price decline, institutional interest persists. Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley revealed that a $1 trillion AUM bank invited his team to brief advisors on Bitcoin, indicating continued confidence. Harvard University’s large Bitcoin ETF investment further demonstrates institutional involvement. The UAE’s sovereign wealth fund (Al Warda) has also increased its Bitcoin ETF exposure by 230% since June 2025, now holding 7.9 million shares valued at $517 million.

On-chain analysis suggests the sell-side pressure originates from existing Bitcoin holders, not options or manipulation. This has been a persistent feature throughout the current cycle, contributing to the prolonged periods of consolidation.

As of 2:03 pm UTC on Nov. 15, 2025, Bitcoin is trading at $96,270.40, up 1.23% over the past 24 hours. Bitcoin’s market capitalization stands at $1.92 trillion, with a 24-hour trading volume of $80.24 billion. The total cryptocurrency market is valued at $3.26 trillion with a 24-hour volume of $168.17 billion, and Bitcoin’s dominance is 58.83%.
