Whale sell walls cluster around $69K as Bitcoin profit structure stays elevated. Here is what analysts say about the next BTC move.
Bitcoin is grinding into a critical resistance zone. A massive cluster of whale sell walls sits between $68,800 and $69,600.
CoinGlass flagged the development, pointing to the thickest supply concentration just above $69,000.
Bulls are currently pushing into this overhead liquidity. How price reacts here could shape the next major BTC move.

#BTC whale orderbook update
BTC is grinding into a heavy cluster of whale sell walls here.
Major overhead liquidity sits from $68.8K to $69.6K, with the thickest concentration around $69K+.
On the downside, bid support is layered near $67.2K, $66.4K, and deeper around $65.8K.… pic.twitter.com/Xxy0E69wjl

On the downside, bid support layers are holding at $67,200, $66,400, and deeper around $65,800. These levels offer a cushion if price gets rejected.
CoinGlass noted that price is actively being pulled toward that overhead liquidity now.
The key question is whether buyers can absorb the supply above $69,000. If they do, CoinGlass says continuation opens up quickly. If not, the zone likely becomes a liquidity tap followed by a swift rejection.
While price action tests resistance, on-chain data tells a broader story.
CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. shared a detailed breakdown of Bitcoin’s profit structure on April 1, 2026. The share of profitable Bitcoin coins has recovered to 66.4%, with the 30-day moving average sitting at 69.1%.
Bitcoin Profit Structure Has Not Reset Yet
“As long as the long-term average holds near 87.5%, this is better described as a prolonged cyclical correction with elevated two-way volatility, rather than a full bearish-phase reset.” – By @AxelAdlerJr pic.twitter.com/QWI3CfrmC3

The critical benchmark here is the 365-day moving average, which currently stands at 87.5%. Adler noted that this metric has not entered a full capitulation regime.
He pointed out that previous cycle resets saw the annual average compress sharply. In May 2019, it fell as low as 63.8% after peaking near 97% at the end of 2017.
The current cycle looks different. Despite the 2026 drawdown pushing the metric to a low of 55.7%, the 365-day average remains well above past reset zones.
Adler described this as a prolonged cyclical correction with elevated two-way volatility, not a true bearish-phase reset.

Both data points paint a market at a crossroads. Short-term, the $69,000 zone is the line in the sand.
CoinGlass made it clear that this is the key area traders should watch. A clean break above it shifts the outlook, while a rejection keeps the range intact.
Longer term, CryptoQuant’s analysis suggests the broader structure remains intact.
The network’s annual profit average staying near 87.5% separates this phase from past bear cycles. Adler concluded that the market is experiencing severe internal compression, but structural reset conditions have not been met.
Bitcoin remains in a sensitive zone. Both the order book and on-chain data suggest the next directional move is close.
