Analysis: BTC or near stage bottom, Strategy sells without causing excessive market panic

On 11 July, the latest report by Bitfinex Alpha indicated that Strategy had recently made its first large-scale sale of bitcoin, but that the market had shown more resilience and had not experienced significant pressure to sell, and that the trend in July was now positive. At this stage, some 1.08 million BTCs are in an unrealized deficit, while some 9.22 million BTCs remain profitable, and the market is not yet in a position to fully judge whether investors have absorbed recent changes in financial flows, but the volume of spot transactions does not fully reflect the effects of previous large-scale financial outflows and may thus be close to the bottom stage of bear market formation. With the change in the ETF asset allocation and the re-engineering of financial flows, the July Bitcoin market is likely to have new variables. As long-term holders and some giant whales re-emerge, bitcoin is shifting from low-faith holders to higher-faith investors, and the next two to three months may be an important window for identifying the stage bottom。

Trump wrote in Truth Social warning Iran that the market was worried about bitcoin falling

Trump wrote on Truth Social warning Iran that “1,000 missiles have been locked and targeted at Iran” and warning that thousands of missiles would follow if the Iranian Government acted on its alleged threat. This statement was issued following the sharing of information between Israel and the United States, claiming that Iran had a new plan to assassinate Trump. As tensions in the Middle East increased and the market's concerns over bitcoin increased, analysts felt that bitcoin prices might face additional pressure on sales.

Former high-ranking Pentagon official: Kiev will not be able to produce Patriot missiles for the next few years

According to Russian satellite networks, Chas Freeman, a retired United States diplomat and former Assistant Secretary for International Security Affairs of the Department of Defense, stated that even if the United States had granted production permission to Ukraine, the Ukrainian side would not be able to self-assembly assemble “patriotic” anti-aircraft missile systems in the coming years. “In fact, Ukraine should not even wish to open up the production of `patriotic' missiles in the coming years”, Friedman said. At the same time, he stressed that it would take two years to produce a complete system, even on the American mainland. Freeman adds: “There is currently no `patriotic' system in the United States for Ukraine, nor will it be in the coming years. And we expect that by that time the conflict will have ended”。

Reserve company holding the total market value of bitcoin evaporated over $100 billion

Analyst Darkfost monitoring data indicate that since October 2025, the total market value of the “reserve companies” holding bitcoin has evaporated over $100 billion, with the valuation declining from $39.6 billion to $27.2 billion. Despite the shrinking market value of assets, the total number of BTCs held by these companies increased from 950,000 to 1.14 million. The large-scale inhaling of these companies was concentrated in the period from November 2024 to October 2025, when entry prices ranged from $75,000 to $125 million, a period that tripled. Since May this year, however, as markets enter the “deep underestimation” region, the pace of growth in these enterprises has slowed significantly and even stalled. The focus of market attention is whether these “high-entry” reserve companies will choose to leave at a lower level as front-runners like Strategy begin to sell。
