Analyst Willy Woo Says Bitcoin As Trillion-Dollar Asset Here To Stay, Sees Liquidation of BTC Bears Next

By Henry Kanapi

A widely followed on-chain analyst thinks that Bitcoin (BTC) bears are about to get wiped out following last week’s crypto correction.

Analyst Willy Woo tells his 1.1 million followers on the social media platform X that the most recent Bitcoin retracement to $60,000 flushed out leveraged longs.

Woo says he doesn’t see Bitcoin going down in a straight line as he believes that BTC bulls will defend the “formidable” short-term holder (STH) at $59,000. According to the analyst, the odds are higher that BTC will bounce and liquidate traders who shorted at around $70,000.

“We flushed out long leverage down to $60,000.

To liquidate lower, price would have broken the formidable $59,000 STH support, and a strong sign of a bear market.

More likely short liquidations to $71,000-$75,000 is next.

Woo is also keeping a close eye on the amount of Bitcoin supply available on crypto exchanges. According to the analyst, BTC’s inventory on exchanges has been on a downtrend since October 2022, suggesting that it’s only a matter of time before demand overwhelms supply and pushes Bitcoin to new all-time highs (ATH).

“Looking at views of demand and supply, this chart being only one of them, it’s just a matter of time before the accumulation happening throughout this consolidation squeezes us past ATH. Patience is key, don’t be degenerate.”

Woo also highlights that the current consolidation around the all-time highs is creating a solid support level for BTC. According to Woo, the ongoing accumulation between $60,000 and $70,000 is establishing a base of buyers that will secure BTC’s place as a trillion-dollar asset.

“Remember: the longer BTC consolidates around ATH, the more coins that change hands between investors cementing its price discovery.

This creates formidable long-term support once we break it.

Bitcoin as a trillion-dollar asset class is here to stay.

This is a good thing.”
