Bitcoin is holding just below $70k after a hawkish FOMC, ETF outflows, and a shift to Fear, with weak long conviction but easing miner selling and difficulty.

Bitcoin’s mining difficulty is set to drop about 7.5% tonight, the sharpest fall since the 2022 bear, as hash rate leaves the network and miner margins get relief. Summary CoinWarz estimates difficulty will fall from 145.04 trillion to 134.09 trillion at around 20:51 UTC, a roughly 7.55% drop and the steepest since the 2022 bear phase. The adjustment reflects slower blocks at about 10.82 minutes on average as unprofitable miners switch off, compressing hash price and forcing out higher-cost operators. A drop of this size often signals miner capitulation; weaker…
Bitcoin’s latest recovery toward $69,700 is unfolding with almost no change in futures open interest, a pattern CoinGlass says fits a range-bound, leverage-heavy market rather than the start of a durable bullish trend.

BTC now trades between a long-liquidation pocket below $66,827, where roughly $1.878b in longs sit, and a short-squeeze zone above $73,757 holding about $1.062b in shorts.
