Bitcoin Holds Above $113K but Faces Persistent Selling PressureBitcoin / US DollarCOINBASE:BTCUSDProfessorSingaporeBitcoin Holds Above $113K but Faces Persistent Selling Pressure Bitcoin remains range-bound despite a positive start to the day, trading near $113,011, up 1.8% in the past 24 hours. Earlier this month, the leading cryptocurrency reached a record high above $124,000 on optimism about interest-rate cuts. Since then, it has pulled back but is attempting to rebound from recent lows around $110,000, as President Donald Trump increases pressure on the Federal Reserve to lower rates. Lower interest rates typically boost demand for risk assets like cryptocurrencies and weaken the U.S. dollar, both factors supporting Bitcoin’s valuation. Hyblock’s liquidation heatmap shows BTC absorbing bids in the $111,000–$110,000 range during the weekend sell-off, with another liquidity cluster near $104,000. While a deeper drop toward $104K looks unlikely for now, institutional selling continues to outweigh retail demand, limiting upside potential. Traders seeking a consolidation phase should watch the anchored aggregated daily CVD for signs of easing sell pressure and shifting sentiment.
