The Short-Term Holder Cost Basis Distribution Heatmap reveals an interesting pattern in BTC's recent consolidation between $80K and $95K. The price action reflects a top-heavy cost structure where fresh demand is meeting selling pressure from recent buyers in this zone. This overhead supply—accumulated from bounces that tested resistance levels—continues to anchor prices, preventing further upside breakout attempts and shaping the current market equilibrium.

Look at this cost distribution... a typical mechanism imbalance. The chip accumulation above = lack of incentive-compatible buyers. In other words, the game is not yet balanced. The 80,000-95,000 range is very similar to the deadlock in DAO voting stalls. New entrants can't find a breakthrough point. Historically, every time this happens, we have to wait for a turning point or a collapse.

The 80k-95k range is being firmly suppressed. It's really frustrating. How much loss do the trapped people above have to cut to break free?
