[Analyst: Bitcoin Short-Term Holders Remain Profitable, $76,500 Cost Base Provides Support] CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost points out that Bitcoin short-term holders (STH) have been profitable on average for nearly two months, with an estimated cost base of $76,500 and a current average profit margin of approximately 5.5%. This level has narrowed significantly compared to less than a month ago when unrealized profits averaged 20%. The last time short-term holders held such high profits was shortly before the October 2025 peak, so the subsequent market consolidation is not surprising. Darkfost believes that short-term holders remain profitable, and their cost base of $76,500 remains a key support level to watch, where short-term holders may intervene to defend their average entry price.
