The flagship crypto traded below $35,000 price levels in the early hours of Monday as fears over weak support increased profit-taking measures among a significant number of investors.

The recent “death cross” on Bitcoin’s daily and hourly charts weakened price stability as Bitcoin miners continue to face immense pressure from China in the wake of deadly coal accidents, further weakened Bitcoin bulls resolve to break above $38,000.

Additionally, trading activity in Bitcoin’s futures has dropped drastically, particularly relative to the $120 Billion in trading volumes that occurred during the capitulation event last month.

Although data from Glassnode, a crypto analytic firm that shows about $15 Billion in additional trading volumes came to play following the vote in El Salvador, the first country to adopt Bitcoin has a legal tender, hence current trading data expose volumes are tanking once again.

Despite these mixed signals, it’s important to note long-term investors using the net monthly rate of Bitcoins maturing across the 155-day threshold, reveal a very large volume of Bitcoins were bought in the early bull phase, and have remained largely unsold.
