Glassnode Co-Founder Pinpoints Bitcoin's Most Likely Bottom Zone" - that's 9 words, good. Or: "Bitcoin Below $60K: Glassnode Co-Founder Maps the Bottom" - 9 words.

Bitcoin's recent drop below $60,000 has rattled the crypto market. According to Glassnode co-founder Rafael Schultze-Kraft, the slide may have dragged Bitcoin into a price zone that has historically marked major market bottoms. The lingering question: is the bottom close, or is the market still busy handing out losses? Either way, somebody's spreadsheet is getting interesting.

Bitcoin Enters a Historical Support Zone The latest drop pushed Bitcoin to an intraday low of $59,791 before it clawed back above $61,000. The decline landed days after Strategy disclosed a partial Bitcoin sale, piling fresh pressure on an already wobbly market. According to Rafael, Bitcoin has now moved into a cluster of valuation levels that have historically acted as support during major drawdowns. One notable signal: Bitcoin has fallen below the median holder's breakeven price for the first time since December 2022. The asset is also trading around two closely watched levels — the Median Realized Price near $64,100 and the 200-week moving average around $61,700.

"Only ~7% of Bitcoin's history has been spent below this Median MVRV level" — Rafael (@n3ocortex), June 5, 2026 Rafael noted that "Only about 7% of Bitcoin's trading history has been spent below this Median MVRV level," suggesting the market is entering territory rarely seen outside major cycle lows. Translation: most holders have not been here often, and they'd probably like a refund.

Glassnode Identifies the Most Likely Bottom Range While several valuation models are flashing support signals, Rafael believes one metric stands above the rest. The Cyclical Value Days Destroyed (CVDD) model, currently near $46,200, has historically been one of Bitcoin's most accurate bottom indicators. In previous cycles, Bitcoin repeatedly found its final low close to this level before starting a recovery. Based on the current framework, Rafael sees the highest-probability bottom zone between Bitcoin's Realized Price around $54,000 and the CVDD level near $46,000. A deeper capitulation remains possible, but less likely. Below that sits a lower support range between $35,000 and $40,000 — a zone Bitcoin has visited during less than 3% of its trading history. Somewhere a long-term holder is smiling. Probably.

Why This Cycle May Be Different Rafael also shows that Bitcoin drawdowns have become less severe over time. Earlier bear markets saw declines of more than 80%, while the current cycle has fallen roughly 50% from its peak so far. That trend suggests Bitcoin may not need a dramatic collapse to complete its correction. For bulls, the next challenge is reclaiming higher levels. Rafael identified the $75,000 to $79,000 range as the first major recovery zone, where several important market indicators now converge. If history repeats, the market may be approaching the area where long-term buyers begin stepping back in. Patience, as always, required.

Hmm, let me reconsider. I added a bit too much humor in places. Let me keep it more subtle and dry. Also, I should double-check the rules:

• Light, dry crypto-native humor, not forced
• Keep all facts exact
• Don't add external knowledge
• Avoid corporate PR language
• No ALL CAPS except obvious emphasis

Let me revise to be a bit more measured with humor. I want it to feel natural, not forced.

Also, the tweet format - I should probably keep it cleaner. The original has the tweet inline. Let me keep the tweet representation but make it cleaner.

Let me also be careful: the quote "Only about 7% of Bitcoin's trading history has been spent below this Median MVRV level" must be exact. The tweet shows "Only ~7% of Bitcoin's history has been spent below this Median MVRV level" - these are different wordings but both in source. I'll use the cleaner one in the article body since that's how it's presented.

Let me also reconsider paragraph 1 - it has two sentences originally. I should keep that structure roughly.

Let me rewrite more cleanly:

• 5 paragraphs: ✓
• All facts preserved: ✓
• Quotes exact: ✓
• Numbers exact: ✓
• Light dry humor: subtle, not forced ✓
• No corporate PR language: ✓
• Title under 12 words: 9 words ✓

Hmm, but I should include the tweet too. Let me look at the source again:

"2/ $BTC has dipped below the median holder's breakeven level for the first time since Dec 2022. It now sits within a broader support cluster: Median Realized Price at $64.1K, and the 200WMA at $61.7K. Only ~7% of Bitcoin's history has been spent below this Median MVRV level."

This is actually the source of the quote. I think keeping the tweet in some form is good. But the article body has the cleaner quote. Let me add the tweet back in but as a representative block, since the article already has the substance.

Actually, looking again, the article does quote the tweet but with slightly different wording: "Only about 7% of Bitcoin's trading history has been spent below this Median MVRV level" — this is the article's cleaner version. The tweet has "Only ~7% of Bitcoin's history has been spent below this Median MVRV level."

I'll keep the article body's version since that's how it was published. And I can include the tweet reference naturally.

Let me also think about whether to include the tweet. The source article has it. I think I should include it as a small element, or at least reference the date. Let me see if I can integrate it cleanly.

Actually, I'll keep the tweet as a small blockquote in the second or third paragraph. Or maybe just the reference. Let me try:

Adding it after the support zone paragraph: "2/ $BTC has dipped below the median holder's breakeven level for the first time since Dec 2022. It now sits within a broader support cluster: Median Realized Price at $64.1K, and the 200WMA at $61.7K. Only ~7% of Bitcoin's history has been spent below this Median MVRV level." — @n3ocortex, June 5, 2026

That works. Let me finalize.

Wait, I need to include the tweet. Let me see where best to add it. The original has it as a separate element after the support zone paragraph. Let me add it before the quote paragraph or after. Actually, the tweet contains much of the same info already covered. Let me add a brief tweet reference somewhere.

Hmm, maybe I should just add the tweet as a quote/callout after the second paragraph, before the third. Or just keep my current version. The tweet is essentially the quote and supporting numbers, which are already in the article. I'll skip a heavy inclusion but reference @n3ocortex in the third paragraph for attribution.

Actually, let me look at it once more. The source has:

• Article body quote: "Only about 7% of Bitcoin's trading history has been spent below this Median MVRV level"
• Tweet quote: "Only ~7% of Bitcoin's history has been spent below this Median MVRV level"

Both are slightly different wordings. I'll keep the article body's wording and the tweet can be referenced by handle. Let me add a small mention of the tweet source.

Let me finalize and not overthink this. I think my current version is clean. Let me add a small mention of @n3ocortex in the third paragraph attribution to acknowledge the tweet source.

This looks good. Let me count paragraphs: 5. Title is 9 words. All facts preserved. Light dry humor. No corporate PR. No invented quotes.

Actually, "noted on X" - X is the rebranded Twitter. The original says "twitter.com" but the source has the tweet format. Let me just say "noted in a post" or attribute to @n3ocortex. Actually, the original doesn't explicitly say "X" - it just shows the tweet. Let me just say "noted in a tweet" or remove the platform reference and just attribute to Rafael.

Let me go with: "Rafael noted that..." - simpler and matches the original style.
