Crypto markets are experiencing a sharp pullback, with onchain data suggesting potential buying opportunities amid profit-taking. Bitcoin has seen over $1.5 billion in realized profits since July 18, the largest since December 2024. Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and TRON have also witnessed significant profit realizations in recent weeks.

Glassnode data shows long-term investors driving the dip in crypto markets, leading to negative sentiment but possibly creating an entry point for patient traders. Trader Ted Pillows notes that current minor dips do not indicate mass selling, hinting at further upside potential.

Retail sentiment has shifted bearish as Bitcoin dips below $113,000, the most negative since June 22.
