[Analyst: Bitcoin Investors Realized $1.65 Billion in Profits Yesterday, Setting a New High for 2026] Odaily Planet Daily News – CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost stated that the Bitcoin market recently reached its highest level of realized profits since 2026. Data shows that as of August 20, the market's cumulative realized profits for the day amounted to approximately $1.65 billion, indicating that a large number of investors are taking profits at higher levels. Darkfost pointed out that as realized profits continue to climb, the market requires sustained new demand to absorb the selling pressure. At present, buyer demand remains stable and is capable of offsetting the supply pressure caused by investors cashing out profits. If subsequent capital inflows and market demand continue to hold steady, the current scale of profit realization does not yet pose a significant risk. However, if demand weakens, the increasing profit-taking pressure could exert downward pressure on prices.
