Gate News message, April 23 — Renowned Bitcoin trader Killa (@KillaXBT) stated that Bitcoin must successfully recover and hold above the 111-day simple moving average (SMA) to confirm a trend reversal. Without this, Bitcoin faces strong pullback risks within the longer-term bearish framework on weekly and monthly timeframes, and Killa does not recommend a bullish outlook at this time.
Killa, a quantitative trader focused on BTC, previously predicted the peak of the current bull market in May 2025 and has over 180,000 followers on X. In mid-April, Killa opened a short position on Bitcoin at $74,688 and is currently underwater on the trade.

CryptoQuant: April’s BTC rise was driven by perpetual futures, warning of correction risk
The study said that in April, the Bitcoin price was driven by perpetual contract long positions, while spot demand remained weak. The increase rose from $66k to $79k, about 20%. The structure resembled the early stage of the 2022 bear market. The study’s head warned that unless spot demand turns positive, it would be difficult to sustainably break above $79k, and the risk of corrections is increasing. The bull market score index fell from 50 to 40, with spot-expressed demand still negative, suggesting that the rally may be driven by leverage rather than new buying pressure.
