Odaily Planet Daily reports that Germany's financial system is experiencing rapid expansion of crypto asset services. Several local financial institutions, including cooperative banks and savings banks, are planning to launch cryptocurrency trading services for retail customers, allowing users to buy and sell virtual assets directly without third-party trading platforms. These banks, which have long served local households and businesses, are gradually embedding crypto trading functionality into their existing retail banking systems. It is expected that these services will be launched in the coming months, covering millions of potential users. Analysts believe this trend demonstrates that Germany's traditional banking system is accelerating its embrace of the digital asset market within a compliant framework, which may further promote the penetration of cryptocurrencies into the mainstream European financial system.

According to CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost on the X platform, active Bitcoin investors are currently experiencing a loss of approximately 20%, and market sentiment is in a "devaluation" phase, but has not yet reached the depth of historical bear market pressures. Darkfost points out that the True Market Mean (TMM) is currently around $76,700, reflecting the average holding cost of actively circulating BTC (excluding long-term inactive, potentially lost, or illiquid supply). Historically, this level constituted a significant resistance zone in May, with some investors choosing to exit the market without incurring losses or with only minor losses. Meanwhile, the AVIV ratio (Active Value to Investor Value) is currently around 0.8, meaning that active investors are generally down about 20% from their cost basis. In contrast, during historical bear market phases, this indicator typically drops to 0.5–0.6, corresponding to a deeper retracement of approximately 40%–50%. The analysis suggests that the entry of institutional funds and ETFs in this cycle has not changed the cyclical nature of Bitcoin, and the market is still operating along its own structure. Despite the current obvious pressure to reduce valuations, a rebound may not necessarily be triggered by a drop to the extreme levels of historical bear markets. Overall, a cautious assessment of cyclical fluctuations is still necessary.
