BTC BEARS REMAIN IN CONTROL BELOW 81,500

$BTC has slipped 3.4%, and the 1H structure still favors the bears while price remains below the 81,500 structure edge.

The setup is bearish with a clear downside path toward 77,600, followed by 77,332.5. If demand fails, 76,400 becomes the next major downside target.

Preferred short entry: 78,697–80,280 on a failed reclaim or liquidity tap around 78,864. Avoid chasing the move near 77,930.

Confirmation is key: look for a rejection wick, bearish engulfing, or lower-timeframe structure break. Weak volume should be treated cautiously.

Invalidation: 1H close above 81,500.

Targets: 77,600 → 77,332.5 → 76,400
