Headgasket, pistons, ringlands, fucked up valves... There are a lot to take into consideration.

How does it feel when/if you drive it?

I'd pull the head to start off with and see what's going on with the pistons/and rings. Did you run it hard before it started happening?

drop oil into ur bad pistons and do the compression test again. if it holds compression then it means ur rings are bad. i dont think its a headgasket though.. u might have blown pistons or bad rings
