Overview
The Bitcoin market shows diverging trends across key sectors. With weak spot activity, steady derivatives engagement, and rising spot indicators remaining weak, as well as negative price momentum and liquidity, the market is approaching a key turning point. Declining strong sell pressure (-$200M CVD). Spot volume has dropped to volumes, and continued institutional involvement suggests accumulation, $11B, signaling cooling retail interest while rising liquidity indicates capital is ready for the next move.
Meanwhile, derivatives markets remain active, with futures open interest at $45B, though gradually declining. This suggests institutional traders are still engaged, using futures for both speculation and hedging. Low volatility is temporary - historically, extended consolidations often lead to major price swings. With elevated futures open interest and strong liquidity, the market is poised for a breakout, awaiting a clear catalyst.
On-chain metrics are mixed - fundamentals are declining but stable, liquidity is rising, and profitability remains moderate, keeping long-term holders in a solid position.
