CryptoQuant posted on X that Bitcoin’s spot demand is about to turn positive for the first time since February.
Historically, that signal has produced an 18.1% median gain over the following 60 days with a 78% win rate. At current depressed valuations, that win rate climbs to 87%.
Why Bitcoin Has Gone So Quiet
CoinDesk reported that Bitcoin’s 30-day realized volatility has fallen to 42% annualized against 18% for the S&P 500 (NYSE:SPY), the narrowest gap on record.
B2C2 global head of trading Edmond Goh attributed the compression to market maturation, pointing to more institutional participants, tighter risk models, and high-frequency traders from traditional finance all pushing crypto spreads closer to equity market norms.
Meanwhile, Monarq Asset Management managing partner Shiliang Tang told CoinDesk the setup is a tug-of-war with no winner.
Corporate treasury selling from Strategy (NASDAQ:MSTR) and MARA Holdings (NASDAQ:MARA) keeps a ceiling on rallies, while flushed leverage and long-term holder accumulation blocks meaningful downside.
Moreover, NYDIG global head of research Greg Cipolaro put it plainly in a research report: short-horizon traders have rotated into AI equities, prediction markets, and leveraged equity derivatives chasing 5x to 10x payoffs that Bitcoin is not offering right now.
What Are Bitcoin’s Key Price Levels Right Now?
