Bitcoin recorded gains this week and reached a one month high of 74,000 dollars as selling pressure across the crypto market began to ease. A report from the on chain analytics platform CryptoQuant explained that a reduction in selling activity combined with improving demand signals helped support the recent short term recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One sign of this shift can be seen in the change in apparent spot demand for Bitcoin. According to the analytics firm, demand contraction was about negative 136,000 BTC at the start of 2026. That figure has since improved to roughly negative 25,000 BTC, suggesting that selling pressure in spot markets has weakened significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long Term Holders Reduce Selling Activity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another important signal came from the Coinbase Premium Index, which measures the price difference between the exchange Coinbase and offshore trading platforms. The index recently turned positive, a development that is often viewed as a sign of stronger buying activity from investors based in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CryptoQuant also pointed out that many investors currently hold unrealized losses at levels similar to those observed in July 2022. During the past thirty days, long term Bitcoin holders significantly reduced their selling activity. Their total outflows declined to about 276,000 BTC, compared with roughly 904,000 BTC recorded in November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This decline represents the lowest monthly outflow from long term holders since June 2025 and has helped reduce supply pressure in the market. When investors in this category slow down their selling, it often limits immediate downward pressure during uncertain market conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even with the recent recovery, analysts caution that Bitcoin could encounter resistance around the 79,000 dollar level if the current momentum continues. A stronger resistance level may appear near 90,000 dollars. This level reflects the broader realized price for active market participants and has previously capped price gains earlier this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Market Sentiment Remains Cautious<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the latest rise in price, overall market sentiment remains relatively weak based on data from CryptoQuant. The firm\u2019s Bull Score Index currently sits close to 10 out of 100, indicating that strong bullish signals remain limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The analytics platform described the recent move as a relief rally rather than the start of a sustained upward trend. It warned that ongoing macroeconomic pressure and cautious investor sentiment could still slow further gains in the short term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CryptoQuant also highlighted that global liquidity conditions and expectations surrounding interest rates continue to influence demand for digital assets. These broader economic factors may play a major role in determining whether the current recovery can continue in the months ahead.#cryptonews https:\/\/coinsignals.net<\/a> https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
