BREAKING: Bitcoin Demand Turns Positive in Both Spot and Futures Markets
For the first time since Bitcoin’s all-time high in October 2025, demand has turned positive in both the regular (spot) market and the leveraged perpetual futures market.
In simple terms:
> Spot demand means people are actually buying and holding real Bitcoin on exchanges.
> Perpetual futures demand means traders are increasing leveraged bets that the price will rise.
When both move higher at the same time, it usually shows broader buying interest from both long-term holders and short-term traders. The last time this happened was around Bitcoin’s previous peak.
According to data from CryptoQuant, the current rise is still modest. Analysts note that if this trend continues for another month, it could signal that the recent downturn is ending and a stronger upward phase may be beginning.
A clear shift in market demand after many months of weaker buying pressure.
