Long-Term Insight: Used to assess our long-term position—bull market, bear market, structural change, or neutral conditions

Medium-Term Assessment

  • BTC Exchange Trend Net Position

  • Stablecoin Total Supply Net Position

  • Long- and Short-Term Supply Net Position

  • Realized Profit and Loss Net Position

(Chart below: BTC Exchange Trend Net Position)

On-chain BTC exchange flow data shows that a small amount of potential sell-side supply continues to accumulate at exchange addresses, reflecting a cautious mindset among market participants, with concerns not yet fully dissipated.

This potential selling pressure has not yet been released all at once, and is currently acting as an implicit drag on the market.

(Chart below: Stablecoin Total Supply Net Position)

The stock of stablecoins is gradually declining, indirectly indicating a slight outflow of funds from the market.

There is insufficient inflow of new capital, while the existing pool continues to contract. Over the medium term, this poses a potential risk of tightening liquidity, which could limit further upside in the market.

(Chart below: Long- and Short-Term Supply Net Position)

The market currently shows signs of divergence in capital flows:

  1. Short-term capital is gradually entering and providing support, while long-term holders continue to distribute their holdings slowly—a pattern resembling a primary uptrend driven by new capital.

  2. Market participants remain cautious overall, making the competitive landscape more complex; the trend direction should not be judged too simplistically.

(Chart below: Realized Profit and Loss Net Position)

On-chain spending of coins at a profit or loss shows no significant increase in either profit-taking pressure or loss-driven selling. The annualized moving average of coin holdings remains stable, with no major fluctuations alongside the price structure.

A relatively positive sign is that selling by holders at a loss has eased, helping to keep the current price structure stable.

However, there has been little profit-taking, indirectly indicating a lack of buyers willing to step in and drive prices higher.

The market may need to rely on the accumulation of coins among participants to recover going forward.

Weekly Summary:

Medium-Term On-Chain Assessment:

  1. A small amount of supply is accumulating on exchanges, and market sentiment is cautious;

  2. Stablecoin supply is declining, raising liquidity concerns;

  3. Long- and short-term capital flows are diverging, making market dynamics complex;

  4. Selling pressure is broadly stable, but upward momentum remains insufficient.

  • Market Outlook:

Stalemate and divergence

Capital flows are diverging and bulls and bears are at an impasse; wait for coin accumulation and increased buying power to improve conditions

Short-Term On-Chain Outlook:

  1. Derivatives Rating: The risk factor is in the green zone, indicating low derivatives risk.

  2. Sentiment Rating: Neutral.

  • Market Outlook:

Market sentiment is neutral. There are no particular expectations for this week; wait patiently for the market to show its direction. If the price reaches the short-term holder cost basis (a strong short-term support level), that would present another opportunity to build a position.
