$BTC recorded 1.38 billion USDT in Binance spot turnover while gaining 0.87% in the rolling daily snapshot.
That turnover is the value of trades, not money flowing into Bitcoin. Every completed trade has a buyer and a seller, and the same coins can change hands repeatedly.
Why it matters: a large trading total does not tell you how much fresh capital arrived or whether holders are accumulating. Treat it as activity, then check how price behaves before calling it demand.
The downside risk: heavy trading can accompany selling pressure, so buying on volume alone can leave you exposed to a reversal.
