According to BlockBeats, Bitfinex's latest report highlights that Bitcoin is experiencing a phase of weak spot demand intertwined with ongoing structural fatigue. Although the market shows signs of stabilization, it remains far from healthy recovery. Bitcoin has rebounded from recent lows but continues to fluctuate within a narrow range of $84,000 to $91,000, contrasting with the S&P 500 index nearing historical highs. This underscores Bitcoin's relative weakness and increasing decoupling from traditional risk assets. On-chain data reveals that over 7 million BTC are currently in an unrealized loss state, reminiscent of the early 2022 consolidation period. This suggests difficulty in returning to the 'real market mean,' a critical threshold distinguishing mid-cycle weakness from a full-blown bear market deterioration. Despite these challenges, capital inflows remain moderately positive, providing a slight buffer against further declines. However, spot demand has significantly worsened, with U.S. Bitcoin ETFs consistently recording outflows, a sharp decline in active buying interest, and major trading platforms showing a negative cumulative volume difference. This indicates that traders are selling on rallies rather than accumulating positions.
