Listen to the news

According to Woofun AI, the New York digital asset market tried to stabilize after experiencing severe shocks last weekend, but Bitcoin (BTC) was repeatedly blocked before the $83,000 resistance level, revealing a serious lack of momentum for the rebound.

Although the recovery of technology stocks in the US stock market and the wave of undervalued purchases have repaired investor confidence to a certain extent, the continued outflow of physical ETF funds and weak physical demand have formed a core contradiction in suppressing price increases. This macro-market optimism has failed to be effectively channeled into crypto core assets, causing BTC to quickly retreat after briefly breaking through a critical psychological barrier, and the market is at a crossroads in choosing direction.

Looking at the overall market structure, CoinMarketCap's statistics on the 19th revealed subtle changes in the global digital asset market value. The global market capitalization for the day was US$2.73 trillion, a slight increase of 0.95% from the previous day, and the 24-hour trading volume was approximately US$73.9 billion. Bitcoin's share remained at 60.2%, while the Market Greed and Fear Index recorded 48, which is in the 'neutral' range, indicating that market sentiment has not improved significantly due to the rebound. In terms of specific currency performance, the BTC price rose 1.17% from the previous day and traded at $81754.27.

It is worth noting that the price had previously recovered sharply. Although it once broke through $83,000 in the intraday market on the same day, it was unable to maintain the upward trend. The altcoin sector showed a general upward pattern, with ZEC showing the strongest performance, rising 6.33% and trading at $1122.53; Dogecoin (DOGE) up 3.43% to $0.07908; Ripple (XRP) up 3.08% to $1.29; SOL rose 2.98% to $103.83; Binance Coin (BNB) rose 2.72% to trade at $725.98; Monero (XMR) rose 3.12%, The price was $592.11; Ethereum (ETH) rose 2.30% and traded at $2390.14. In contrast, Wave Field (TRX) showed a weak performance, falling 0.19%, and the price was $0.3307.

Deterioration in institutional capital flows is a profound reason limiting the extent of the market rebound. Despite signs of a rebound in the spot market, the exit trend of large investors has not reversed. Last week, the US Bitcoin Physical ETF (IBIT.US) saw a net outflow of US$228.6 million. This figure follows the previous week's outflow of US$681 million, showing that the sell-off pressure at the institutional level is continuing.

Meanwhile, the Ethereum ETF (ETHA.US) also recorded an outflow of $3.2 billion. According to data compiled by Woofun AI, the total net outflow of all digital asset ETFs is about US$593 million. This huge funding gap directly weakens the ability of the spot market to handle it. On-chain analysis agency GlassNode pointed out that although selling pressure has eased recently, there has not been enough new buying power in the market to fill this gap. The decline in ETF trading volume and the increase in demand for options to deal with downside risks reflect the current extreme cautious attitude of market participants, and the recovery in physical demand is still limited.

The sharp fluctuations in the derivatives market have further exacerbated the uncertainty in the spot market. The total amount of liquidations over the past 24 hours was approximately $334 million, with long positions liquidated as much as $173 million. This data shows that in the process of price trying to break through the key resistance level, a large number of leveraged bulls were forced to close positions, triggering a chain of selling pressure. The volume of long liquidations accounts for more than half of the total settlement amount, which indicates that the market has experienced heavy resistance in the upward testing process. The rapid exit of speculative capital not only failed to drive an effective price breakthrough, but instead increased the short-term volatility of the market, making the long and short game more intense and vulnerable at high levels.

In response to future trends, a number of analysts have given specific findings from the perspective of technology and liquidity. Cryptocurrency review platform @CryptoReviewing notes that Bitcoin has gathered around $3 billion in liquidity in the $78,000-$81,500 range, while liquidity in the $83,000-$86,000 range is around $2.2 billion. The analyst believes that if Bitcoin stabilizes again at $8,3700, it is expected to rise to the $85,000-$86,000 range; conversely, if it falls below the $81,100 key support, it may test the $79,000-$80,000 level again.

@CryptoMichNL sees this decline as a normal adjustment in an upward trend. Analysts say that once it breaks through the previous high, Bitcoin is expected to advance towards $90,000. From an order book perspective, @TedPillows points out that there is liquidity associated with long positions at $79,500 and $85,000, while liquidity associated with short positions is distributed at $84500 and $87,500. These key prices will be the focus of subsequent price games.

Taken together, despite signs of a short-term market rebound, physical purchase demand and ETF capital flows continue to weaken, making it difficult to completely eliminate market volatility. Without a firm support near $83,700, BTC could risk a further pullback to the $79,000-$80,000 range. Investors should pay close attention to institutional capital trends and breakthroughs in key liquidity ranges.
