Ist Bitcoin noch 21 Tage von einer echten Bullenmarktrallye entfernt? Es häufen sich Shorts, aber die Spot-Nachfrage geht zurück
Burns Brief
Bitcoin steckt in einer Pattsituation zwischen Händlern und Kapital fest. Die Nachricht hat die Marktteilnehmer verunsichert: Bären versuchen, die Preise nach unten zu drücken, während Bullen versuchen, wichtige Unterstützungsniveaus zu verteidigen. Beobachten Sie die Reaktion von $BTC $NEAR – eine entscheidende Bewegung über oder unter Schlüsselniveaus wird den nächsten Trend bestätigen.
Bitcoin is stuck in a stand-off between traders and capital. Derivatives markets are still paying investors to stay short, even as spot buyers and ETF flows quietly push back. Bitcoin is approaching a point where the market may have to choose between two very different outcomes. Traders are still paying to stay short, yet price, ETF flows , and market leadership are no longer behaving as if the market were stuck in a collapse. In a recent X post , Alphractal analysts argued that Bitcoin funding rates had reached their most negative level since 2023 and said its proprietary models were pointing to a possible local bottom.

In the chart below, the sentiment index falls into deep troughs around earlier cycle washouts, including the 2015 bear-market bottom, the late-2018 capitulation, and the 2022 low. The latest reading shows the indicator back in that same lower band, which supports the broader argument that market positioning has again reached an unusually stressed level.

Other market data tells a similar story. Crypto.com said the seven-day average funding rate fell to roughly -0.008% on April 18, the weakest reading since 2023, while Glassnode said negative funding persisted even as Bitcoin stabilized and spot conditions improved. That leaves the market in an unusual state. Bitcoin may be emerging from a positioning washout that can support a tradable rebound, or the same macro pressures that drove the drawdown may still be strong enough to force one more deeper leg lower.
