Bitcoin je porastao na 74.000 dolara, a taj rast je potaknut od strane američkih institucija, dok "premium" cena na berzi Coinbase ukazuje na to

Data shows the Bitcoin Coinbase Premium Gap spiked as the asset rallied toward $74,000, a potential sign that the platform’s institutional users were backing the run.

Bitcoin’s Coinbase Premium Gap Shot Up To $61 During The Rally

In a new thread on X, CryptoQuant community analyst Maartunn has talked about the latest BTC rally and what could be behind it. “Several data points show aggressive institutional demand driving the breakout,” noted Maartunn. One such metric is the Coinbase Premium Gap.

This indicator measures the difference between the Bitcoin price listed on Coinbase (USD pair) and that on Binance (USDT pair). The metric’s value essentially tells us about the difference in buying/selling behaviors on the two cryptocurrency exchanges.

Coinbase hosts an American-centric traffic, with institutional entities being among its main customers, while Binance is used by traders from around the globe. As such, when the Coinbase Premium Gap is positive, it can be a sign that the US-based institutions are applying a higher buying pressure (or lower selling pressure) than the world users.

Earlier, the indicator had a notable red value, suggesting that the asset was trading at a discount on Coinbase, but recently, it has seen a shift into positive.

From the above chart, it’s visible that the Bitcoin Coinbase Premium Gap saw a sharp increase alongside the latest BTC price rally, implying that accumulation on Coinbase drove the asset to a higher value than the global market. At the peak of this surge in the positive territory, the indicator hit a value of $61. “That means BTC traded $61 higher on Coinbase vs other exchanges, a strong signal of U.S. institutional buying pressure entering the market,” explained the analyst.

Another factor that points toward institutional involvement in the rally is Hyblock data. As is visible in the graph below, Hyblock shows a rise in Time-Weighted Average Price (TWAP) orders from the $10,000 to $1 million cohort.

A TWAP order is a trading algorithm that divides a large order into smaller pieces, executing them at regular time intervals. “TWAP orders are typically used by large players accumulating without moving the market too aggressively,” said Maartunn. The $10,000 to $1 million cohort purchased $750 million worth of Bitcoin via such orders alongside the rally.

While institutions have shown demand, the analyst has warned of a risk brewing below the surface: the increasing amount of leverage in derivatives markets.

As displayed in the chart, the Open Interest, an indicator tracking the total amount of derivatives positions, has rapidly gone up for both Bitcoin and the altcoins. “If supportive bids slow down, overleveraged positioning can unwind quickly, increasing volatility,” noted Maartunn.
