Bitcoin Derivatives Flow Shows Early Signs of Market Turnaround

Recent on-chain data indicates a potential turnaround in the Bitcoin Inter-exchange Flow Pulse (IFP), suggesting increased movement of tokens into derivatives platforms.

Key Points

  • The Bitcoin IFP measures BTC flow between spot and derivatives exchanges. An increase suggests rising speculative interest, while a decrease implies reduced risk-taking.
  • The IFP recently hit a low but is showing signs of recovery, indicating renewed speculative activity as Bitcoin's price sees a recovery surge.
  • The metric remains below its 90-day moving average (MA), which historically aligns with bear markets or corrections. A crossover above this MA could signal bullish momentum.
  • Bitcoin's Open Interest on derivatives exchanges has risen by 3.2%, reflecting increased speculative positions as highlighted by analyst Maartunn.

Bitcoin Price Update

  • Bitcoin's price dropped from $95,000 to $91,200 over recent days.
