CryptoQuant: Bitcoin dey face structural sell pressure as exchanges dey bleed
CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. tok say di crypto market still dey for risk-off zone dis week, even though dem don absorb SpaceX IPO and e ease some policy-related pressure. Cross-asset attention rise after SpaceX market cap briefly pass Bitcoin.
For Bitcoin, di rebound from about $60,000 low dey look like repair phase, but structural sell pressure still dey. Exchange data show net outflows of about -20.9K BTC dis week, meaning di ongoing selling pressure never fully clear. Di short-term bounce na mainly driven by short-covering as accumulated short positions from di past month dey liquidate, giving temporary support.
Miner-side pressure don start show small. Overall, di market dey transition with both deleveraging and "repair" together, and risk appetite never clearly flip back to positive—keeping downside vulnerability for Bitcoin if outflows and deleveraging continue.

Bearish
Main point di article na be say persistent structural sell pressure dey pon Bitcoin despite say e rebound. Di key bearish datapoint na exchange net outflows of about -20.9K BTC, wey normally align wit continued distribution (sell/relocate comot from exchanges). If di bounce dem dey attribute mainly to short-covering and liquidation, e show say di upside fit short-lived; once di short-covering impulse go fade, di underlying selling pressure fit come back.
Dis resemble previous "risk-off + exchange outflows" episodes weh rallies dem just mechanical because of positioning resets no be fresh spot demand. For dis kind setup, traders dey often see whipsaws: spike for liquidations then consolidation or another drawdown if outflows dey persist.
Short-term impact: volatility fit remain elevated, wit rebounds fit dey capped till net outflows slow down and risk appetite improve.
Long-term impact: if miner-side pressure continue and deleveraging extend, market fit struggle to move from repair to sustained uptrend, keeping Bitcoin vulnerable to renewed downside when macro risk-off happen.
