Bitcoin Demand Is Stuck
Bitcoin’s consolidation could be due to the lack of intense individual and institutional demand, Ki Young Ju, the CEO of the crypto analytics platform CryptoQuant, wrote on X.
According to Young Ju’s X post, Bitcoin’s apparent demand, an indicator showing the difference between BTC’s mining issuance and the change in supply inactive for a year, has significantly decreased since reaching an ATH of $109,000 in January 2025.
The chart shows that spikes in Bitcoin’s apparent demand have been associated with strong bullish momentum. In the current situation, a price consolidation would be expected unless a major catalyst pushes the BTC price.
According to CoinMarketCap , Bitcoin is down by 1.2% in the past 24 hours and is trading around $82,300 at the time of writing. The BTC daily trading volume also decreased by $22%, reaching $29 billion.
