On February 10, Glassnode released its weekly market report noting Bitcoin had rebounded from $60k to $69k—but while on-chain transaction volume has expanded, it remains low. This signals easing selling pressure but cautious buyer participation, reflecting frequent market turnover post-downturn reassessment rather than strong dip buying. Off-chain indicators point to strong defensive positioning in futures and options. ETF trading volume surged to a high of $45.5 billion, though fund outflows have slowed, and overall risk appetite remains subdued. On-chain fundamental activity has strengthened, but capital inflows are negative, with unrealized losses dominating the supply. A sustained market recovery may hinge on a rebound in spot demand to stabilize prices above recent lows.
