Weak US Demand Pressures Bitcoin Market

Market data suggests that demand from US-based investors remains soft. The Coinbase Premium Index has stayed near monthly lows, signaling weaker buying activity from US traders compared to international exchanges.

Despite weak US demand, Binance traders have reportedly been stepping in on dips, helping stabilize price action. Some market participants also point to whale accumulation patterns during periods of negative Coinbase premium, which historically have sometimes coincided with longer term buying phases rather than continued downside.
