Bitcoin Price Rally Driven by Strong Buyer Demand and Derivatives Activity

Bitcoin climbed above $79k during the New York trading session yesterday as buying pressure strengthened across both spot and derivatives markets. Onchain data indicates rising demand while exchange held Bitcoin continues to decline, signaling reduced immediate selling pressure.

$BTC still facing resistance on weekly timrframe

According to CryptoQuant, Bitcoin’s cumulative net taker volume on Binance has risen to $9.2 billion, its highest level since February. This metric tracks aggressive buying versus selling in futures markets and suggests buyers are actively absorbing available sell-side liquidity.

CryptoQuant Analyst noted that this shift reflects “renewed conviction from market participants,” adding that sustained demand continues to support a bullish structure as BTC holds higher levels.

Another indicator, the 90-day Futures Taker CVD, has also been rising steadily since late March, showing persistent market buying pressure. Aggressive buyers are consistently hitting ask orders and absorbing supply.

Exchange Supply Drops as Long-Term Holders Accumulate

Bitcoin reserves on Binance have fallen from about 675,000 BTC in January to around 618,300 BTC, indicating tightening supply. Long-term holders have added roughly 130,000 BTC in the past 30 days, reinforcing accumulation trends and suggesting reduced selling pressure in the market.
