Bitcoin negative premium persists for 19 days, market selling pressure signals are obvious
【Blockchain Rhythm】Recently, a set of data has caught our attention: Bitcoin has been in a state of negative premium on mainstream trading platforms for 19 consecutive days, with the latest reading at -0.1092%. What does this mean?
In simple terms, the premium index is used to compare the price of Bitcoin on a major platform with the average market price globally. This indicator is particularly important because it reflects the capital flow in the US market, institutional enthusiasm, and overall market sentiment.
When the index is in positive premium, it indicates that the platform price is higher than the global average—this usually signals active buying in the US, with institutions and compliant funds entering the market, ample US dollar liquidity, and relatively optimistic sentiment.
Conversely, negative premium suggests the opposite. A price below the global average indicates market selling pressure is accumulating, investors are becoming cautious, risk aversion is rising, and there may even be capital outflows. Maintaining a negative value for 19 days in a row shows that this sentiment has persisted for a while, and the market’s risk appetite is indeed declining.
Funds are fleeing, this needs to be taken seriously.
It's starting again, every time this happens, a wave of retail investors get chopped.
After such a long period of negative premium, are institutions reducing their positions?
The US daddy is no longer buying, we need to be more cautious here.
19 days in a row like this... the atmosphere is getting more and more tense.
Why is there another outflow? Is this a sign of a correction?
People still going all-in at this point are really brave.
With such obvious selling pressure, we need to wait a bit longer for the bottom.
When will the premium reversal happen? That’s the key.
---
Here we go again, institutions have already left, retail investors are still buying at the bottom
---
Wait, is a negative value of -0.1092% really a signal? Feels like an overinterpretation
---
The most annoying thing about the premium theory is the hindsight analysis; when prices fall, they say it's negative premium, when prices rise, no one mentions it
---
19 consecutive days of selling pressure, institutions should have already liquidated, so why hasn't there been a big drop?
---
They've run away in the US, but Asia is still buying, what does that mean?
---
They are really good at making up stories; good data is a positive, bad data is a negative, anyway, the retail investors will be cut anyway
