Futures activity tells a different story, however, as buyers have clearly taken the upper hand.<\/p>\n<p>The lack of stronger incoming liquidity can also be seen in stablecoin reserves on exchanges, particularly Binance. At the peak of the current cycle, Binance&#8217;s stablecoin reserves reached a new platform record of more than $50 billion. But that trend reversed sharply from October onward, as reserves fell by nearly $7 billion.<\/p>\n<p>During the height of the correction, investor demand contracted so severely that the 90-day change in stablecoin market capitalization held in Binance&#8217;s reserves fell to -17%. Conditions have improved since then, although the recovery remains limited. The 90-day change has climbed back to -1.6%, while Binance&#8217;s stablecoin reserves have increased by $1.6 billion over the past month.<\/p>\n<p>Darkfost <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Darkfost_Coc\/status\/2097764043453010112\">believes<\/a> this is a positive short-term development, but not yet strong enough to signal a meaningful return of liquidity. At the same time, Bitcoin&#8217;s momentum has turned clearly positive, as seen with its daily RSI reaching 67. The 7-day and 21-day EMAs have turned upward as well and crossed back above the 200-day moving average for the first time since November 2025.<\/p>\n<p>The analyst added that a clean move above $80,000 could be the level needed for liquidity to return more decisively.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin&#8217;s bullish setup <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/major-bullish-signal-for-bitcoin-analyst-explains-why-btc-could-explode-soon\/\">remains<\/a> intact as long as BTC holds above $74,000, according to Daan Crypto Trades, but the next major test sits at $83,000. The analyst <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DaanCrypto\/status\/2097939929674203549\">said<\/a> that the market has been moving sideways, creating a compressed setup that could lead to a significant move once either side breaks. A break above $83,000 would strengthen the upside setup and open the door to a larger move, while losing the support would weaken the current bullish bias.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"whats-next\">What&#8217;s Next?<\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin whales have barely <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-whales-remain-on-the-sidelines-ahead-of-chaotic-10-days-whats-coming\/\">changed<\/a> their positions over the past week as they hold around 5.23 million BTC. The lack of meaningful accumulation or distribution comes as markets head into a packed stretch of macro and policy events that could trigger a sharp move.<\/p>\n<p>The first major tests are the US PPI and CPI reports. The latter is likely to carry greater weight as investors reassess expectations for the Federal Reserve&#8217;s next rate decision. Current market odds put the chance of a September rate hike at 60%, despite most economists expecting rates to remain unchanged.<\/p>\n<p>The crypto market also faces a significant political catalyst on September 15, when the Senate is <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/clarity-act-stalls-in-senate-as-political-divisions-push-crypto-bill-into-september\/\">scheduled<\/a> to vote on advancing the CLARITY Act. The following day brings the Fed&#8217;s rate decision, Kevin Warsh&#8217;s press conference, and updated economic projections, before the Bank of Japan closes out the week with its own rate announcement.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoins-btc-rally-looks-strong-but-the-real-money-behind-it-is-still-missing\/\">Bitcoin&#8217;s (BTC) Rally Looks Strong, But the Real Money Behind It Is Still Missing<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoins-btc-rally-looks-strong-but-the-real-money-behind-it-is-still-missing\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bitcoin&#8217;s recent recovery has strengthened considerably, but Darkfost&#8217;s latest findings suggest that liquidity is still lagging behind the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3342,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-46993","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-crypto","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46993","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=46993"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46993\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/3342"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=46993"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=46993"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=46993"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
