Coinbase’s Bitcoin premium has dropped into negative territory for the first 
time since May. This development is bearish for the flagship crypto as it 
suggests that demand from the U.S. may be waning. Coinbase Bitcoin Premium In 
The Red CryptoQuant data shows that the Coinbase Bitcoin Premium Index is at 
-0.00254829, marking the first time it has been in the red since May 29, when 
it was at -0.01626105. This Index tracks the difference between the Bitcoin 
price on Coinbase and the Bitcoin price on Binance. It is also used to gauge 
the spot demand for BTC from institutional and retail investors in the U.S.

Bitcoin The Answer? As such, this development suggests that the demand for BTC 
among U.S. investors is currently low. This is significant considering that 
Bitcoin rallies to new highs have coincided with the Coinbase premium being in 
positive territory. This highlights how much demand from the U.S. contributes 
to BTC’s uptrend. In recent times, this demand has mainly come from the 
Bitcoin ETFs, with Coinbase acting as a custodian for eight out of the eleven 
spot BTC funds. Notably, the drop in the Coinbase Bitcoin premium coincides 
with the drop in the net inflows and increase in outflows from these funds. 
SoSo Value data shows that these funds recorded net outflows of $114.83 
million on July 31. Before now, they had also gone on a 3-day streak of 
consecutive net outflows between July 21 and 23. This indicates a wave of 
profit-taking among these investors, especially following the recent Bitcoin 
rally to a new all-time high (ATH) of $123,000. In an X post, CryptoQuant also 
confirmed this wave of profit-taking. The platform revealed that Bitcoin just 
saw its third major profit-taking wave of this bull run. Realized profits 
spiked to between $6 and $8 billion in late July, similar to March and 
December 2024 peaks. CryptoQuant added that it was new whales who led the 
selling above $120,000. New Investor Dominance Is Growing With Market In 
Stable Condition In a CryptoQuant on-chain analysis, analyst Axel revealed 
that new investor dominance is growing and that the market is still stable in 
this late Bitcoin bull cycle phase. He alluded to the demand and supply 
between new and old investors metric and noted that the peaks of 64% in March 
2024 and 72% in December 2024 coincided with local price maximums. Related

analyst noted that during those periods, the influx of new liquidity into 
Bitcoin was exhausted, and old holders began actively taking profits. However, 
this time is different, as the current value of the demand and supply between 
new and old investors is 30%, which is only half of the overheated levels. 
Axel added that the trend is directed upward as the cumulative activity of 
young coins has been steadily growing since July 2024. The analyst remarked 
that this indicates that a notable layer of new buyers is entering the Bitcoin 
market. Meanwhile, pressure from the old holders is not yet critical. At the 
time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $115,550, down in the 
last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from
