Seller Exhaustion Emerges, but Bitcoin Remains at Risk of Further Losses: Glassnode

Main Idea
Bitcoin's rally has paused, showing signs of seller exhaustion and weakened market conditions across spot, futures, and options markets, alongside declining institutional demand for Bitcoin ETFs.
Key Points
1. Bitcoin's momentum has paused after reaching an all-time high, with signs of seller exhaustion but market conditions remain fragile.
2. Spot market indicators show weakened conditions: RSI fell from 47.4 to 35.8 (oversold), spot CVD declined sharply, and spot volume dropped from $8.4B to $7.5B.
3. Futures market data reveals mild position unwinding: open interest slipped from $45.6B to $44.9B, long-side funding fell 33%, and perpetual CVD declined further.
4. Options market shows Bitcoin open interest tumbling 8.4% to $39.8B, with narrowing volatility spread and high demand for downside protection.
5. Bitcoin ETFs have seen four consecutive days of outflows, with net inflows dropping 25% to below $270M, signaling weak institutional demand.
6. On-chain fundamentals were mixed: active addresses rose 3.6%, but transfer volume and fees declined by 13.9% and 14.4%, respectively, indicating quieter network activity.
