Bitcoin surged 12.7% in April, marking its best month since April 2025, driven primarily by leveraged trading in perpetual futures rather than spot buying. This divergence suggests the rally is fueled by speculation and leverage, not fresh demand, which historically leads to price corrections once futures positions unwind. The shift highlights the growing importance of derivatives over spot trading in crypto markets, amid uneven demand and stalled regulatory progress. Investors should be cautious as the rally may lack a solid foundation and could face downside risk if bearish market conditions persist.
