Bitcoin's recovery is weakening as 30-day spot demand falls below zero, indicating less direct buying even though exchange reserves have slightly increased from 2.67 million to 2.68 million BTC. This rise in reserves may reflect custody changes rather than selling. While perpetual futures remain in positive demand, this does not translate to strong spot market buying. Different holder groups show mixed behavior: mid-sized holders (100-1,000 BTC) are accumulating, large holders (1,000-10,000 BTC) show reduced selling, and the biggest holders (over 10,000 BTC) continue to reduce holdings. A more sustained recovery would require positive spot demand, buyers absorbing BTC on exchanges, and broader accumulation across holder groups.
