Last week, the market showed a downward trend, and the technical support level of $85,000 we previously emphasized proved effective. After BTC touched a low of $84,500 on Friday, it began a rebound this week. From both daily and weekly perspectives, the support level of $85,000 was validated after the previous continuous decline. Over the weekend, the market maintained its rebound momentum, showing an overall pattern of fluctuating recovery.
2. Mid- to Short-Term Data Changes Affecting the Market This Week
2.1 Stablecoin Fund Flows
This week (12/20-12/26), the weekly issuance of stablecoins was -$326 million, indicating continued outflow of funds, but the scale of outflow has significantly narrowed. Compared to last week's negative issuance of -$824 million, the average daily negative issuance this week decreased from -$117.7 million to -$46.5 million, representing a 60% increase in overall fund flow. The broader market was mainly volatile this week without sustained declines, which aligns with the trend of reduced stablecoin outflows.
2.2 ETF Fund Flows
This week, the net outflow of Bitcoin ETFs further expanded, reaching $664.37 million, an increase of $374.72 million compared to last week. Based on daily fund flow data, there is no sign of a regular reduction in ETF net outflows yet. Although BTC prices have rebounded, this can only be characterized as a short-term technical rebound. For the market to achieve a trend reversal, the return of Bitcoin ETFs to net inflows is a core prerequisite.
2.3 Off-Market Discount/Premium
This week, the off-market discount/premium rates for USDT and USDC slightly declined. The current USDT discount/premium is 97.86%, and USDC is 98.36%, both at relatively low levels for the year. This phenomenon reflects continued低迷 market sentiment, insufficient off-market funds for bargain hunting, and some signs of capital outflow.
2.4 Ethereum ETF
This week, the net outflow of Ethereum ETFs was -$139.53 million, a significant reduction compared to last week's net outflow of $587.5 million. Ethereum prices showed volatile movements this week without sustained declines, echoing the narrowed ETF outflows. If this trend can be maintained, it will provide strong support for Ethereum's rebound.
2.5 Total Crypto Market Capitalization
This week, the total crypto market capitalization fell to around $3 trillion, precisely touching the weekly EMA100 moving average. The indicator currently shows a weekly oversold signal. Combined with the historical performance of weekly oversold signals since 2021, the market has the potential for a rebound from a technical perspective.
