Bitcoin Future Market Indicates Positive Trend as Short Contract Liquidations Prevail

Despite a recent decrease in price, Bitcoin's futures market shows a bullish trend, suggesting the cryptocurrency may be preparing for another upward surge, even as leveraged traders are eliminated in liquidation cascades. Market analyst Axel Adler Jr. points out that the predominance of short-contract liquidations indicates buyer strength in the futures market.

Meanwhile, institutional investment appears to be growing amid short-term volatility. Jamie Coutts, the chief crypto analyst at Real Vision, emphasized the asset’s increasing hash rate as a key indicator of network strength and long-term resilience. However, retail interest remains lukewarm, with the search volume for “Bitcoin” dropping after the post-election surge, implying that the current cycle is largely driven by institutions.
