More Crypto Market Turbulence Up AheadMeanwhile, theCoinbase Bitcoin Premium Indexreflects the same overly bearish trend. After falling below zero in mid-May, the metric is now at -10%. Coinbase Bitcoin Premium Index (Source: Coinglass)The index measures the price difference between BTC traded on Coinbase Pro and the global market average. It helps analysts determine US capital flows, institutional demand, and market sentiment. Ali Martinez, a prominent technical analyst on X, stated that the metric’s slump in negative territory represents stagnating demand for Bitcoin and a lower price for the asset on Coinbase. He sees it as a result of drying institutional buying pressure in the US amid weeks of BTC and spot BTC ETF capital flight. Martinez expects the market tension to persist as American smart money sits on the sidelines, waiting for a clear macroeconomic indicator of where the market is heading next.
