What really deserves attention is not the total trading volume, but changes in the spot-to-futures ratio and the distribution of trading volume between major coins and altcoins. Looking only at the total volume can easily lead to being misled by superficial prosperity.

It’s surging so fast that I’m actually a little nervous. The last time we saw this kind of short-term doubling in trading volume was in March last year, and everyone who chased the highs ended up as bagholders. It’s probably best to wait and see this time around.

The market structure has indeed changed. Exchanges used to rely on bots to inflate trading volume, but now more genuine retail investors are entering. At least this shows that the breakout above 80,000 has a grassroots foundation, but when things get too hot, it is all the more important to stay clear-headed.

Ultimately, it still comes down to sustainability: doubling in two days is a sudden market move, while staying at elevated levels for two weeks is a trend. Given the current participant structure, I tend to think leveraged capital is driving this wave.

The interesting part of this data is its divergence from the spot premium: if the volume reflects genuine spot buying, the breakout has support; if it is merely contract wash trading, caution is warranted.

$37 billion looks pretty impressive, but it’s actually nothing special. During previous bull market peaks, daily trading volume easily exceeded $100 billion. This data only shows that the market has just started to recover, so don’t get too excited.

As soon as Bitcoin broke $80,000, retail investors immediately became restless. The doubling of exchange trading volume in five days is the clearest indicator of retail sentiment, but such short-term surges often also mean increased volatility.

First Review

A doubling in trading volume certainly shows that interest has returned, but the key question is whether this volume comes from genuine buying or is piled up through futures contracts. Both longs and shorts are highly sensitive above 80,000.
