Bitcoin Demand Turns Positive for First Time in 3 Months

Bitcoin’s apparent demand has flipped back into positive territory for the first time in three months.

The 30-day sum of apparent demand, which measures net accumulation relative to new supply, has moved above zero after a prolonged stretch of negative readings.

What “Apparent Demand” Measures

This metric tracks the balance between newly mined BTC and the change in supply held by long-term investors.

  • Negative readings suggest distribution or weak absorption.
  • Positive readings indicate that accumulation is outpacing new issuance.

After months of consistent red bars, the chart now shows a shift into green, signaling renewed net buying pressure.

Why This Matters

Sustained negative demand often coincides with corrective phases or consolidation periods. A reversal into positive territory can signal improving structural conditions beneath the surface.

It does not guarantee immediate upside, but it suggests that selling pressure may be stabilizing while buyers begin absorbing available supply.

Early Signal or Temporary Bounce?

The key question now is whether this positive reading continues expanding or fades back into negative territory.

If demand strengthens alongside price stability, it could mark the early stages of a broader recovery phase. If it weakens again, it may simply reflect short-term repositioning.

For now, the data confirms a notable shift: Bitcoin demand is no longer contracting, it’s expanding again.
