Dolphins have been the primary accumulator in this cycle, so their demand structure could continue to fuel this bull cycle. Bitcoin’s current price movement continues to raise questions about whether the bull cycle is coming to an end. However, accumulation patterns across different cohorts of BTC investors indicate the cycle is in late-stage maturity, not at a definitive end. According to a report from CryptoQuant, on-chain data shows that although bitcoin’s short-term momentum is weakening, its long-term structural demand remains intact. This is substantiated by accumulation patterns in the dolphin cohort, the investor group comprising exchange-traded funds (ETFs), corporations,…

Opinion by: Rachel Lin, co-founder and CEO at SynFuturesDeFi has come a long way since the boom-and-bust cycle of 2020’s DeFi Summer. Much of the surge in the early days was fueled by experimentation, hype and unsustainably high incentives. Five years on, DeFi’s foundations look very different. The past year’s experimentation is a quiet consolidation phase, setting the stage. 2025 may be remembered as the year when DeFi surpassed centralized exchanges (CEXs).The bear market in 2023 and 2024 washed out many DeFi projects that lacked a product-market fit, and forced other DeFi platforms to mature, focusing on infrastructure and achieving real…

Yet on-chain open interest stands at $15.83 billion, a 12% contraction over the past 30 days, likely related to the Oct. 10 washout.The Oct. 10-11 period delivered the catalyst, following a tariff-driven selloff that produced what CoinGlass termed “the largest liquidation event in crypto history,” wiping out an estimated $19 billion to…

United States Treasury secretary Scott Bessent said on Sunday that the US and China have made “substantial” progress on a trade deal framework, sparking investor hopes of reigniting the bull market. The proposed trade framework will likely remove the need for the 100% additional tariffs announced by US President Donald Trump on October 10, Bessent said. He added:”President Trump gave me a great deal of negotiating leverage with the threat of 100% tariffs on November 1, and I believe we have reached a very substantial framework that will avoid that and allow us to discuss many other things with the…

The Institute for Supply Management’s (ISM) Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) has historically aligned with major peaks in Bitcoin’s market cycles — a pattern that, if repeated, could imply a longer-than-usual cycle this time around.The correlation between the ISM PMI and Bitcoin’s (BTC) price was first popularized by Real Vision’s Raoul Pal and has since gained traction among macro-focused crypto analysts.“All 3 past Bitcoin cycle tops have broadly aligned with this monthly, oscillating index,” analyst Colin Talks Crypto noted, referencing the recurring overlap between Bitcoin’s market highs and the PMI’s cyclical peaks.If that relationship holds, Colin added, “it would indicate…
