Coinbase’s Bitcoin premium has dropped into negative territory for the first time since May. This development is bearish for the flagship crypto as it suggests that demand from the U.S. may be waning. Coinbase Bitcoin Premium In The Red CryptoQuant data shows that the Coinbase Bitcoin Premium Index is at -0.00254829, marking the first time it has been in the red since May 29, when it was at -0.01626105. This Index tracks the difference between the Bitcoin price on Coinbase and the Bitcoin price on Binance. It is also used to gauge the spot demand for BTC from institutional and retail investors in the U.S. Related Reading: Finance Author Warns Of Great Depression Style Crash, Is Bitcoin The Answer? As such, this development suggests that the demand for BTC among U.S. investors is currently low. This is significant considering that Bitcoin rallies to new highs have coincided with the Coinbase premium being in positive territory. This highlights how much demand from the U.S. contributes to BTC’s uptrend. In recent times, this demand has mainly come from the Bitcoin ETFs, with Coinbase acting as a custodian for eight out of the eleven spot BTC funds. Notably, the drop in the Coinbase Bitcoin premium coincides with the drop in the net inflows and increase in outflows from these funds. SoSo Value data shows that these funds recorded net outflows of $114.83 million on July 31. Before now, they had also gone on a 3-day streak of consecutive net outflows between July 21 and 23. This indicates a wave of profit-taking among these investors, especially following the recent Bitcoin rally to a new all-time high (ATH) of $123,000. In an X post, CryptoQuant also confirmed this wave of profit-taking. The platform revealed that Bitcoin just saw its third major profit-taking wave of this bull run. Realized profits spiked to between $6 and $8 billion in late July, similar to March and December 2024 peaks. CryptoQuant added that it was new whales who led the selling above $120,000. New Investor Dominance Is Growing With Market In Stable Condition In a CryptoQuant on-chain analysis, analyst Axel revealed that new investor dominance is growing and that the market is still stable in this late Bitcoin bull cycle phase. He alluded to the demand and supply between new and old investors metric and noted that the peaks of 64% in March 2024 and 72% in December 2024 coincided with local price maximums. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bull Market Is Over? Analyst Calls 50% Crash To $60,000 The analyst noted that during those periods, the influx of new liquidity into Bitcoin was exhausted, and old holders began actively taking profits. However, this time is different, as the current value of the demand and supply between new and old investors is 30%, which is only half of the overheated levels. Axel added that the trend is directed upward as the cumulative activity of young coins has been steadily growing since July 2024. The analyst remarked that this indicates that a notable layer of new buyers is entering the Bitcoin market. Meanwhile, pressure from the old holders is not yet critical. At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $115,550, down in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Pixabay, chart from Tradingview.com

Based on reports, the altcoin market is heating up again and XRP is back in focus. Prices have climbed steadily, and some traders think a fresh wave of buying could push XRP far above current levels. The move in Ethereum and BNB has set the stage. Now everyone is watching whether XRP can follow. Related Reading: Don’t Blink: 1,000 XRP Could Be The Best Move You’ve Made—Expert Tight Range Could Fuel Breakout According to analyst Zach Rector, XRP has been trading in a narrow band just above $3.00. It recently sat around $3.15, giving it room to spring higher. Rector points out that a push above $3.25 could send XRP into the $4–$5 range “any day now.” $4-$5 XRP any day now. $7-$15 by 9/7. pic.twitter.com/75Brfp06pQ — Zach Rector (@ZachRector7) July 27, 2025 That jump would be about a 50% gain from today’s price. He even marks out a window from August 23 to September 7 for a bigger run toward $7 or higher. Ethereum’s surge is helping set the tone. Its price has climbed to about $3,940 while the market cap hit nearly $500 billion. BNB also made a splash, topping $850 for the first time. Those moves often drag other coins upward, and many believe XRP is next in line. Fibonacci Projections Based on weekly charts shared by Tony Edward of the Thinking Crypto Podcast, XRP has clear Fibonacci levels ahead. His targets range from $4.5 to $9.1. Those marks match up with Rector’s range, lending more weight to the idea that XRP is setting up for a big move. If XRP follows those lines, each level could act as a stepping stone. While Fibonacci is just one method, its overlap with Rector’s targets creates a story that traders can follow. It gives them clear numbers to watch and simple goals to aim for as the market moves. Related Reading: XRP ETF Approval Incoming? Analyst Eyes September-October Window Anything Can Happen Other market observers take a different take. They look back at XRP’s past rallies and figures current cycles could average out to about $20 per coin. In 2017, XRP rose a whopping 2,500%, which would imply a $30 peak today. In 2021 the altcoin jumped 500%, pointing to $7.70 as we speak. By averaging those two, a $20 target for this season could be on their crosshair. Even with bullish charts, risks are still there. Regulatory news around Ripple and the SEC can send prices tumbling overnight. If Bitcoin cools off or global markets turn sour, altcoins like XRP could get hit hard. Big holders also have power.
