- Coinbase Institutional observes market stabilization following November deleveraging.
- Crypto market set for rebound as leverage decreases.
- ETF outflows and open interest shifts signal healthier market structure.
Coinbase Institutional indicated December’s trend might be reshaped due to November’s market turbulence, as BTC, ETH, and SOL saw reduced open interest, spot ETF outflows, and funding rate fluctuations.
The scenario signals a healthier market structure and reduces the likelihood of severe market downturns, fostering optimism in the crypto sector as year-end approaches.
Deleveraging Trends and December’s Optimism
Coinbase Institutional released insights noting market turbulence in November influenced current trends. In a detailed report, it cited a 16% reduction in open interest across BTC, ETH, and SOL perpetual contracts. This is coupled with ETF outflows of $3.5 billion for BTC and $1.4 billion for ETH. The organization indicated that the speculative bubble has deflated significantly, decreasing the systemic leverage ratio from around 10% of the total market value to 4%–5%.
December’s cautiously optimistic outlook marks an expectation of decreased volatility due to improved market structure. Such sentiment stems from an observed rebound post the earlier brief dip in BTC perpetual contract funding rates.
Community response, seen from official Coinbase Institutional posts, suggests recognition of structural improvements. The organization projects healthier outcomes due to less systemic risk, guided by CEO Brian Armstrong’s regulatory and macroeconomic commentary on their X account.
