According to on-chain and exchange flow analysis shared by CryptoQuant, Bitcoin’s market structure is showing early signs of sentiment stabilization, with Binance’s 7-day Net Taker Flow shifting meaningfully in recent sessions.
When placed within broader cycle context, the data suggests that aggressive sell pressure is beginning to compress after a prolonged bearish phase.
Crypto markets tend to move through distinct expansion and contraction cycles. During bearish conditions, aggressive market sell orders dominate, pushing net taker flow deeply negative as risk appetite contracts. As that pressure exhausts, the imbalance narrows before buyers gradually regain control.
In early February, Binance recorded nearly -$4.9 billion in cumulative net selling through taker flow. Since then, the 7-day metric has steadily recovered and flipped positive to approximately +$0.32 billion.
The sentiment ratio, previously around -3%, has now moved back into positive territory. This transition signals a decline in sell-side aggression and increasing absorption by taker buyers. Daily sell dominance has weakened, while buy-side activity is stabilizing order books.
Bitcoin’s price has remained anchored in the mid-$60,000 range during this transition, suggesting that liquidity is being absorbed rather than overwhelmed.
When compared to aggregated exchange data, the recovery in net flow is not isolated. However, Binance shows a stronger shift toward positive buying pressure relative to peers. This implies that recent volatility was likely part of broader crypto market cyclicality rather than exchange-specific stress.
Given Binance’s liquidity depth, directional positioning often consolidates there first during sentiment shifts. Flow stabilization on the largest venue can therefore act as an early signal of broader market normalization.
Sustained negative taker flow typically aligns with late-stage distribution and capitulation phases. The recent compression of cumulative sell volume and the move back into positive net flow suggest that the market may be entering an early-stage stabilization phase.
Across prior Bitcoin cycles, exchanges demonstrating relative flow normalization have often marked turning points in sentiment. While confirmation requires persistence in positive flow and broader spot participation, current data supports a narrative of declining selling pressure and gradually strengthening demand within the ongoing cycle framework.
