CryptoQuant analyst Amr Taha noted that a major Bitcoin whale inflow to a certain CEX platform first fell below $3 billion; the market value of long-term holders recovered to $49 billion, while short-term holders fell to -$54 billion.

CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost says the Bitcoin market is entering an early stabilization phase, with stronger long-term holding behavior.

From 01:30 to 01:45 (UTC) on 2026-04-12, the BTC price saw significant volatility within the 71,560.0–73,017.1 USDT range. The candlestick return rate recorded -1.75%, and the amplitude reached 2.00%. During this period, market attention increased, the trading atmosphere clearly became more cautious, and heightened volatility triggered short-term capital vigilance. The primary driving force behind this unusual move is the continued deterioration of liquidity in the derivatives market: CME futures open interest fell to a 14-month low, and institutional arbitrage capital accelerated its withdrawal.
