Good Morning, Asia. Here’s What’s Making News in The Markets:

Welcome to Asia Morning Briefing, A Daily Summary of Top Stories Durying Us Hours and An OverView of Market Moves and Analysis. For a detailed overview of US Markets, See Coindesk’s Crypto Daybook American.

Crypto’s Largest-Aver Leverage Wipeout Has Left Traders Cautious But Long-Term Capital Intact, Say Analysts in Recent Reports.

Despite The Short-Term Market Chaos from The Largest Ever Crypto Liquidation Event, Both Glassnode and Cryptoquant Argue that Beneath The Surface, Liquidity and Strudual Demand.

Cryptoquant Wrote in a recent Report that While Short-Term Momentum Has Weakened, Large Holders Continue to Acccumulate, and Fiat Liquidity Is Still Building. USDT Suppply Has Grown by Nearly $ 15 Billion in 60 Days, The Fastest Pace Since January, While US SPOT BITCOIN ETFLOWS HAVE CLIMBED TO $ 3.5 Billion.

Glassnode Also Cites This Data Point in Its Weekly Market Pulse, Interpreting This Trend as Evidence that Capital Remains Inside the System Even After Specialskulatory Risk Was Flus.

WHERE The Two Analyses Diverge MOST CLEARLY IS IN TONE AND TIMING.

Glassnode Portrays the Sell-Off As A Structural Purge that Stripped Out Special Excess and Forced Traders Back Into Defensive Positioning. Its Data Show Funding Rates Halved, Perpetual CVDS Turned Negative, and Options Traders Paying Higher Premiums for Downside Protection.

The FIRM SEES THIS AS A Market in Recovery Mode, Digesting Losses and Rebuilding Confidentnce Racher than Preparing for An Immediate Rebound.

Cryptoquant, by Contrast, Reads The Same Market Through A More Constructive Lens.

IT Highlights $ 115,000, The Traders’ On-Chain Realized Price, As The Level to Watch for Renewed Strength. A Sustaned MOVE ABOVE THAT Threshold, the FIRM ARGUES, Could Mark The Start of A New Bullish Phase Supported by Expanding Stablecoin Liquingity and Continued While While Accumulation.

The Differentnce In Outlook Reflects a Broader Divide in Sentiment Across The Market: A CAUTIUS Reset Versus a Potential Inflexion Point.

BOTH FIRMS Paint An Emerging Picture of A Market Transitioning from Excess To Equilibrium. Capital is Still Flowing in Through etfs and Stablecoins, But Positioning Is Defensive, and Confidentnce Needs Time to Rebuild.

WHETHER BITCOIN’S NEXT MOVE IS A REBOUND OR A DRAWN-Out Consolidation Will Depend Levend on Leverage and More On How Quickly That Structural Demand Turns Into Fresh Fresh Risk-Taking.
