Retail investors disappeared as quickly as they appeared!

An analysis of the 30-day change in retail demand (transactions from $0 to $10K) provides valuable insights into the behavior of this category of investors.

As BTC approached $100K, the change in retail demand increased by over 30%.

Historically, when the change exceeds 15%, it often precedes a local maximum. This is exactly what we saw after BTC reached a new record of $108K.

After a small correction, demand fell sharply to -16%.

When the change drops below -10%, it indicates a significant decrease in interest, which often creates an ideal buying opportunity, as growth often follows.

However, these observations should be viewed in context, as a weighted increase in retail demand remains a positive sign for the market.
