Recently, the outflow of Binance stablecoins has surged, and market sentiment is weak, which may affect the trend of Bitcoin, especially during the typical correction period after the halving.

Increase in Stablecoin Outflows

According to data from CryptoQuant analyst Dark Fost, the inflow of Binance stablecoins drastically decreased from $13 billion in November to $310 million in early January outflows. This change is similar to the sluggish period of the Bitcoin market last summer, reflecting tense market sentiment. Fost points out that a decrease in stablecoin inflows typically means weakened purchasing power, while an increase in outflows may indicate a larger transformation in the market, with investors becoming more cautious.

Risk Aversion and Market Caution

High inflation in the U.S. and the Federal Reserve's hawkish policies have intensified market caution, potentially limiting the rise of risk assets. Recently, the U.S. government was authorized to sell Bitcoin seized from Silk Road, which has also exacerbated market uncertainty.

The dominance of Tether (USDT) continues to rise, which has a negative correlation with Bitcoin's price, further deepening market concerns about risk assets.

Bitcoin Outlook: Correction or Downtrend?

Some analysts, such as Peter Brandt, warn that if Bitcoin falls below $90,000, it may drop to $75,000. Although USDT's dominance may affect Bitcoin's rebound, there is still uncertainty about whether it will break through the 4% dominance.

However, Benjamin Cowen and CoinDesk analyst James Van Straten believe that the recent drop in Bitcoin aligns with the typical correction in January after the halving, and the market may soon recover upward.

Summary

Although the increase in Binance stablecoin outflows and market caution may pose pressure on Bitcoin's short-term outlook, analysts generally believe this is just a normal correction after the halving, and investors should pay attention to the market's recovery in the coming months. Currently, Bitcoin's price remains stable above $94,000, and future trends are yet to be observed.
