According to the latest data from Coinglass, on January 15th, the Bitcoin premium index of a leading compliant platform turned positive again, reporting 0.0023%. This is the first time in 8 days that a positive premium has appeared.

In simple terms, this index reflects the difference between Bitcoin prices on that platform and the global market average. It serves as a good window into US capital flows, institutional enthusiasm, and market sentiment.

When the premium is positive, it indicates that the platform's price is outperforming the global average—usually signaling several things: first, buying pressure in the US is really picking up, with institutions and compliant funds actively accumulating; second, US dollar liquidity remains relatively sufficient; third, investor sentiment is somewhat optimistic. Conversely, when a negative premium appears, it warrants reflection—it means selling pressure is mounting, risk appetite is declining, risk-averse sentiment is spreading, and there may even be capital outflows.

The shift from an 8-day negative premium to a positive one may reflect a quiet improvement in the US market's attitude toward Bitcoin, especially against the backdrop of macro data like core CPI easing. The market's appetite for risk assets seems to be returning. This transition warrants ongoing observation.

The 8-day negative premium finally turned positive. The Americans are really starting to buy again.

8-day negative premium rebound, are US institutions starting to get restless again? This rhythm is a bit interesting

8 days of negative premium turning positive, are the Americans starting to build positions again? Or are they just trying to trick us into entering the market?

8 days to become a full member? US funds are finally willing to step in, this is getting interesting. Institutions are quietly building positions, the CPI easing signal is still noticeable. Wait, the premium is only 0.0023%, is that called a positive? I feel like it's still on the floor. The last rate cut window of the Federal Reserve, everyone who wanted to buy the dip has probably done so. It's really just about the US's attitude, what about the money from other regions? How many days can this rebound last? I can't bet it will last more than three days before turning negative again. Most of the current entrants are probably trying to unload positions for those who bought at high prices at the end of the year.

Wait, has the premium turned positive? That would really indicate that the US side is buying. I thought the negative premium over the past 8 days meant it was going to decline. --- Institutions are quietly accumulating positions. We need to keep a close eye on this signal. --- Honestly, I’m skeptical about the CPI easing. We need to observe for a few more days. --- Sufficient USD + sentiment recovery, this combination sounds pretty good. --- Just turn positive if it turns positive. Anyway, the premium index fluctuates really quickly. --- Huh, a signal of capital inflow? Then I need to see how long this can last. --- US buyers are finally willing to make a move. Actions by compliant funds have always been a barometer. --- 0.0023%—that number looks a bit surreal, but at least it’s positive.

These 8 days from negative to positive, it seems the Americans are really starting to accumulate chips again. The feeling that institutions are quietly building positions, but this 0.0023% positive premium is a bit fake. Can it hold? Wait, is it so happy to be optimistic just because CPI has eased? Be careful of the rebound trap, everyone. To be honest, turning the premium positive doesn't mean the bottom, but it really depends on how the dollar liquidity is doing.
