Bitfinex reports that Bitcoin has experienced a consecutive five-month decline since 2025, marking the first occurrence of a "five consecutive down" structure since 2018, with a monthly drop of 14.93% in February and a maximum cumulative drawdown of approximately 52.34%. However, early signs of market recovery have emerged in March.

Data shows that since March 1, approximately $3.2 billion in BTC has been systematically purchased at market price across exchanges, successfully reclaiming the $65,000 level; the Coinbase premium index has ended its continuous 40-day negative value and turned positive, indicating a return of U.S. spot buying. The derivatives structure also remains relatively healthy: open interest has risen to $53.1 billion, a 15.4% increase from Sunday’s close, but the perpetual funding rate is only about 9.5% APR, showing no signs of overheating. Open interest and spot have expanded in sync, reflecting that this round of increase is more driven by spot absorption.

Regarding ETFs, the U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF recorded approximately $1.1 billion in net inflows last week, with a total of over $450 million on Monday and Tuesday, indicating that institutional demand remains a core support. Analysts believe that if key support holds, Bitcoin may recover to the $80,000-$85,000 range in the next 1-3 months; in the short term, attention should be paid to the $72,000-$74,000 area of concentrated short liquidations and the potential dynamic support at $66,000. The overall judgment remains cautiously bullish.
