The Coinbase Premium Index has remained weak since the start of the year, suggesting limited buying interest from institutional investors. The indicator measures the price difference between Bitcoin on Coinbase Advanced, widely used by institutional participants, and Binance, the largest global crypto exchange by trading volume. A low or negative premium typically points to stronger selling pressure or weaker demand from large investors. The trend comes amid ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, including trade tensions and geopolitical risks. Unless institutional demand improves, sustained upward momentum in Bitcoin may remain difficult to achieve despite continued activity from retail traders.
