Express News | Analysis: Bitcoin's apparent demand has improved significantly, but structural accumulation is insufficient to fully absorb new supply.

On August 15, CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost stated in a post that Bitcoin's apparent demand has improved significantly but remains negative, currently standing at -32,000 BTC. When Bitcoin entered its current consolidation range in early June, estimated demand was -272,000 BTC. This represents a positive shift, though it is not yet strong enough. Similar patterns were observed in February and May 2026, after which demand weakened again. This may also be related to a decline in average mining output, as the hashrate has retreated, implying lower production. Therefore, while the current positive momentum is not yet sufficiently robust, this trend warrants close monitoring.
