According to Coinglass data, Coinbase’s Bitcoin Premium Index has been in a negative premium zone for 80 consecutive days (since May 19), with the latest reading at -0.0978%. Previously, the index recorded a 40-day consecutive negative premium period from January 16 to February 24 this year, setting the longest such streak since the index’s launch, surpassing the approximately 30 consecutive days of negative premium during the “1011 crash.” Historical data shows that prolonged negative premiums often coincide with U.S. institutional capital outflows, warranting caution regarding potential short-term pullbacks.
