Bitcoin’s recent rally pushed the cryptocurrency to re -test the $ 122,000 level before being confronted with a withdrawal. At the time of writing, BTC acts at around $ 119,053, which marks a short -term correction after recovering significant highlights earlier in the week.
The move comes when traders and analysts are closely monitored for signs of market strength or weakness at the current price levels. A metric attention is the share of Binance in global trade volume.
According to Cryptoquant analyst Borisvest, the dominance of the trade fair in commercial activity offer Valuable context for interpreting Bitcoin performance on all-time highlights (ATHS).
By comparing the volume distribution between exchanges during previous ATH periods, the analysis strives to determine whether the wider market is participating in the rally or whether the activity is concentrated on a single platform.

Bitcoin exchange volume concentration and market signals
The assessment of Borisvest showed that during the first ATH in 2024 the global market volumes were increased and the trading activity of Binance was more than double of all other stock markets together.
When Bitcoin withdrew his ATH later that year, the total market volumes increased on several platforms, but Binance maintained his lead in the total trade share.
When Bitcoin established a new record in mid -2025, the total market volume, on the other hand, did not show any significant increase compared to earlier rallies. While Binance still registered the trade volume of other exchanges combined almost twice, the absence of a broader expansion of the market volume was concerned.
The analyst noted that historically, ATHS supported by broad volume growth tends to indicate a stronger market conduction. A lack of participation of other exchanges may indicate potential challenges in supporting higher prices in the coming months.
Patterns on the chains suggest the progress of the gradual market
In a separate researchCryptoquant Analyst avocado Onchain investigated binary coin days destroyed (CDD), a metric tracking of the movement of long -floating coins. The indicator recently became lower after a short rise, with the price trade of Bitcoin within a lateral reach.
Historically, the increase in binary CDD is linked to the long -term sales pressure, often leading to corrections. The current market conditions, formed by changes in detention solutions, freely available trading activity and institutional investment strategies, make the interpretation of CDD peaks more complex.
Avocado Onchain emphasized that in recent Cycli binary CDD increases were followed by long -term sideways trade or moderate corrections.
The current data supports what the analyst describes as a “stair -step” rally, where the market gradually improves when cooling speculative activity in the short term. This pattern can, if sustained, prevent a rapid exhaustion of buying Momentum and making it possible for a more stable growth growth in the long term.

Other data on the chains suggest that the sale of long -term holders remains modest, which indicates limited pressure to leave positions at the current price levels.
This is in line with the view that although movements can be in the short term, the broader trend still has the potential for future up, depending on broader participation and persistent investor question.
