BlockBeats News, February 15 — CryptoQuant analyst @AxelAdlerJr stated that the Bitcoin basis (7-day simple moving average) has fallen back into the neutral zone as the premium between spot and futures narrows significantly.
He pointed out that this change indicates the demand for establishing long positions through derivatives is weakening, and the market is no longer pricing in an aggressive risk appetite scenario. Typically, this suggests a decline in risk appetite, the start of deleveraging, and investors shifting to a wait-and-see stance.
Axel Adler Jr believes that the derivatives market has not been able to continue driving prices higher. If bulls want to regain momentum, they will need stronger spot buying support.

If you were stranded on a deserted island, would having a trillion dollars in your bank account be useful? The answer is that a bowl of hot soup is more useful than those numbers!
Elon Musk said in an interview that many people think that the economy = money, but they are completely wrong. Money is just a "database" used to record and exchange goods and services; it has no inherent power.
Even if you own all the Bitcoin in the world, you would still starve on a deserted island. What can truly save your life is always that bowl of hot soup, that piece of clothing. Real economy is tangible goods and services, not the numbers bouncing in your account. Money is just a tool, not the goal.
