Bitcoin’s price action in June has been marked by volatility, yet one key indicator is quietly pointing toward strong underlying demand: the Coinbase premium. According to market analyst Daan Crypto Trades, the premium between BTC prices on Coinbase and other exchanges has remained consistently elevated throughout the month.
Treasury Demand Behind the Bid
The persistent premium suggests a steady spot bid originating from Coinbase, likely driven by institutional buyers such as Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy and other Bitcoin treasury entities. While some ETFs have recently recorded outflows, these treasury-based accumulations may be absorbing that excess supply.
Daan notes this accumulation is slowly eating away at available BTC in the $100K+ price zone:
“For every coin changing hands, it’s a bit less supply at this price region.”
Gradual Absorption Reflects Market Maturity
Unlike previous parabolic cycles, this time the demand absorption is occurring in a more measured manner. The analyst emphasizes that as the market matures, supply-demand imbalances unfold more gradually and less explosively. Still, the consistent buying indicates a bullish structural trend, even if short-term price action remains range-bound or choppy.
What the Chart Shows
The included chart from Coinglass shows the Coinbase Bitcoin Premium Index holding firmly in positive territory over the past week, particularly as BTC recently pushed above the $107K mark. This divergence suggests sustained appetite from U.S.-based spot buyers relative to global exchanges.
Conclusion
While short-term volatility persists, the Coinbase premium paints a clear picture of growing institutional demand above $100K. As long as this bid remains in place, it may provide a foundation for Bitcoin to advance higher once existing supply is further depleted.
