Glassnode says a sustained move above 75% would be needed to confirm a genuine early bull transition.<\/p>\n<p>The report still treated this as an early conviction rather than a fully validated bull regime.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, the current setup is defined by absorption.

About $4.5 billion of negative dealer gamma sits around $75,000, with $3.9 billion expiring this month.<\/p>\n<div id=\"cs-inline-newsletter-69bbebe9b962f\" class=\"cs-inline-newsletter\" data-inline-newsletter=\"\">\n<div class=\"cs-inline-newsletter__inner\">\n<div class=\"cs-inline-newsletter__content\"> <span class=\"cs-inline-newsletter__eyebrow\">CryptoSlate Daily Brief<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"cs-inline-newsletter__title\">Daily signals, zero noise.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"cs-inline-newsletter__copy\">Market-moving headlines and context delivered every morning in one tight read.<\/p>\n<p> <span><i class=\"fa-regular fa-bolt\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\/> 5-minute digest<\/span> <span><i class=\"fa-regular fa-star\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\/> 100k+ readers<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cs-inline-newsletter__form-shell\">\n<p class=\"cs-inline-newsletter__privacy\">Free.
