Which coins are currently exposed to quantum risk at rest?
In our latest research, we quantify Bitcoinβs exposed supply and separate exposure into two categories:
β’ Structural exposure: 1.92M BTC (9.6%) coins exposed by design
β’ Operational exposure: 4.12M BTC (20.6%) linked to wallet behavior, address reuse, and custody practices.
β· The larger share is operational, suggesting that part of Bitcoinβs visible exposure may still be reduced through improved wallet and custody management.
β· Exchange-related balances alone account for 1.63M BTC (8.1% of issued supply).

BTC remains structurally resilient, but weakening spot demand, slowing ETF inflows, and increasingly crowded long positioning suggest upside momentum is cooling beneath the surface.
Executive Summary
- BTC reclaimed True Market Mean at $78.3k but couldn't hold. History suggests weeks to months of consolidation needed before a bull transition.
- 30D SMA of Realized P/L Ratio jumped from 0.4 to 1.8 during the rally. Needs a sustained move above 2 to confirm real buy-side recovery.
- 30D cost basis at $78.2k flipped from support to resistance. The Feb-April cohort at $71.4k is the next support floor.
- Spot internals have weakened. Aggregate Spot CVD stays negative and Coinbase lags, pointing to softer US institutional demand.
- CME Futures OI keeps recovering with price, showing better institutional participation in derivatives.
- US Spot ETF inflows are slowing, leaving futures to drive positioning as spot demand fades.
- Options positioning stays defensive. Skew shows demand for downside hedges, and

BTC has recovered above $80K as ETF inflows, spot demand, and positioning improve. However, weaker capital inflows and heavy overhead supply near $86K keep conviction below prior bull phases.

Shallow drawdown β Relative Unrealized Loss peaked at 25% in February, now compressed to 8%; bear regime stays shallow if $60K holds

β Support at $76.9K (30-day cost basis), resistance at $86.9K (Nov-Feb accumulation range)
β Coinbase Spot Volume Delta flipped sharply positive over the last two weeks
β Hyperliquid traders steadily adding long exposure alongside rising prices
β Implied volatility falling across the curve, led by the front end, as realized vol trends lower
β Downside hedging demand fading, options structure more balanced around $80K

The Week On-Chain 18, 2026
Bulls Approach the Ceiling
#BTC pushes beyond $80K toward key resistance near $85K, with bulls in control. ETF demand builds and shorts persist, but overhead supply may cap upside without stronger spot follow-through.
Executive Summary
- Bitcoin has broken above the True Market Mean at $78.2k and Short-Term Holder Cost Basis at $79.1k, with holding above these levels suggesting a short-lived deep value phase and $85.2k as the next key resistance.
- Glassnodeβs Moderate Strategy has re-entered allocation after BTC reclaimed ~$76K, capturing recent upside while maintaining a focus on downside protection.
- Front-end implied volatility has repriced higher following the breakout, while realized volatility lags, rebuilding a positive volatility risk premium.
