10x Weekly Crypto Kickoff – Are Bitcoin Flows Signaling a Run Toward $120,000 This Week?
The Week Ahead in Crypto Markets
Why this report matters
Crypto markets are entering a critical stretch, with liquidity shifts and derivatives pricing pointing to a potential breakout. Bitcoin’s volatility structure has collapsed at the front end, while longer maturities are steepening—signaling traders see calm now but turbulence ahead. Ethereum tells a different story: downside hedging demand has evaporated, and calls are regaining the premium. At the same time, ETF flows and stablecoin issuance are reshaping positioning under the surface. The data suggests a decisive move is coming.
