Bitcoin ‘significantly de-risked here’ as nearly 80% of cyclical price correction is done — Analyst
Bitcoin’s cooling futures market has paved the way for a strong price recovery.
Bitcoin’s (BTC) futures market reflects a possible price cooldown after the cryptocurrency’s multiple weeks of correction. Data from CryptoQuant indicated that the BTC-USDT futures leverage ratio with respect to open interest (OI) has halved since peaking in early 2025.

This significant de-leveraging has occurred because of massive liquidations over the past few weeks, which has effectively taken a majority of traders out of the market. Thus, the current market conditions indicate a healthier market reset, which is not overheated and could potentially pave the way for a steady price recovery.
