Bitcoin nears $82,000 resistance as spot demand holds and on-chain activity softens

Bitcoin is testing the $82,000 area as spot demand continues to absorb supply with daily volume between $4.2 billion and $4.5 billion. Derivatives positioning has expanded, with Futures Volume above $50 billion and aggregate Open Interest near $60 billion, while Active Addresses slid toward 707,720. The setup leaves BTC vulnerable to profit-taking if spot demand and ETF inflows—still above $59.8 billion cumulatively—fail to stay supportive near resistance.
