Bitcoin price formation shifts as derivatives volumes outpace spot trading

Bitcoin's price is now more heavily influenced by derivatives markets than by spot trading, according to CoinGlass. The report notes that futures, perpetual swaps, and options account for most trading activity, with derivatives volumes consistently exceeding spot across rallies and corrections. As a result, short-term price direction is increasingly driven by leverage, positioning, and hedging behavior rather than direct spot buying or selling.
