  • Bitcoin Shows Signs of Stability as Institutions Favor Hedging, Coinbase and Glassnode Report
    January 27, 2026, 8:55 PM EST. Bitcoin is entering a more stable and resilient phase, according to a joint report by Coinbase Institutional and Glassnode.

Institutional investors now prefer options hedges over leveraged futures, signaling defensive positioning. On-chain data reveal redistribution by long-term holders rather than forced selling, suggesting a disciplined market structure. Coinbase's Global M2 Money Supply Index indicates near-term support, although growth may moderate later. Investor sentiment has shifted from optimism to caution since October, aligning with macroeconomic uncertainties and subdued market dynamics. The report underscores a shift toward durability over speculative momentum in Bitcoin's outlook.
