Bitcoin holds $81K amid flat derivatives markets: Is rally sustainable?

Bitcoin carved a path toward $82,000, but derivatives metrics need another push from bulls to sustain the rally.
Key takeaways:
Bitcoin (BTC) gained 7% over the past week, breaking above $81,000 for the first time in over three months. Despite the strong price performance, data suggests that Bitcoin derivatives lack optimism from investors and this raises questions on the rally’s sustainability.
Macroeconomic and several onchain metrics point to softening demand.
