The Coinbase Premium Index measures the price difference of a cryptocurrency between Coinbase and other exchanges. A positive index suggests higher prices on Coinbase, indicating stronger buying from US investors. Conversely, a negative index shows lower prices on Coinbase, reflecting greater selling pressure from that segment. This metric helps identify distinct regional market sentiment and capital movements within digital asset markets.
Context
This index is closely watched for Bitcoin, where a sustained positive value has historically signaled bullish momentum, often driven by American institutional capital. Recent market shifts demonstrate the index reacting to price declines, dipping negative before recovering, which implies periods of accumulation by Coinbase users. Its behavior offers valuable insight into the influence of large US entities on overall crypto price trajectories.
