- Sovereign reserves76/100tailwind
6 states hold ~630,180 BTC as reserves; 2 more have announced or proposed legislation. Sovereign demand is structural and policy-led, so it tends to precede flows.
- Network hashrate60/100tailwind
Network hashrate, derived from difficulty (expected, 2016-block epoch), is ~950.0 EH/s, +4.1% over 30 days. Rising hashrate reflects growing miner commitment and network security; sustained trends can precede price (not yet backtested).
- Corporate treasuries56/100tailwind
180 public companies hold ~1,300,009 BTC (top: Strategy, 847,999 BTC). Corporate treasury accumulation is structural institutional demand; the trend strengthens as history accrues. Strategy (MSTR) trades at an observable ~0.762x mNAV — its equity value vs the value of its 847,999 BTC (quote 2026-10-07); reported as a number only, not a valuation judgement.
- Hiring velocity41/100headwind
Tracked Bitcoin/crypto-infra firms have 336 open roles, -21 vs 30 days ago (-5.9%). Teams staff up before they ship and grow; rising hiring may be an early demand tell (predictive value not yet backtested).
