What does CryptoQuant mean by bitcoin demand contraction?

It's on-chain speak for fewer buyers than sellers — exchanges filling up, holders offloading. Bad for price.

Will bitcoin bounce to $71,500 if U.S.-Iran conflict eases?

Maybe short-term. But sustained demand's needed, or it's a dead cat.

Yes — metrics like coin days destroyed and exchange inflows confirm it. Not FUD; facts.

Your BTC stack's not imagining it — demand's shriveling up, per CryptoQuant. But a geopolitical thaw might fling prices to $81K. Or not.
