BTC Reaches $50K, Market Situation

Market situation

Bitcoin is currently still hovering around $49,000 and the on-chain situation has not changed noticeably.

Although there were times when a large amount of BTC pushed to the floor in the past day, there was a strong buying force to buy BTC. Along with BTC being put on the exchange, there is also a relatively large amount of stable coins being pushed onto the exchange. Deposits and withdrawals on exchanges are still roughly the same.

A share on CryptoQuant by Jan Wuestenfeld about the positive and negative sides of the current market.

On the plus side, the amount of BTC stored by miners has reached a high similar to the peak in May 2021 (figure 1-blue line) and they continue to accumulate to this day. The number of stable coins on exchanges is also at a high level (Figure 2-blue line).

In the situation of positive indicators of miners as well as stable copper, some not-so-good signs were also given. The growth of BTC regular active wallet addresses has not been strong and is even lower than in May (figure 3-blue-red line). Along with that, the number of BTC transactions on the network also did not grow (figure 4-blue-red line). A regular increase in the number of transactions is also a sign of newcomers to the market.

CryptoVizArt’s share shows that the number of BTC on derivatives exchanges decreased similar to the end of 2020 before BTC surged. This shows that BTC shorts are down and the market is more bullish. At the same time, the Funding rate also increased, showing that the number of Long orders has increased more than Short orders.

Although not seeing many BTC pushed to the exchange to take profits, but according to CryptoQuant, the number of profitable BTC is at 86% higher. So in the short term, after BTC rises, a correction is quite possible.
