Market Dynamics

  • Analysts predict a potential year-end rally for Bitcoin, suggesting it may be forming a base as the Risk-Off Signal declines, indicating reduced selling pressure.
  • Past similar patterns showed a subsequent 47% increase in Bitcoin's value.
  • Swissblock analysts suggest the worst of the selling may be over, with this week being crucial for monitoring selling behavior.

Holder Activity

  • Long-term holder wallets show significant selling, typical during strong market phases when early investors secure gains.
  • Short-term holders are entering the market, absorbing coins sold by long-term holders, often during rapid market movements.
  • According to CryptoQuant, this influx doesn't necessarily indicate an immediate drop but suggests increased market supply, potentially leading to further pullbacks or stable prices if demand doesn't match supply.
