Coinbase Predicts Crypto Recovery in December Amid Improved Liquidity

Coinbase Research Report Highlights

  • Coinbase released a report highlighting improved global liquidity at the start of December.
  • The probability of a Federal Reserve rate cut rose to 92% by December 4, potentially boosting risk assets.
  • A reversal in market trends is expected in December following weaker performance in November.

Federal Reserve Policy Impact

  • The Fed's involvement in the bond market may signal the end of quantitative tightening, reducing liquidity pressure.
  • Bitcoin fell over three standard deviations below its 90-day trend in November, indicating undervaluation.
  • Long-term holders distributed coins, and digital asset products traded below net asset value for the first time this year, suggesting a potential recovery.
  • US 10-year bond yield experienced a significant increase, posing challenges for risk-on assets.

Altcoin and Stablecoin Signals

  • Divergence observed between stablecoin dominance and altcoin performance.
  • Stablecoin strength showed signs of fatigue, while altcoins remained steady.
  • If Bitcoin stabilizes, capital may rotate back to altcoins, which could accelerate as liquidity shifts towards higher-risk assets.
