This Blockchain Indicator Might Show Bitcoin Rally Has Legs
Bitcoin’s price has nearly doubled this year, but the rally could have room to run. That’s based on a new report by Coin Metrics, a cryptocurrency data firm, which shows bitcoin (BTC) is not at an extreme relative to the previous market top in 2018.
The MVRV ratio is a measure of bitcoin’s market value relative to its realized value. The gauge represents the difference between the cryptocurrency’s current price and the average price at which bitcoins were acquired. When it reaches an extreme, the thinking goes, traders might be inclined to take profits, creating sell pressure that could push price down.
- The near 20% bitcoin sell-off from an all-time-high around $60,000 last week triggered a decline in the MVRV ratio to 0.88.
- “Historically, the periods that MVRV has dropped below 1.0 have been some of the best times to invest in BTC,” according to Coin Metrics.
- The MVRV indicator reached an extreme around 4 in 2018, and near 6 in 2014, just prior to the start of bear markets.

Bitcoin Could Hit $115K by August, Pantera’s Morehead Writes
“Bitcoin is now ahead of our April 2020 forecast schedule – to hit $115K this summer,” wrote Dan Morehead, CEO and co-chief investment officer at Pantera Capital, a blockchain hedge fund, in an emailed newsletter. The Pantera prediction is based on the stock-to-flow model – an analytical framework that values an asset’s price based on its annual issuance schedule. The model measures the scarcity of bitcoin (BTC), which is governed by the underlying network programming coded into the blockchain’s design when it was launched 12 years ago. Under that plan, the number of…

Why Bitcoin Buyers Should Beware of Unregulated Exchanges
There are many reasons to be optimistic about the future of cryptocurrency.

Ethereum also became the first blockchain to settle $1 trillion in a single year. In short, it was a good year. And yet for all the rampant positivity, there remains an 800lb elephant in the crypto room:…

WEB3.0 major milestone: ADDAO blockchain advertising technology platform is about to be officially launched!
