Is Bitcoin’s Rally Over? New Insights from CryptoQuant Predict a Market Downturn

Image
According to the latest insight from a CryptoQuant analyst, Bitcoin might be poised for a notable price correction. This possibility of a price correction is based on major Bitcoin metrics such as the Adjusted Spent Output Profit Ratio (ASOPR), signaling a notable implication for Bitcoin’s trajectory. Understanding ASOPR’s Role In Predicting BTC Corrections The ASOPR, a key indicator in the crypto market, measures the profit ratio of spent outputs by comparing the value at which coins were bought to the value at which they were sold. According to the CryptoQuant analyst, when this ratio exceeds 1, it suggests that coins are being sold at a profit, which often correlates with bullish market conditions . However, a critical threshold observed in historical data is when ASOPR approaches 1.08. At this point, the market tends to shift, signaling a potential onset of a correction phase. This pattern has been consistent over several market cycles, providing a valuable tool for investor...

In the graph, the size of the dot corresponds to the number of addresses bought inside the respective range. It appears that Bitcoin currently has large demand zones both just above and below itself.

Memecoin dominance in alt markets is declining. CT would be shifting from gambling to focusing on funda...
