Commenting, Mark Greenberg, Global Head of Consumer at Kraken said the launch of this staking product in the US is a positiv...

Bitcoin Eyes $108K: Can Bulls Sustain Momentum Against Bearish Signals?

Image
Bitcoin has recently faced a slowdown in its upward trajectory after reaching over $105,000 earlier this week. The cryptocurrency had shown signs of a potential breakout, but key indicators have come into focus as the market evaluates its next move. The latest insights from analysts have raised questions about whether Bitcoin’s market momentum can overcome the resistance level at $108,000, its previous all-time high. Analyzing Bitcoin’s Market Indicators Amid the price performance from BTC, CryptoQuant analyst ShayanBTC has provided insights on the challenges and possibilities ahead for Bitcoin. Shayan noted that despite Bitcoin’s recent price increases, the funding rates—a critical on-chain indicator—have started to decline. This bearish divergence suggests that demand in perpetual markets may be weakening, casting doubt on whether the current bullish momentum is sufficient to push Bitcoin above its all-time high. Particularly, one of the primary hurdles for Bitcoin’s price t...

Trump Effect? Solana Stablecoin Supply Jumps 73% Since Mid-January

Ethereum MVRV Forms Signal That Last Led To 40% Price Crash

Image
On-chain data shows the Ethereum Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) Ratio has just seen a signal that could prove to be bearish for ETH’s price. Ethereum MVRV Momentum Has Witnessed A Bearish Crossover As pointed out by analyst Ali Martinez in a new post on X, the Ethereum MVRV Ratio has declined under its 160-day moving average (MA) recently. The “ MVRV Ratio ” refers to an on-chain indicator that keeps track of the ratio between the Ethereum market cap and the realized cap. The realized cap here is a capitalization model that calculates ETH’s total valuation by assuming that the ‘real’ value of each token in circulation is equal to the spot price at which it was last transferred on the blockchain. Since the last transaction of any coin is likely to correspond to the last point at which it changed hands, the Realized Cap essentially measures the sum of the cost basis of the circulating supply. This model could also be looked at as a representation of the amount of capital the...

Image

Ethereum Positioned For A ‘Major Move Upward’ In 2025, Analyst Forecasts

Image
According to crypto analyst Titan of Crypto, Ethereum (ETH) could be on the verge of a “major move upward” this year as it continues to form higher lows on the weekly chart. However, breaking through the persistent $4,000 resistance level remains a key hurdle for the cryptocurrency, before it goes on to create new highs. Ethereum On The Brink Of A Massive Rally? While frustration may be getting the better of ETH holders due to the digital asset’s below par price performance over the past two years, there could still be a chance to witness a complete turnaround in ETH’s price trajectory. In a post on X, Titan of Crypto shared the following ETH weekly chart, illustrating how the digital asset has been consistently forming higher lows since 2022. If ETH maintains this trend, it could soon break through the crucial $4,000 level and potentially set new all-time highs (ATH) later this year. The analyst also applied Fibonacci extensions to estimate potential price targets, with the most...

Ethereum’s Prolonged Consolidation: What Is Really Going On? Analyst Weighs In

Image
Ethereum performance has lagged behind the broader cryptocurrency market in recent months, with the asset failing to capitalize on the bullish momentum recently seen in the market. While Bitcoin has repeatedly reached new all-time highs, Ethereum has struggled to break past $4,000 and remains well below its 2021 peak of $4,800. Amid this slow recovery, a crypto analyst known as ProjectW has shared insights on the potential for Ethereum’s resurgence, urging investors to consider the long-term picture. In a detailed post on X, ProjectW outlined several factors that could drive Ethereum’s next breakout. The analyst highlighted Ethereum’s years of accumulation within a broad trading range, suggesting that such prolonged consolidation often precedes significant price expansions. Despite the negative sentiment around Ethereum and narratives favoring other networks like Solana, ProjectW emphasized that Ethereum’s long-term upward trend remains intact. A possible retest of the sub-$ 3,...

Bitcoin MPI Crossover Could Suggest Bull Run Still On

Image
On-chain data shows the Bitcoin Miners’ Position Index (MPI) has recently formed a crossover that has historically been bullish for the asset’s price. Bitcoin MPI Has Seen Its 90-Day MA Cross Above The 365-Day As explained by an analyst in a CryptoQuant Quicktake post , the Bitcoin MPI momentum has recently given a bullish signal for Bitcoin. The “ MPI ” refers to an on-chain metric that keeps track of the ratio between the total miner outflow and its 365-day moving average (MA). The miner outflow here is naturally the amount of the cryptocurrency (in USD) that is being transferred out of the wallets associated with the network’s validators. When the value of the MPI is high, it means the miners are making more outflows than usual. Generally, the main reason why this cohort transfers tokens out of its wallets is for selling-related purposes, so this kind of trend can be bearish for the asset’s price. On the other hand, the indicator being low suggests the miners are withdrawing a...

Bitcoin’s Next Move: A Final Leg Up or Just the Beginning? Analyst Weighs In

Image
Bitcoin is showing signs of a gradual recovery following its earlier pullback. After dipping below the $100,000 mark, the cryptocurrency has regained ground, currently trading above $102,000. This represents a 6.3% increase over the past two weeks. Amid this upward trajectory, a CryptoQuant analyst has assessed the patterns of Bitcoin’s realized capitalization and UTXO age bands for clues about what might come next. What the Data Suggests About Bitcoin’s Future IT Tech, a contributor to the CryptoQuant QuickTake Platform, recently shared insights on Bitcoin’s current cycle behavior. According to the analysis, the proportion of younger UTXOs—coins that have moved recently—has begun to rise. Historically, high levels of younger UTXOs have coincided with cycle tops, as seen during the peaks of 2013, 2017, and 2021. Although the current cycle has not yet reached these extreme levels, the increase in younger UTXOs suggests that newer market entrants are becoming more active. Accordi...

Image
Bitcoin has seen a modest recovery after dipping below the $100,000 mark earlier today. At the time of writing, BTC is trading just above $101,000, following a 3.7% decline in the last 24 hours. This recent movement appears to have not only instilled hope in investors but has also caught the attention of analysts now closely monitoring on-chain data and short-term holder behavior to understand the asset’s next potential move and the critical levels to watch. Key Support level for Bitcoin Yonsei Dent, a contributor to CryptoQuant’s QuickTake Platform, has highlighted key metrics indicating that short-term holders (STH) may play a pivotal role in defining Bitcoin’s immediate support levels. In his latest analysis, Dent identified $89,900 as a critical support level for holders who have held BTC for one week to six months . He noted that most short-term holders remain in profit, which reduces the likelihood of a sudden wave of selling pressure. However, Dent also acknowledged that ...

End Of The Road For Bitcoin? Analyst Reveals When Price Will Crash To $50,000

Image
The Bitcoin price has long been celebrated for its explosive growth during bull market periods . However, its cyclic nature, which consists of both a bull and a bear market, often leaves many market watchers unprepared for inevitable crashes.

TradingView analyst Xanrox said in a recent report that BTC’s price will crash to $50,000 in 2026. Analyst Calls For BTC Price Crash To $50,000 The analyst explained that statistically, Bitcoin’s price tends to crash by 77% to 86% every four years.
