The CryptoQuant founder has shared a model for Bitcoin that suggests the cryptocurrency’s maximum price could lie around $135,000 right now. Bitcoin Model Established On Realized Cap Could Reveal Price Ceiling & Floor In a new post on X, CryptoQuant founder and CEO Ki Young Ju has discussed about a BTC pricing model that’s based on the Realized Cap. The “Realized Cap” here refers to an on-chain valuation model for Bitcoin that assumes the ‘real’ value of any coin in circulation is the price at which it was last transacted on the blockchain. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Down 7%, But Whales Continue To Buy For any token, its last transfer is likely to represent the last instance of it changing hands, so the price at its time could be considered as the token’s current cost basis. As such, the Realized Cap is a sum of the cost basis of all coins on the network. Put another way, the Realized Cap measures the total amount of capital that the holders of the cryptocurrency as a whole have invested into it. A new metric can be derived from this indicator by dividing it by the total circulating supply, representing the cost basis for the average token or investor on the chain. This indicator is known as the Realized Price. In the context of the current topic, the Realized Price itself isn’t of interest, but its two multipliers are: 3.9x and 0.75x. Below is the chart shared by Young Ju that shows the trend in these two multipliers of the Realized Price over the history of Bitcoin. In the graph, the CryptoQuant founder has marked the 3.9x multiplier of the Realized Price as BTC’s “ceiling price.” Similarly, the 0.75x multiplier represents the “floor price.” An inspection of the trend in the indicator during the past cycles reveals why the analyst has chosen to do so. It turns out that the asset has generally topped at or slightly above the 3.9x multiplier, while it has reached bottoms at or slightly under the 0.75x multiplier. At present, the ceiling price for the asset is sitting at a value of around $135,741, while the floor price at $26,104. Bitcoin is much higher than the latter right now, but there is also an appreciable distance to the former.

Naturally, the ceiling price isn’t something that’s certain to remain where it is now for the rest of the bull run, since any further fresh capital inflows into the asset would raise it. But for now, under $136,000 is looking like Bitcoin’s upper limit. BTC Price The Bitcoin rally has hit a pause button recently as the coin’s value is still trading around $90,000 right now.

Dogecoin has seen a significant uptick in activity over the past few hours as its price begins to rebound following a correction over the weekend. Over the last 24 hours, there has been a notable increase in the number of large DOGE transactions being moved across Dogecoin wallets. These large Dogecoin transactions, typically involving amounts greater than $100,000, are often regarded as an important indicator of a whale or institutional involvement in the market. Although the Dogecoin large transactions could as much be selloffs as they were accumulations, the sheer surge in activity shows a positive trend for the meme coin. Dogecoin Large Transaction Activity Intensifies The recent Dogecoin rally appears to be losing steam following an impressive surge that pushed its price above $0.42 for the first time since the 2021 bull market. A seeming profit-taking trend among traders that rode through the price rally has led to a pullback, bringing the Dogecoin price back below the $0.40 threshold. At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is currently trading below $0.40, having corrected to a $0.346 low in the past 24 hours.

However, on-chain data suggests this might not be the case. Despite the price correction, the Dogecoin blockchain continued to witness a surge in activity. According to data from analytics platform IntoTheBlock, Dogecoin recorded $23.35 billion in Dogecoin’s large transaction volume over the past 24 hours, representing a notable 41.12% increase compared to the previous day. In addition, the blockchain registered 157,190 active addresses during the same period, marking a 34.91% rise. What Does This Mean For DOGE Price? These metrics highlight sustained interest in Dogecoin, even amid its price correction. The sharp increase in Dogecoin’s large transaction volume and active addresses suggests that traders, particularly large holders, remain engaged with the meme coin.

DOGE has risen by approximately 4% during the past 24 hours and is now up 7.4% from its weekend low. Adding to the bullish sentiment, crypto analyst Captain Faibik has pointed out that the Dogecoin price is on the verge of breaking above the upper trendline of a falling wedge pattern. This falling wedge formation has been developing since DOGE’s price peaked at a three-year high of $0.4265 on November 14 and began consolidating. Based on this technical analysis, Captain Faibik predicts that a breakout from the wedge could trigger another rally, pushing Dogecoin’s price up by 25% to reach $0.47 At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at $0.38.
