Pet Rocks and Magic Beans.

I've been here studying for 8 years. I predate ethereum and almost marked it as a shitcoin (there were no altcoins then). I've made a corporation in this space. My company is objectively doing fine (we planned for bear season). This week I've heard the entirety of the cryptocurrency space referred to as "Pet Rocks"…

Bitcoin Holders Show Rapid New Accumulation For First Time This Bear, Bottom Signal?

On-chain data shows Bitcoin holders have done some rapid fresh accumulation recently, something that may lead to bottom formation for the cycle. Bitcoin 1w-1m Realized Cap UTXO Age Bands Have Sharply Gone Up As pointed out by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post, the percentage of the BTC realized cap that was last moved between 1 week to 1 month ago has displayed rapid uptrend for the first time in this bear. The “realized cap” is a Bitcoin capitalization model that values each coin in the circulating supply using the price at which it was last moved. The metric then calculates the “true valuation” of BTC by summing up all these values of the individual coins. This is different from the normal market cap, where every coin in circulation has the same one value; the current Bitcoin price. The “realized cap – UTXO age bands” is an indicator that tells us the distribution of the realized cap of each age band in the market. These age bands specify ranges between which UTXOs (or more simply, coins) falling into said age band were last moved.

Here is a chart that shows how the percentage of the realized cap contributed by this age band has changed over the years: Looks like the value of the metric has sharply gone up in recent weeks | Source: CryptoQuant As you can see in the above graph, the realized cap of the 1w-1m Bitcoin UTXO age band has observed some rapid uptrend recently. The older end of this range, that is, one month ago, is around when the crash due to the FTX collapse took place.

The indicator’s value rising thus suggests that investors have done some fresh accumulation at the lows following this crash. This is the first time in this Bitcoin bear market that such rapid new accumulation has taken place. From the chart, it’s apparent that such rises have historically coincided with cyclical lows in the price. Another interesting thing to note is that between these spikes in the metric during the previous two cycles, there were 1358 days. The current rise has come 1444 days after the last one, which is a similar length as the gap before. If there really is a pattern here, then the Bitcoin bottom may be very close, if not already in. BTC Price At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s price floats around $16.8k, down 1% in the last week.
