Cryptocurrency News and Public Mining Pools

Sorry if this is a question often asked, this wasn’t in the FAQ: I want to stake ETH from my MEW/a similar wallet on my phone.

It seems that LIDO is offering a way to stake (if you have less than 32 ETH OFC) through MEW. I did some searching online and it seems that it may be a better idea to just buy it on a DEX. Such as UNI or One inch. I want the lowest risk possible way…

Bitcoin NUPL Shows Average Holder Back In Profit, But For How Long?

On-chain data shows the Bitcoin NUPL metric is back to a positive value, suggesting the market as a whole is back in profit. Bitcoin NUPL Latest Trend Could Signal The Bottom Is Already In As pointed out by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post, the BTC NUPL breaking above the neutral market may be a sign that the bottom has set in. The “Net Unrealized Profit/Loss” (or “NUPL” in short) is an indicator that’s defined as the difference between the market and realized caps, divided by the market cap. In simpler terms, what this metric tells us is the profit/loss ratio among investors in the current Bitcoin market. The indicator works by looking at the on-chain history of each coin to see what price it was last moved at. If this selling price of any coin was less than the current BTC value, then that particular coin is holding some profit right now. Otherwise, it is in loss at the moment.

On the other hand, the indicator’s value being negative implies the overall market is currently in a state of loss. Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the BTC NUPL over the last several years: The value of the metric seems to have surged up in recent days | Source: CryptoQuant As you can see in the above graph, the quant has marked the relevant zones of bear market trend for the Bitcoin NUPL. It looks like some time after plunging deep below zero, a bounce back to positive values has been a sign of bottom formation during the previous bear markets. Currently, the indicator is back to a positive value after observing a surge recently. This means that the investors as a whole are slightly in profit right now. If the past cycles are anything to go by, this trend could imply the bottom has already been in for this Bitcoin bear market. However, as is apparent in the chart, a break to green NUPL values doesn’t necessarily mean the end of the bear. It has only indicated that the crypto has already faced the worst.
