Bitcoin struggles to regain momentum
According to the latest report by the renowned analytics firm Glassnode, the current on-chain metrics of the leading cryptocurrency demonstrate persistent overhead supply from investors, which negatively impacts Bitcoin's ability to recover its positions. The cryptocurrency market as a whole continues to consolidate below the $90,000 mark for BTC, indicating rather fragile investor confidence in the near future.
Key points from the Glassnode report:
- The amount of BTC on cryptocurrency exchanges remains high, suggesting investors' readiness to sell their assets when favorable opportunities arise.
- The Exchange Net Position Change metric shows a downward trend, indicating that large players are in no hurry to withdraw their funds from trading platforms.
- The MVRV (Market Value to Realized Value) indicator is at levels typical for bear markets, which points to general caution among investors.
Thus, the current situation around Bitcoin is characterized by persistent overhead supply from investors, which does not allow the first cryptocurrency to confidently recover its positions above $90,000. Likely, the market will need time to digest the accumulated supply and return to sustained growth.
