Long-term insights: used to observe our long-term situation; bull market/bear market/structural change/neutral state

Mid-term exploration: used to analyze what stage we are currently at, how long this stage will last, and what situations we will face.

Short-term observation: used to analyze short-term market conditions; as well as the emergence of some directions and the possibility of certain events occurring under certain conditions



long term insights

  • Adding new chips and destroying chips

  • long-term illiquid whale

  • Long-term participants’ chip structure

  • U.S. ETF Crypto Net Position


(The picture below shows adding chips and destroying chips)

Starting from June 2023, the number of new chips in the market has been increasing.

This kind of thing happened in the bull market before 2018, and it was a very obvious feature of the bull market.

Maybe this bull market is more like the stage from 2016 to the end of 2017.


(The picture below shows a long-term illiquid whale)

The giant whale, which has been stagnant for a long time, has accumulated a large amount of holdings in recent times.

They have always played a decisive role in the market. In the side market, they are currently within a relatively safe range in the long term and have not caused much fluctuation among these groups.


(The picture below shows the chip structure of long-term participants)

From the perspective of the chip structure of long-term participants, it is more similar to the process from 2016 to the end of 2017, rather than the process from 2020 to 2021.

In the halving, there will be speculation before, and after the speculation, more long-term chips will be sold and then the chips will be gathered again.

This process is relatively fast and the amplitude will be relatively small. Historically, the most recent process is faster than the previous ones and ended faster, which means that the market has really begun to change ahead of time.

Some attitudes are already halfway through the process. If long-term participants empty their chips, the market will enter a state of vacillation, instability, and instability.

It is easy to collapse under sudden selling pressure.

Because short-term speculation has no faith and is deeply price sensitive.


(Figure below: Net crypto positions of US stock ETFs)

After experiencing the post-ETF boom, ETFs have fallen into a certain degree of cooling.

It's not just Grayscale that's selling, but some other funds are also selling simultaneously.

Of course, Grayscale's sell-off has slowed down a lot to some extent.

What this means more is that ETF funds are more price sensitive. When they buy, the price will be pushed up very crazy, and once they sell, they may suffer a bloody nose.



mid-term exploration

  • Incremental model stable version

  • purchasing power difference

  • Real capital

  • accumulation coefficient


(The following figure shows the stable version of the incremental model)

The incremental purchasing power is constantly increasing, while the holdings of short-term participants are constantly rising.

It can be summarized that the increment in the market is still actively participating in market growth.

Judging from the current situation, the incremental trend has not stagnated, and new participants are still participating extensively in the market.


(The figure below shows the difference in purchasing power)

The purchasing power difference shows that there is still relatively sufficient purchasing power within the exchange.

Current growth conditions are slightly paused.


(Chart below: Real net capital position)

Judging from the accumulation of real capital in the market, the market faces a major challenge - constantly breaking new market value records.

During the period of continuous growth of on-site capital, it also indirectly reflects that the market's growth trend has not stagnated, but it just needs continuous breakthroughs to make the overall plate bigger.


(Figure below: Accumulation coefficient)

Accumulating groups resume growth after a period of decline and stagnation.

It has stalled slightly but remains within the upward growth channel.
