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 in, how long this stage will last, and what situations we will face

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

Long-term insights

  • On-chain spot selling pressure

  • Exchange Position Status

(The picture below shows the on-chain spot selling pressure)

Spot selling pressure reached its lowest point in 8 years.

Currently, there is almost no selling pressure on the spot market, which has reached the lowest level in history. The market pressure is the easiest in 8 years.

It's so easy that only a little bit of purchasing power is needed to squeeze the market upward.

(The following figure shows the exchange position status)

Participants are still actively hoarding coins, but the corresponding frequency and amount of hoarding have begun to decline.

The amount of coins on the exchange is also at its lowest level in several years.

The active coin hoarding behavior has occurred in the last two months.

The market has now reached its lowest selling point in eight years, and buying and hoarding are still proceeding silently.

If the market remains like this, an upward squeeze could occur in the next 1-2 quarters.

Mid-term exploration

  • Short-Term Profit Percentage Compounding Model

  • Ratio of long-term to short-term participants

  • Exchange futures leverage ratio

  • Exchange Trend Net Position

  • Positive sentiment on the Internet

  • Purchasing power difference

(The figure below shows the short-term profit percentage compound model)

From a medium-term perspective, short-term participants are in a relatively hesitant position, and the direction of increase or decrease is not very clear, but overall the pace of reduction has been temporarily stopped at this stage. Perhaps in the constant baptism, the mid-term rhythm of the market will temporarily stabilize.

The accumulation group is still growing, the pace of hoarding coins remains unchanged, and the medium- and long-term fundamentals remain relatively positive.

However, the growth rate has slowed down, and the overall rhythm may also be adjusted. The market as a whole needs time to gain more space.

Therefore, the problem of liquidity loss has been temporarily alleviated in the short term.

(The figure below shows the ratio of long-term to short-term participants)

From the perspective of the proportion of participants,

The proportion of participants with a holding period of 6 months-2 years is currently greater than that of participants with a holding period of 1-3 months.

Perhaps the overall tone has returned to a relatively conservative level, with the proportion of longer-term participants growing and short-term participants losing out.

Of course, the reaction in the market needs to take into account the selling pressure situation.

Drill down to see position changes in on-exchange balances.

(Figure below shows the trend of net positions on exchanges)

In the trend net position, the current situation is still in a relatively weak accumulation state.

Perhaps overall it is still in a state of accumulation at a slower pace.

(Figure below: Network sentiment positivity)

On-chain activity is still growing at a slower pace, and a relative medium-term trend may be forming.

If the current trend does not encounter significant selling pressure in the medium term, or rapid selling pressure due to weakened liquidity, the secondary market may perform well in the next 1-2 months.

(Purchasing power difference in the figure below)

Purchasing power has weakened slightly, which may have some impact in the near future.

Taking into account the enthusiasm on the chain, the buyer's power may be relatively weakened at present, but there is still a certain degree of activity overall.

Short-term observation

Derivatives rating: Risk factor is in the danger zone, risk is increasing

(The figure below shows the risk factor of derivatives)

As prices rise, the risk factor has fallen back to the danger zone.

Although the room for continued price increases may be limited if we only look at the risk factor, since there is no large-scale short squeeze at present, even if the risk of derivatives increases, the price may continue to break through and form a large-scale short squeeze.

(The figure below shows the option intention transaction ratio)

Options trading volume has dropped significantly, and the proportion of put options has dropped moderately compared with last week and is currently at a median level.

(Figure below shows derivatives trading volume)

Although prices have risen, the current derivatives trading volume has not fluctuated much and remains at a low level, indicating that most derivatives traders are currently in a wait-and-see state.

(The figure below shows the implied volatility of options)

Option implied volatility rose slightly and option traders' activity increased slightly.

Emotional state rating: Neutral

(The following figure shows the amount of profit and loss transfer)

In the past few weeks, market sentiment has been in a neutral to cold state. This week, the positive sentiment of the market has risen slightly with the rise in prices, and the panic sentiment is still at a low level.

The current price has reached the cost range of short-term holders. This week, we will continue to focus on market panic represented by loss transfer volume.

(Figure below shows newly added addresses and active addresses)

This week, the number of newly added addresses dropped significantly, and the number of active addresses also dropped slightly.

Spot and selling pressure structure rating: The overall outflow is accumulated and the selling pressure is low.

This week’s summary:

Summary of news:

  1. The crypto fund management industry is currently worth about $45-50 billion, and with the approval of ETFs, capital expectations, hype, etc., it has the potential to exceed $500 billion in five years. These demands will come from investment advisors, wealth and private banking products, as well as the ability to easily access BTC ETFs in direct brokerage accounts.

  2. It will indirectly cause a leverage amplification effect of two to three times, which means that there is room for capital inflows to expand the current market value by 2-3 times.

  3. In terms of encryption policy, reports released by European and American countries, such as the Federal Reserve, are actively building and laying the foundation for the encryption policy environment.

Technology:

The tide of the times has also reached a turning point, with technology companies led by Open Ai driving industrial development.

In a century, few individuals or corporate organizations can directly drive the development of industries and times. This is quite a great feat.

With the latest grayscale test of the GPT4 small v visual version being revealed to have completed training in 2022, we can basically expect the multimodal support of GPT5 (perhaps with another name) within the next year.

It may change the auxiliary creation in education, engineering, sports rehabilitation, design and painting, and other fields.

At the same time, Apple’s AR will be released within a year, and the encrypted ETF is likely to be approved with a high probability.

If WEB3 changes the world's new financial order and organizational form, then AI and AR change the world's new way of generation and interaction.

The prototype of all this will come in the next 1-5 years.

At the same time, on the financial and economic side, as the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates next year and the year after, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield will turn and decline, and the anchor of asset pricing will also shift again.

The market style will face a new transformation.

You have your plans, the world has others.

The future may witness the birth of a new era and the beginning of new history.
