šŸš€ #Bitcoin is still soaring at $67K, despite a drop in new addresses to a low not seen since July 2018. Are traditional investments like ETFs diverting interest from on-chain transactions? šŸ¤”

šŸ“‰ Data shows a 7-day average of 276K new BTC addresses, a sharp drop from 625K six months ago. Miners' revenue, transaction fees, and on-chain transaction volume are also on the decline.

šŸ” The "New Addresses" indicator usually signals an influx of new investors. But with the recent approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs by the SEC, investors might be shifting towards derivatives speculation.

šŸ’° Despite high transaction fees following the Runes hype, fees have stabilized from an average of $31.4 on April 23 to $2.97 on May 18. Yet, the number of active addresses remains low.

šŸŒ The global crypto market cap today is $2.53 trillion, with most altcoins trading in the red over the past day.
