Published by

Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency, has been the center of attention recently due to its price surge to $65k after falling to $54k. Adding to the excitement, Bitcoin’s NVT ratio has hit a historic low not seen in over 2.5 years. 

Here’s what you should know.

Analyst Insights: Is the Downturn Over?

Prominent crypto analyst Michael van de Poppe suggests that this could signal the end of Bitcoin’s recent downturn. The strong buying sentiment in the market is further indicated by Bitcoin’s RSI standing at 63.60.

In a recent tweet, van de Poppe highlighted a significant milestone in Bitcoin’s market performance: the NVT ratio dropping to its lowest point in the past two and a half years. The NVT ratio, which measures network value relative to transaction volume, has historically been a crucial indicator of Bitcoin’s market health.

Van de Poppe noted that this drop is particularly unusual, surpassing declines seen during major events like the Luna collapse or recent market corrections. However, a negative NVT ratio suggests a shift in market dynamics, with strong buying pressure compared to on-chain transaction volume.

Van de Poppe emphasized that this dip in the NVT ratio indicates the recent correction phase for Bitcoin may be ending. He urged investors to prepare for potential market movements, suggesting that the worst of the correction could be behind us.
