Bitcoin On-Chain Signals Mixed
CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju issued a warning today, stating that Bitcoin on-chain indicators are currently teetering on the edge of a bull or bear market. The next few months will be crucial in determining the direction of the BTC market.
Key Indicators at a Crossroads
- Bitcoin on-chain metrics show a precarious balance between bullish and bearish signals. More data is needed for a definitive trend confirmation.
- Ki Young Ju predicts the current bull run could extend until April 2025, though he acknowledges significant uncertainty.
Ju emphasizes that further observation is critical, stating "We need at least another month of data to confirm whether we’re entering a bear market." He cautions that a failure in demand recovery could trigger a full bearish signal across the indicators.
Expert Opinion and Mitigation Strategies
Ju maintains a cautiously optimistic outlook, suggesting a potential consolidation period: "Even in the worst case, I see a high probability of consolidating around $77K for a few months before moving back up." He added a strong word of caution regarding leverage, advising against "heavy leveraged directional bets—long or short—right now."
His bullish prediction is based on typical two-year market cycles, projecting the bull market could continue until April 2025. This is, however, contingent upon market trends in the coming months.
Market Context and Recent Events
Bitcoin's price today is $84,400, representing a 2.4% decrease from the previous day's close. This price movement correlates with some recent shifts in the broader market landscape. Institutional investors have recently shown signs of risk aversion, with Bitcoin ETFs experiencing $1.1 billion in outflows in a single day.
Further contributing to investor uncertainty are growing inflation concerns and threats of new tariffs.
