Deep dives
Evolving Perspectives on On-Chain Data
Analysis of on-chain data has shifted significantly, as traditional indicators have become less reliable in evaluating Bitcoin's market movements. The increasing complexity of financial flows, particularly with new players like ETFs and corporations entering the market, obscures straightforward on-chain insights. Key metrics, such as active addresses and the Bitcoin blockchain’s functionality, still hold some relevance but are no longer central to trading decisions. The entry of traditional finance has added layers of complexity, complicating the effectiveness of previous analytical strategies.
