The Bitcoin community have been eagerly awaiting the start of a new bull market especially following the recent halving that occurred in April, however, according to a latest analysis from a CryptoQuant analyst under the pseudonym Onchained, that moment has not yet arrived and there is a reason. In the post uploaded on the CryptoQuant QuickTake platform, Onchained’s analysis focused on the Long-Term Holder (LTH) Mourad Ratio, a proprietary indicator that tracks UTXOs (unspent transaction outputs) held for more than six months. This ratio basically helps gauge market sentiment and accumulation trends among long-term Bitcoin holders, offering valuable insights into when BTC may enter its next bull phase. Related Reading: Bitcoin Held For Years Are Now On The Move, Is This A Signal For Caution? Stability In The Long-Term Holder Mourad Ratio One of the key indicators highlighted in the analysis is the stability of the Long-Term Holder Mourad Ratio. Historically, when this ratio remains stable, it suggests that the market is not yet ready for a significant upward movement. Onchained explained that a bull market typically begins only when the ratio starts to deviate negatively from these stable levels. Currently, data shows that the LTH Mourad Ratio is steady, signaling that Bitcoin’s bull run is yet to begin. This stableness in the ratio as revealed by the analyst, indicates that long-term holders are not yet driving substantial price movement in the market, and investors may need to exercise patience until more favourable conditions arise. For further context, the Mourad Ratio is calculated by dividing the Long-Term Holder Mourad Current Transaction Value (LTH MCTV) by the current Bitcoin price. This calculation provides insight into the average value of UTXOs aged over six months, giving a clearer picture of recent accumulation trends among longer-term BTC holders. Technicals Suggests Bitcoin Bull Run Is Not So Far While Onchained analysis has confirmed that Bitcoin bull run is yet to start, other analysts has turned to historical price chart to gauge when the bull run for BTC could begin from a technical perspective. Popular Bitcoin insight platform known as Bitcoin archive on X has recently highlighted that BTC is on the verge of making a “bullish cross-over on the 5-day chart for the first time in 230 days.” Related Reading: Analyst Warns Of Short Squeeze as Bitcoin Futures Market Heats Up According to Bitcoin Archive, the last two times this happened, BTC went up by 79% and 74%, therefore, should this repeat itself again, Bitcoin could surge past $100,000.

Recent data from CryptoQuant has revealed that Bitcoin may be on the cusp of a significant recovery, supported by key on-chain metrics. Particularly, according to a CryptoQuant analyst under the pseudonym Darkfost, several indicators are reaching crucial support levels, signaling a “potential long-term bullish shift.” These metrics suggest that Bitcoin’s price could experience substantial growth as market sentiment turns more optimistic. Related Reading: Is Bitcoin Heading For A Bear Market? Analysts Weigh In On The Price Struggles Key On-Chain Metrics Pointing To Recovery One of the primary indicators the analyst highlights is the 7-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the Fund Flow Ratio. Currently at 0.05, this metric has historically acted as a major support line. When it reaches this level, it often marks the end of a bear market or signals the beginning of a new bullish phase. The fact that the Fund Flow Ratio is now showing a slight rebound, according to data revealed by Darkfost suggests that investors are becoming more active on exchanges, a positive sign for Bitcoin’s future price trajectory. In addition to the Fund Flow Ratio, the 30-day SMA of the Estimated Leverage Ratio is another key metric showing signs of recovery. The leverage ratio, which has formed a support range between 0.15 and 0.175, is trending upwards. This indicator measures the use of leverage in Bitcoin trading, and a rise often indicates increased market confidence. Darkfost highlighted that the approval of futures exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and recent developments in Bitcoin options trading would contribute to the “growing influence” of this metric. Another critical metric Darkfost outlined is the 30-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of Binary Coin Days Destroyed (CDD). This indicator tracks the movement of long-term Bitcoin holders, and when it rises sharply, it usually signals the “end of a bull market,” according to the CryptoQuant analyst. This metric fluctuates between 0.1 and 0.3, indicating that long-term holders are accumulating Bitcoin. Notably, this trend suggests that seasoned investors are positioning themselves for potential future gains, which could further boost Bitcoin’s price in the coming months. Related Reading: Bitcoin To Outshine Gold By 400% By 2025, Veteran Analyst Predicts Bitcoin Positive Long-Term Outlook The analysis concludes with a focus on the long-term outlook for Bitcoin. The CryptoQuant analyst believes that the recent movements in on-chain metrics are a positive signal for Bitcoin’s long-term growth. His conclusion read: I prefer to observe on-chain data from a long-term perspective. These support levels and recent movements are very positive from a long-term standpoint. As revealed in the report, the support levels identified in the Fund Flow Ratio, Leverage Ratio, and Binary CDD all point towards the conclusion of the bear market, with increasing momentum building for a future bull run. However, the timing and magnitude of the potential price increases remain uncertain. Featured image created with DALL-E, Chart from TradingView

Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, is experiencing increasing bearish sentiment in its futures market, according to a recent analysis by CryptoQuant analyst ShayanBTC. The analyst reported on the CryptoQuant QuickTake platform that Ethereum’s futures market has shown its lowest funding rates of 2024. This trend indicates that traders in the perpetual futures market are currently less optimistic about Ethereum’s short-term price movements. Related Reading: Ethereum Sees Massive Outflows from Derivatives: What Does This Mean For ETH? Ethereum Declining Funding Rates And Market Implications According to ShayanBTC, the 50-day moving average of Ethereum’s funding rates has been on a consistent downward trend, indicating a persistent bearish outlook among futures traders. For context, funding rates in perpetual futures contracts are payments made between long and short traders based on the difference between perpetual futures and spot prices. When funding rates are positive, it implies that long traders pay short traders, suggesting bullish sentiment. Conversely, negative funding rates mean short traders pay long traders, signaling a more bearish market stance. In the case of Ethereum, the current negative trend in funding rates highlights a lack of buying interest in the perpetual futures market. Shayan noted: For Ethereum to recover and reach higher price levels, demand in the perpetual futures market must increase. If the current trend of negative funding rates continues, it is likely that Ethereum will experience further price declines in the mid-term. Is A Rally Still Possible? The impact of these bearish funding rates has been quite evident in Ethereum’s recent performance. So far, the cryptocurrency has experienced a consistent decline, dropping by 4.9% in the past 24 hours alone. This decline has dragged Ethereum’s price below the $2,300 mark, compounding its losses over the past month to more than 10%. The persistent bearishness is partly attributed to the “lack of buying interest” in the futures market, as noted by the CryptoQuant analyst. Despite the negative sentiment in the futures market, some analysts remain optimistic about Ethereum’s potential for a rebound. One such analyst, Koroush AK, expressed a more positive outlook, suggesting that Ethereum is due for a significant bounce. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts $4,000 Mid-Term Target for Ethereum, Declares End to ETH Correction Koroush pointed to higher time frames, highlighting the 100-week moving average and the key psychological support level at $2,000 as potential catalysts for a recovery.

Negative rates can result in short liquidation cascades, where short positions are forced to close, leading to a sharp price reversal. Featured image created with DALL-E, Chart from TradingView
The price of Bitcoin (BTC) ended the week on a good note after making a late rally on Friday, September 13. This recent price upswing has led to talks about the Bitcoin price making a comeback following a horrendous start to September. Interestingly, the latest on-chain data suggests that the ongoing price recovery might not exactly be what it looks like. So, what then is happening with the price of Bitcoin? Declining Volume Suggests Bitcoin Price Is Still In Downtrend In a post on the X platform, popular crypto analyst Ali Martinez shared an on-chain observation that could offer insight into recent Bitcoin price action. The relevant indicator here is Santiment’s transaction volume metric, which monitors the total amount of a cryptocurrency transacted within a given time interval. Related Reading: 112,000 ETH Moved To Crypto Exchanges In The Past Day — Impact On Ethereum Price? Historically, the transaction volume metric can be associated with the strength and direction of the market’s price trends. According to Martinez, Bitcoin’s transaction volume tends to rise during periods of upward price movement, as the market is usually more active. On the other hand, BTC’s transaction volume typically decreases during a price downtrend, as market participants engage less in buying and selling activities. As of now, the Bitcoin transaction volume continues to fall, implying that even though the Bitcoin price seems to be recovering, a definitive trend reversal has not yet occurred. This sustained decline in volume indicates market uncertainty, suggesting that the price of Bitcoin may continue to consolidate or even experience further downward movement. The reduced market activity could be associated with the bearish history of BTC in September, with investors likely choosing to navigate the market with more caution. Ultimately, this indicates that the latest Bitcoin rally may be short-lived, with the premier cryptocurrency likely not to build on its recent momentum. Bitcoin Whales Realize $50 Million In Profit It appears that some Bitcoin holders are not waiting for the flagship cryptocurrency to resume its bull run to cash in on their profits. For instance, on-chain data shows that some large investors accrued a significant amount in profit following the recent Bitcoin price rally above $60,000. Ali Martinez revealed in a separate post on X that BTC whales took advantage of the recent price spike to realize more than $50 million in profits. This is based on an increase in long-term holder whales’ realized profit (in USD), implying that old large investors sold their coins at a higher price than the acquisition price. This level of profit-taking can be a negative signal for the premier cryptocurrency, as large sell-offs can cause downward pressure on the Bitcoin price. Interestingly, the price of BTC has not made any significant movement in the past day and continues to hover around the $60,000 level. Related Reading: Time To Convert Bitcoin To Ethereum?

The Ethereum price has been one of the major talking points in the crypto space lately, having been under significant bearish pressure in recent weeks. However, the second-largest cryptocurrency seems to be on a recovery path following its first positive weekly performance in more than a month. Recent on-chain data shows that significant amounts of ETH tokens have made their way to centralized exchanges in the past day. The question now is — could this hamper the recent progress shown by the Ethereum price? Here’s How Rising Exchange Inflow Affects Ethereum Price Prominent crypto pundit Ali Martinez took to the X platform to reveal that Ethereum investors have been moving their assets to centralized exchanges in the past 24 hours. This on-chain observation is based on the CryptoQuant exchange reserve metric, which monitors the total amount of a particular cryptocurrency on all exchanges. Related Reading: Is Bitcoin Heading For A Bear Market? Analysts Weigh In On The Price Struggles Typically, the value of this metric increases when investors make more deposits than withdrawals of a token (Ether, in this case) into a centralized exchange. On the flip side, when the exchange reserve metric falls, it implies that the holders are moving their assets out of crypto exchanges. When investors move their assets from self-custodial wallets to centralized exchanges, it is often because they intend to use the platforms’ services, which include selling. As a result, an increase in the exchange reserve metric is often associated with increasing selling pressure. According to data from CryptoQuant, more than 112,000 ETH (worth around $257.6 million) were transferred to cryptocurrency exchanges in the last 24 hours. The movement of these significant Ether amounts could trigger downward pressure on the Ethereum price. Considering its delicate position at the moment, bearish circumstances, such as rising exchange inflows, could hinder the Ethereum price’s newly found momentum. Nonetheless, it is worth noting there has not been such an effect on ETH’s price in the past day. On the contrary, the altcoin is up by more than 3% while looking to breach the $2,500 level. Are Investors Fleeing The Market? The latest on-chain data shows that investors might be flooding out of the Bitcoin and Ethereum markets. According to Ali Martinez, over $2.6 billion has flowed out of the two largest cryptocurrencies in the last seven days.

According to market signals that have historically preceded major price rallies, Bitcoin is gearing up for its next potential bull run. A CryptoQuant analyst named ‘Tarek’ has recently highlighted key indicators in a post on the CryptoQuant QuickTake platform, suggesting that Bitcoin’s price might soon experience a significant upward movement. These indicators include declining Bitcoin reserves on exchanges and increasing stablecoin reserves, which create an optimistic market outlook. Related Reading: Is Bitcoin Heading For A Bear Market? Analysts Weigh In On The Price Struggles Key Indicators Signal Growing Buying Power According to the report shared by Tarek, over the past several months, Bitcoin’s exchange reserves have been on a downward trend, a phenomenon that often signals reduced selling pressure. When investors move their Bitcoin to cold storage, it limits the available supply on exchanges, which can result in a tighter market. This shift in supply dynamics is generally seen as bullish, suggesting that investors are holding their Bitcoin with the expectation of future price increases. In contrast to the decreasing Bitcoin reserves, Tarek highlighted that stablecoin reserves on exchanges are also rising. Notably, stablecoins such as USDT and USDC are widely used to store value during market uncertainty, allowing traders to deploy capital quickly when the right opportunity arises. The rising stablecoin reserves suggest that market participants are preparing for a potential entry point, further strengthening the bullish outlook for Bitcoin. This combination of shrinking Bitcoin reserves and rising stablecoin reserves creates an environment ripe for a price breakout. Tarek noted: The combination of shrinking Bitcoin reserves and rising stablecoin reserves sets the stage for a bullish price breakout. With reduced Bitcoin supply and growing buying power, the market is primed for a potential upward move. Historically, this supply-demand imbalance has led to significant price gains. Concluding the report, Tarek mentioned that the occurrence of a major rally might be as close as in the “coming weeks,” noting: As the market supply tightens and buying power builds, we could be on the verge of a price rally. Investors should stay alert for a potential breakout in the coming weeks. Bitcoin Current Market Performance Amid the bullishness in Bitcoin’s on-chain data, the asset still struggles to make a major move above the $60,000 psychological price level. So far, BTC has declined by 1.6% in the past day and 2.3% in the past week, pushing its price below $57,000 once again to trade for $56,047 at the time of writing. Related Reading: New ATH Incoming? Analyst Reveals Why Bitcoin’s Next Rally Is Around the Corner Interestingly, despite the consistent decline in BTC’s price, the daily trading volume of the asset appears to be seeing an opposite trend, rising from below $15 billion last week to above $34 billion.

A crypto analyst has revealed that the price of Bitcoin might be gearing for a fresh rally after the appearance of a bullish on-chain signal. Bitcoin UTXOs In Profit At Lowest Level Since 2023 — Here’s Why In a QuickTake post on the CryptoQuant platform, an analyst with the pseudonym EgyHash shared an interesting on-chain insight into the Bitcoin price. This on-chain observation revolves around the Bitcoin UTXO (unspent transaction output) metric, which tracks the amount of cryptocurrency that remains following the execution of a transaction. Related Reading: Here’s How Cardano Price Will ‘Survive’ A US Recession: Crypto Analyst The percentage of these unspent cryptocurrencies in profit gives an insight into the market’s current condition. For instance, an increase in Bitcoin UTXOs in profit suggests that most investors are in the green, which can either motivate them to keep faith in the coin or, in some scenarios, push them to take profit. On the other hand, when a higher percentage of UTXOs are in loss, it means that more investors are holding a loss, suggesting a negative market sentiment. According to the CryptoQuant analyst, the percentage of Bitcoin UTXOs in profit has steadily declined, recently falling to its lowest level since October 2023. Data from CryptoQuant shows that the proportion of Bitcoin UTXOs in profit decreased from 99% in June 2024 to 68.5% in September 2024. Interestingly, this market phenomenon has coincided with a recent fall in the price of Bitcoin. The crypto analyst noted that the decline in Bitcoin’s price seems to be associated with profit-taking, as investors are selling their coins to realize some gain. Meanwhile, this is supported by the aforementioned decline in the percentage of Bitcoin UTXOs in profit. Nevertheless, it may not be all bad news for the premier cryptocurrency with the UTXO metric currently at a multi-month low. Historical data shows that the proportion of BTC UTXOs in profit being at its current level could be a signal of a market bottom. The last time the Bitcoin UTXOs in profit slumped to 68.5%, the price of Bitcoin rallied 175% from $26,700 to a new all-time high of $73,737. While there is no guarantee there will be a repeat rally from the current point, investors might still want to pay attention to other relevant on-chain metrics. BTC Price At A Glance As of this writing, the price of Bitcoin is slightly under the $54,000 level, reflecting a 4.1% decline in the past 24 hours. According to data from CoinGecko, the flagship cryptocurrency is down by more than 9% in the past week. Related Reading: Solana To $100 Inevitable After This Break?

Bitcoin has continued its bearish momentum as its price has now slipped below $56,000. Here’s what could be behind this trajectory, according to CryptoQuant’s Head of Research. Bitcoin On-Chain Metrics Are All Giving Bearish Signals Right Now In a new thread on X, CryptoQuant Head of Research Julio Moreno has discussed why the original cryptocurrency has been struggling recently. “Bitcoin price is down simply because there is no demand growth,” notes the analyst. Related Reading: Bitcoin Momentum Indicators Are All Showing Death Cross: Say Hello To Bear Market? To showcase how demand for the asset has been looking like, Moreno has shared the chart for the “Apparent Demand” indicator, which leverages on-chain data to estimate the 30-day demand for BTC among investors. According to the above graph, demand for Bitcoin had been high earlier in the year, according to this indicator. Still, after peaking in April, the indicator sharply declined towards zero. Since then, the Apparent Demand has continued to consolidate around this neutral level, which may be why the cryptocurrency’s price has been locked in an overall bearish trajectory. The second indicator that the CryptoQuant head has cited is the Bitcoin Bull-Bear Market Cycle Indicator. This metric combines a few BTC indicators related to profit and loss to produce one value that sums up the entire market. From the graph, it’s visible that the the asset had been inside the historical “Overheated Bull” region from the perspective of CryptoQuant’s Bull-Bear Market Cycle Indicator back when its price had set the all-time high (ATH). After the coin had cooled off from this top, the indicator flashed a normal “Bull” signal, just like it had done in January and February. These bull market conditions were maintained until the crash early last month. During this plunge, BTC dropped below $50,000, and the Bull-Bear Market Cycle Indicator flagged the market as “Bear.” Since then, the indicator has continued to consolidate around the transition boundary, jumping back and forth between Bull and Bear signals. In the past week or so, though, the metric has consistently maintained inside the Bear region, which may be why Bitcoin has registered a drawdown of 6% in this window. Related Reading: Dogecoin Among Altcoins Seeing Deepest Trader Losses: DOGE Rebound Soon? Moreno has also pointed out a price level to watch, as BTC is quite close to retesting it. The level in question is the lower band of the average cost basis of the BTC traders. At present, this level is situated around $55,500. It remains to be seen how a retest of this level goes if the cryptocurrency continues its decline. BTC Price Bitcoin is currently trading around $55,900, which means the coin is pretty close to retesting the trader above the cost basis level.

Following its renewed peak above $73,000 back in March, Bitcoin has been experiencing a prolonged period of price stagnation ever since, leaving many investors wondering about the potential for future movements. According to a recent analysis by a CryptoQuant analyst under the pseudonym ‘Avocado,’ this stagnation may bear a resemblance to a similar pattern observed in 2019. Related Reading: Bitcoin’s Recovery Rally: Breaking Through This Level Is Key To Bullish Momentum – Analyst Why Is Bitcoin Price Still Below $60,000? In the report uploaded on the CryptoQuant QuickTake platform, the analyst suggests that the lack of volatility in Bitcoin’s price is largely due to the increased prevalence of over-the-counter (OTC) trading compared to exchange-based trading, which has reduced the frequency and intensity of price fluctuations. This conclusion was made after the analyst assessed one of Bitcoin’s key metrics—lifespan of UTXOs (Unspent Transaction Outputs)—which is used to analyze investor behavior. By examining UTXOs held for less than six months, the analyst classifies these holders as new investors and compares their behavior to similar periods in previous market cycles. The data reveals a small peak in UTXOs under six months, which closely mirrors a structure seen in 2019. These new investors likely entered the market around March of this year when Bitcoin’s price peaked, according to the analyst. However, as the price has remained stagnant, many of these investors may have exited the market due to losses, while others have transitioned into the six-month-and-above holding category, the analyst added. The 2019 Pattern And What It Signals For Current Market The analyst, Avocado, further explained that this similar pattern, which was also observed in 2019, occurred around the time of the halving event, which eventually led to a new all-time high (ATH) for Bitcoin. However, it took approximately 490 days for Bitcoin to reach this ATH, a timeline that was also influenced by the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. With Bitcoin’s price stuck in a large range for more than six months, the current situation raises questions about the potential for a similar outcome. Related Reading: Is Bitcoin’s Rally Over? Top Analysts Predict Imminent Price Corrections The analyst remains confident in the long-term upward trend of Bitcoin but advises caution in the short term. Avocado noted: Currently, Bitcoin’s price has been stuck in a large range for more than six months, with no clear trigger for a breakout. While I have no doubt about the long-term upward trend, in the short term, I believe it’s wise to temper expectations and closely monitor the market. Historically, the influx of capital from new investors has been a critical condition for Bitcoin’s price increases. Featured image created with DALL-E, Chart from TradingView

Toncoin (TON), the cryptocurrency associated with the popular messaging app Telegram, is making headlines as its Masterchain achieves a record-breaking 946 active addresses per day. This achievement has driven a nearly 9% increase in Toncoin’s value, standing out in contrast to the broader market’s downward trend. Maartunn, an analyst at CryptoQuant Research, claims that since July 2021, the TON Masterchain’s active address count has skyrocketed more than sevenfold. This notable uptick points to growing blockchain adoption, which drives more transactions and general network activity. User Activity Boosts Toncoin Demand The rise in active addresses highlights how continuously the TON ecosystem is building. Expanding the network allows for more diverse distributed apps (dApps) and work chains, which shows healthy blockchain development. Related Reading: Toncoin Rally Thwarted As TON Slips To $6, Can Bulls Prevent A Bearish Breakdown? Due to extensive inflow, the demand for TON coins has increased. More network activity affects the general economic condition of the TON blockchain, which is usually linked to a surge in token value. It’s important to note that this number reflects activity on the Master chain alone despite the seemingly modest figure of 946 daily active addresses. The TON blockchain operates with multiple sidechains, named workchains, which handle most data management. The Masterchain primarily focuses on processing messages and transactions rather than storing data. This result shows a growing interest in the TON network, as increasing user and developer involvement usually stimulates the demand for TON tokens. TON Price Outlook The price of Toncoin (TON) is down 2.8% at the time of writing, trading at $6.67. Since the price drop, the trading volume has also dropped by 23% to about $227 million. Toncoin is the 8th largest cryptocurrency, with a market cap of $16.8 billion. Analysts pay close attention to the $7 level for Toncoin, a key support level. If Toncoin goes above this mark, it might keep bullish momentum. Examining the TON spike of 26% over the next two weeks can predict its yearly surge of more than 400%. However, if the price falls below $6.43, it could decrease, testing support around $6.04. According to IntoThe Block analytics, the TON network has surpassed 39.5 million addresses. This milestone highlights its growing popularity and strong network, attracting institutional and retail investors.

The Head of Research at the on-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant has explained why Bitcoin may be at risk of seeing a further drawdown. Bitcoin Is Still On Verge Of Bear Market In This Indicator In a new post on X, CryptoQuant Head of Research Julio Moreno has discussed the latest trend in the Bitcoin Bull-Bear Market Cycle Indicator. The “Bull-Bear Market Cycle Indicator” from CryptoQuant is an indicator based on the P&L Index. The P&L Index combines a few popular BTC metrics related to profit and loss, so it sums up the market balance in one value. This indicator can ascertain whether the asset is going through a bullish or bearish period by comparing it against its 365-day moving average (MA). Related Reading: Bitcoin Observes Pullback To $58,000: Is This The Cause? When the cryptocurrency breaks above its 365-day MA, it can be assumed to be inside a bull market. Similarly, falling under this MA implies a transition toward a bear market. The Bull-Bear Market Cycle Indicator, the actual metric of focus here, exists to make this pattern easier to follow; it keeps track of the distance between the P&L Index and its 365-day MA. Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin Bull-Bear Market Cycle Indicator over the past couple of years: As displayed in the above graph, the Bitcoin Bull-Bear Market Cycle indicator had reached extreme values during the price all-time high (ATH) earlier in the year (colored in red). At these levels, the P&L Index has quite the gap over its 365-day MA, so the cryptocurrency’s bull rally has become overheated. The graph shows that the metric also gave this signal on a few other occasions during the past two years, and each time, the asset’s price reached the top. However, these previous tops weren’t enough to hold the market back in the long term, as the Bull-Bear Market Cycle Indicator continued to maintain inside the bull territory (shaded in orange), where the P&L Index is above its 365-day MA. Related Reading: This Is The On-Chain Level That Made The Bitcoin Crash Bottom However, bull market momentum has finally shown signs of running out, with the indicator even briefly plunging into the bear territory (light blue) during the recent price crash. While the metric has recovered back into the bull region with the surge that BTC’s price has observed, it’s still very close to the neutral mark, meaning it can potentially sink back into the bearish zone shortly. Based on this trend, Moreno notes that BTC could still risk seeing a further correction. BTC Price Bitcoin has seen its recovery stall recently, as its price is still trading around the $58,500 mark.
