This week in Markets

The market mostly moved sideways this week with some upward and downward movements. Further, the entire market cap also moves sideways, showing no recovery anytime soon until we get a strong push upwards. 

According to data from IntoTheBlock, the $BTC accumulation is now not just a whales game. Addresses holding <10 BTC have increased their holdings in 2022 dramatically. While the group of addresses with 10k-100k BTC reduced their exposure from 4m to 3.9m BTC in 2022, the different clusters of small addresses accumulated.

On average, youโ€™re now losing over 17% of your savings every year, approximately 1.31% every month. However, the S&P 500 index / BTC is moving downwards within a year timeframe (which might be a point given by bitcoin pessimists saying bitcoin cannot work as an inflation hedge.)

However, they might get the counter-statement to that as on zooming out the chart; bitcoin has out-performed every single asset class in the last ten years.

Number of Addresses in Profit

The market is at a good support level, and if we get a slingshot movement upwards from here, thereโ€™s a very good chance weโ€™re going upwards from here. So even though only 40% of addresses are in profit around the current price levels, getting to a stronger level at around $41,000 would be the best thing to look for right now.
