Hi, everyone. We are back! Sorry for the long absence. We’ve spent the past few months developing some awesome on-chain indicators, which will be released soon. :)
For BTC, we are currently at a crucial state, with many attempts at the 10k mark. All fundamentals considered, we do believe it is only a matter of time for the break to the upside. However, looking at miner behavior, we do think the consolidation would still need some time to play out. Historically, it has always been good accumulation opportunities after the weak miners’ sell off and capitulation. With only strong miners left, the miner selling pressure decreases. Recent data also shows a significant decrease in miners transferring BTC to exchange wallets after the halving, confirming the increasing miners’ short-term holding behavior.
How do miners react in large price drops / halving events?
--> Price drop / halving
--> Miner revenue decrease
--> Weak miners: sell more to maintain operational
--> Strong miners: holding and use existing cash for operational cost
--> Weak miners: not sustainable & capitulate
--> Only strong miners left (holding, not selling) --> mkt supply decrease
--> Price stabilize --> then rise
