CryptoQuant analyst signals Bitcoin’s dip as a prime accumulation opportunity

Key Takeaways

• Short-term Bitcoin investors are selling at a loss, creating potential accumulation opportunities.
• Indicators like MVRV and NUPL suggest that the Bitcoin market remains in an upward trend.

Bitcoin’s decline has created a prime opportunity for accumulation, according to CryptoQuant analyst Mac_D.

The token has shown no signs of strength following its sell-off from weekly highs of $103,000 on Monday, but long-term metrics suggest the market’s upward trend remains intact.

Analyst MAC_D reported on Thursday that the current bearish sentiment aligns with a dip in Bitcoin’s short-term SOPR (Spent Output Profit Ratio), which has fallen to 0.987.

This metric indicates that investors holding Bitcoin for less than six months are now selling at a loss.

MAC_D noted that such periods of short-term investor losses have historically presented favorable accumulation opportunities.

“When short-term investors incur losses, long-term cycle indicators like MVRV, NUPL, and the Puell Multiple often show that the market remains in an upward trend,” he said.

He added that the current correction does not suggest a cycle peak, and savvy investors may seize the opportunity to accumulate Bitcoin at discounted prices.

Historical data indicates that long-term investors often step in to accumulate Bitcoin during market corrections as short-term holders sell at a loss.

This behavior, often observed during market corrections, can set the stage for a price rebound as selling pressure subsides. At press time, Bitcoin is trading at $93,500.
