Bitcoin has surged higher over the past 48 hours due to positive fundamental trends. The cryptocurrency, which traded as low as $10,400 just a week ago, now trades for $11,400. Less than a few hours ago, the coin was trading just shy of $11,500.<\/p>\n

BTC’s ongoing move higher has convinced many analysts that a larger bull trend is brewing under the surface. Coin Metrics, a top blockchain analytics and data firm, made this much clear just recently.<\/p>\n

The firm released an extensive Twitter thread noting that while there were fundamental factors that drove lower this past month, Bitcoin is strong from an on-chain perspective. They shared a handful of metrics indicating that BTC is in a very similar spot now as the coin was prior to 2017’s exponential explosion.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Bull Trend Is Brewing: CoinMetrics Analysis<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Coin Metrics, a top blockchain analytics firm, recently shared a swath of metrics indicating that Bitcoin remains in a long-term bull trend despite any uncertainty in the near term:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Bitcoin MVRV, which attempts to track the profitability of the average BTC investor, is “also holding the same trajectory it did during the 2016\/17 bull market.”<\/li>\n
  • The supply of BTC on exchanges is starting to decrease at a strong pace. This suggests that there are more BTC holders, which should drive prices higher over time as on-exchange demand dries up.<\/li>\n
  • ” Despite the recent volatility, the number of Bitcoin whales continues to increase, indicating the growing number of large holders that have positive expectations for the future of Bitcoin.”<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    1\/9 Bitcoin has performed remarkably these past few weeks despite:
    -Most of DeFi falling 50-80%
    -CFTC charging BitMEX
    -POTUS contracting Covid
    -Delayed stimulus talks
    -FCA announcing a derivative ban for retail<\/p>\n

    Why? Let\u2019s see what we can find on-chain<\/p>\n
