The ongoing bull cycle has caused a notable rise in activity in the crypto market. For Bitcoin, CryptoQuant projects a $146,000 cycle high. In the meantime, the firm predicts Ethereum to follow a historical pattern in its MVRV Ratio to enter a second bull market. Despite the positivity in the top two cryptocurrencies, a growing number of investors are rushing into Rexas Finance instead. At just $0.125, many analysts believe this undervalued crypto could lead the next bull market run.
CryptoQuant Projects $146,000 for Bitcoin Cycle Peak
According to crypto-analytic outfit, CryptoQuant, Bitcoin’s price cycle could peak at around $146,000. The firm claims to get this projection from the average acquisition cost of Bitcoin across the network—the realized price valuation. With Bitcoin reaching comparable highs in 2021, the realized price has been a decent gauge of market cycle peaks. Meanwhile, several macroeconomic events, institutional adoption’s ongoing upward momentum, and Bitcoin ETF interest might drive BTC above $146,000 this cycle. It is important to note that Bitcoin’s path is rocky. Geopolitical conflicts and unfavorable legislation, among other market elements, could possibly stop Bitcoin from reaching the projected high.
BTC trades at $95,685 as of this writing, down just 2% over the previous day. Should the crypto market remain favorable, Bitcoin’s ascent might quicken, dragging Ethereum and other altcoins behind it.
Ethereum Enters ‘Second Bull Market’
According to a CryptoQuant analyst, Ethereum’s second bull market appears to be in shape. The forecasts show that at $4,000 in Q1 2024, the second bull run will be noticeably more dramatic than the first. The analyst pointed to a similar MVRV Ratio in the Ethereum price chart. During the year’s first quarter, the indicator surged to a really high level as the price surge was in progress. However, the indicator cooled back down in the bearish consolidation that followed the run, returning to the neutral 1 level.
The MVRV Ratio has once more reversed upward with the most recent increase in cryptocurrencies. Interestingly, the quant on the chart also observed this trend during the previous two bull markets. Both runs comprised two periods in which the Ethereum MVRV Ratio peaked, and a cooldown occurred in between. ETH trades at $3600 as of this writing, a 2% drop…
