The Bitcoin market has recently exhibited a distinctive volatility, with a key metric - the number of active addresses - experiencing a significant decline since the beginning of 2024. This phenomenon was often associated with a peak in Bitcoin prices followed by a correction phase during previous historical cycles, particularly during the bull markets of 2017 and 2021. However, it is noteworthy that the current market dynamics differ from these precedents. CryptoQuant's latest research report indicates that Bitcoin prices have not followed the traditional downward trajectory seen in conventional cycles but have instead shown a 'range-bound' state, characterized by fluctuation within a relatively wide range without any clear upward or downward trend. This lack of a clear direction in price movements leaves the future of the Bitcoin market shrouded in uncertainty, necessitating caution and risk management for investors.
