  • Report: Bitcoin Shows Signs of Repeating 2022 Trading Patterns

    On May 21, CryptoQuant stated in a report that Bitcoin's recent price movements resemble those from over four years ago. CryptoQuant noted that Bitcoin's recent rise to around $82,000 is similar to a surge seen back in early 2022, when Bitcoin started at approximately $44,000 and climbed to over $72,000, the then historical high, by March of that year. Subsequently, Bitcoin fell back to around $16,000 before gradually recovering, reaching a near historical high of nearly $125,000 last October. CryptoQuant believes a similar situation may occur now. 'As stagnant stablecoin liquidity and negative price momentum simultaneously erode comprehensive signals, CryptoQuant's bullish score index has fallen from 40 to 20, entering an extremely bearish zone,' CryptoQuant stated.
