The overall crypto markets lost some ground over the week with the Total crypto market cap falling below the $2 trillion level.

Historically, the trend in the inflows and outflows of Bitcoin from exchanges has been a key indicator in determining a bull or a bear cycle. Currently, the outflow of Bitcoin from exchanges is on a steady upsurge. Going by the rate of BTC’s being withdrawn from the exchanges, on-chain data suggests that a strong bullish cycle is on the cards. And it is not just the institutional investors that are accumulating BTC, the addresses holding between 1 to 100 Bitcoins are on the rise. With this data, the overall crypto markets appear upbeat in the weeks to come.


Following are the highlights of the week:-

  • MicroStrategy buys an additional $190 million worth of Bitcoin.
  • Luna Foundation Guard buys a further $231 million of Bitcoin.
  • SEC approves Teucrium Bitcoin Futures fund.
  • UFC to start paying bonuses to fighters in cryptocurrency.
  • Strike launches Shopify integration bringing Bitcoin Lightning payments to merchants.
  • EU bans providing high-value crypto services to Russia.
  • Google search volumes for crypto assets continue to decline.

Over the longer period, Bitcoin has been consolidating around the $39K to $42K levels. The crypto markets were expected to be volatile before the Federal Reserve’s meeting. However, the markets remained unfazed by the Fed’s interest hike of 25 BPS.
