Today’s headlines:
Bitcoin has continued to range over the past week, still unable to break $100,000. After two attempts to stay above $98,000, $BTC price is now back down at $95,166. Versus this time last week price is down -3.47%.
Figure 1: Bitcoin price action over the past week. The full extent of the ranging can be seen on the past month's chart, which shows $BTC price struggling to stay above $98,000 since 22 Nov. That followed the run-up which resulted in $BTC being up +37.18% over the past month.
Figure 2: Bitcoin performance over the past month. The Big StoryDo ‘normies’ care yet? This week, we take a look at five key charts to get the latest view on whether new participants are entering the Bitcoin space and whether or not the market is becoming overheated. 1. Bitcoin’s Relative Growth A key driver of attention around Bitcoin is driven by its price performance - and how that compares to other assets investors could be investing in. Over the past year Bitcoin has stormed ahead of other potential investments such as Tesla, Apple stock, the S&P500, and the Dow.
Figure 3: Bitcoin’s relative price performance. 2. Address growth If new people are actually coming to invest in Bitcoin, there should be a significant growth in the number of addresses holding at least $10 worth of bitcoin in them. That is exactly what we have been seeing in recent weeks and months. The number of addresses that hold more than $10 worth of bitcoin now stands at over 36 million!

Figure 5: Google search trends for Bitcoin. 4. ETF Daily Flows As more institutions begin to be able to access the Bitcoin spot ETFs, we are seeing increases in the green bars on the chart below, which represent daily net inflows. We expect this trend to continue and, in fact, accelerate when $BTC finally breaks above $100k. It has never been easier to buy bitcoin, and that means both individuals and institutions now have simple access to the hardest asset on the planet.
Figure 6: Bitcoin spot ETF daily flows. 5. Hot New Money A key indication of when new money is entering the ecosystem is when the cost-basis value held in new bitcoin addresses begins to increase rapidly. That is what we can track on the Bitcoin Cycle Capital Flows chart. This particular view shows the % of cost-basis value held in addresses that have only had bitcoin in them for less than a month. When the red on the chart increases it shows that these newer wallets are proportionally holding more cost-basis value than longer-term bitcoin holders.
Figure 7: Cost-basis value in addresses that have held bitcoin for less than one month. When this metric gets close to 50% it has historically indicated that the market is overheating and the bull cycle may be approaching its end. For now, this metric does not appear to be close to levels seen in prior cycles. So, while there may be a clear increase in new participants entering the Bitcoin ecosystem, we do not appear to be near the cycle top just yet.
