    Bitcoin metrics

    • Stock to flow

    This model views bitcoin as a commodity comparable to commodities such as gold, silver or platinum. These commodities are known as "store-of-value commodities" because they retain their value over time due to their relative scarcity.

    For commodities of value, such as gold, platinum, or silver, a high ratio indicates that they are not primarily consumed for industrial purposes. Instead, much of it is held as a cash hedge, resulting in a higher stock-to-flow ratio.

    A higher ratio indicates that the commodity is becoming increasingly scarce and therefore more valuable as a store of value.

     

     

    How to look at the chart?

     

    In the chart above, the price is overlaid on top of the stock-to-flow ratio line. As we can see, the price keeps following bitcoin's stock-to-flow ratio over time. Thus, the theory suggests that we can predict where the price might go by observing the projected stock-to-flow ratio line, which can be calculated as we know the approximate timeline for bitcoin production in the future.

     

    The colored dots on the price line of this chart show the number of days until the next bitcoin halving event (sometimes called "halving"). This is an event in which the reward for mining new blocks is halved, meaning miners get 50% less bitcoins for checking transactions. 

     

    • BTC Exchanges Reserves.

     

    The unrealized profit of BTC investors shows a strong divergence from the price, which could signal an impending rise in the market. Combined with a positive end to the Fed meeting, a further bullish trend may keep investors pleased in the coming months

     

     

     

    Funding Rates

    Positive funding rates indicate speculators are bullish and long-traders pay funding to short-traders. 

    Negative funding rates imply that speculators are bearish and short-traders pay funds to long-traders.

     

     

    PS: Ставки финансирования (0,01%) - черный цвет, это нейтральная ситуация. Ставки финансирования (ниже 0,01%) - зеленый цвет, это бычья ситуация. Ставки финансирования (выше 0,01%) - красный цвет, это медвежья ситуация. Чем сильнее медвежьи или бычьи настроения, тем темнее цвет.
