Historical data of an on-chain indicator could suggest Bitcoin may not be in danger of another sharp crash right now.<\/p>\n
As pointed out by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post<\/a>, signs are that another crash similar to Q3 2018 isn’t likely to happen currently.<\/p>\n The relevant indicator here is the “spot exchange depositing addresses<\/a>,” which is a measure of the total number of Bitcoin wallet addresses that are making send transactions to centralized spot exchanges right now.<\/p>\n Generally, investors deposit their coins on spot exchanges for selling purposes. Thus, a spike in this metric can be bearish for the price of the crypto as it could be a hint at dumping behavior from a large number of addresses.<\/p>\n On the other hand, low values imply not many holders are adding to the selling pressure in the market at the moment.<\/p>\n Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin spot exchange depositing addresses over the last few years:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As you can see in the above graph, the quant has marked the relevant zones of trend for the Bitcoin spot exchange depositing addresses.<\/p>\n It seems like usually around periods where this indicator has sharply risen up to local tops, the price of BTC has also observed a top and subsequently declined.<\/p>\nLooks like the value of the metric has been going down in recent months | Source: CryptoQuant<\/a><\/pre>\n
