🔸 There is a notable similarity in market strength to that observed in April 2019, albeit the current market is yet to breach the Long-Term Holder Realized Price.
🔸 In both the 2018-19 and 2022-23 bear markets, all three realized prices converged, indicating a return to a homogeneous holder base (where the average BTC holder carries an approximately equivalent cost basis, regardless of holding time).
🔸 The Short-Term Holder Realized Price is lower than the others, reflecting a major capitulation style event after FTX collapsed, indicating a significant volume of coins changed hands afterwards.

Nature got so cleaned up that the real hodlers came back in the house 😅

4-year halving cycles.

2022 was the cheapest year to use the Bitcoin network if to calculate costs in Satoshi (SATS).
In the dollar equivalent, the cheapest year was 2012, when the network could be used almost free of charge.
The highest level of block space utilization was recorded in 2017 (over 90%).

It seems your opportunity to buy GBTC shares at an almost 50% discount to the net asset value has passed as the margin between the price of GBTC and the bitcoin backing it narrowed. The discount reached 36.26% on January 13th, the lowest it has been since early November.
In general, prices across the board rose as inflation in the United States showed a 0.1% month-on-month decrease in December.
It’s a similar story for ETHE, with shares in both products showing positive price performance in the new year but still trading much lower than the NAV.
Grayscale’s CEO was not particularly optimistic about GBTC going into 2023, citing its woes over its ability to convert to a spot-based ETF. Grayscale filed suit against the SEC for rejecting its application, but the regulator so far is standing its ground on its decision.

Options IVs have fallen towards all-time lows across a set of different expiries. For instance, the IV of 1mth, 3mth, and 6mth expiries sit at all-time lows.

Despite bearish BTC price action throughout 2022, activity on the Bitcoin network has remained stable. The number of active Bitcoin wallets was flat in 2022, at ~4.5M — inline with the numbers from the past four years.
Looking at a four-year cycle, the active wallet count is even trending upwards slightly. But at the same time, it’s clear that active address growth has been stagnant since roughly Q1 2021.
Active address levels have found a higher base than in the previous cycle, so we haven’t seen a significant exodus of users from the Bitcoin network. But we haven’t seen significant growth, either.
Instead, we’ve seen active wallets on Bitcoin remain relatively flat throughout all of 2022. Even when they peaked in 2020, they barely surpassed the prior high from 2017.
