Has the crypto market bottomed? Look out for these 5 keywords

Is the crypto market primed to rebound? Santiment believes several words uttered on social media could hold the answer. 

There are at least five keywords that could signal a crypto market bottom, according to crypto research firm Santiment.

Bitcoin headed for breakout or breakdown? Analysts weigh in

Analysts say upcoming rate cuts could be a boon for Bitcoin’s price action but the market is still in “wait and see” mode.

Crypto analysts are tipping three major events in the coming weeks that could drive up the price of Bitcoin, depending on how the market reacts to them. 

For the last seven months, Bitcoin has traded in a downtrending range between $74,000 and $52,000 and investors have grown increasingly restless about whether or not BTC will breakout to the upside or if its price will continue to crumble. 

Coinstash co-founder Mena Theodorou told Cointelegraph that the next major move for Bitcoin will hinge on how the market responds to upcoming political and regulatory shifts in the United States during election season, as well as upcoming macroeconomic data.

2 key Bitcoin metrics signal steady bull cycle — ‘No bubble’ in sight

The metrics suggest that Bitcoin is unlikely to be overvalued at current levels, and its price action is developing “steadily without significant anomalies or sharp jumps.”

Although Bitcoin’s price is yet to reclaim its March all-time high, an analyst claims two key metrics show that the bull market remains strong and steady with no signs of a deep correction.

In an Aug. 18 report, CryptoQuant researcher Axel Adler looked to two key metrics — the bubble vs. crush market structure and the ratio between the difference of market cap and realized cap and the standard deviation of market cap (MVRV-Z score) — as signals that Bitcoin’s current price action is tracking a healthy path forward. 

“We can see that the current bull cycle is developing quite steadily without significant anomalies or sharp jumps,” Adler added.

Bitcoin dominance — the ratio of Bitcoin’s market capitalization to the rest of crypto — has notched a new yearly high of 58% amid a crypto and stock market tumble.

Bitcoin's (BTC) dominance briefly touched 58.1% in the early hours of Aug. 5 amid a sudden sell-off that saw Ether drop as far as 18% in two hours, while BTC fell 10% in the same time frame. 

IG Markets analyst Tony Sycamore told Cointelegraph that the drawdown serves as a reminder that Bitcoin and crypto assets more broadly sit very much at the “pointy end” of the risk asset spectrum.
