April witnessed unique trading patterns in the crypto markets, with Bitcoin attracting new buyers and Ethereum displaying distinct behavior. Data analysis by Murphy using Glassnode’s RSI indicator revealed contrasting investor actions for the two leading cryptocurrencies. 📈
Bitcoin’s rebound, fueled by a bottom-forming price surge and subsequent recovery, attracted new investors who emerged from recent profit-taking. This suggests an increase in market confidence, with investors choosing to hold their assets despite past selling tendencies during brief recoveries. 🚀
Ethereum, however, showed limited new buyer activity since February. Despite occasional dips, discerning buyers capitalized on price lows, indicating cautious optimism about the future. 🧐
Market analysts are optimistic about Bitcoin’s performance, with Arthur Hayes, Co-founder of BitMEX, predicting an increase in volatility and potential upside for the cryptocurrency in the medium term. 📈
