• Coinbase Premium: Positive✅
• Exchange Reserves: Extremely Low✅
• MVRV Ratio: 2,57 (cycle top above 3.7)✅
• Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL): 61 (cycle top above 75)✅

Looking at the on-chain data, we can see that the market liquidity is on the rise as stablecoins like $USDT continue to grow and flow into exchanges👀

Since the U.S. Presidential election, $3.2 billion in $USDT has entered exchanges—marking the highest net flow since November 2021🤔

This surge in liquidity could pave the way for higher crypto prices in the coming weeks🚀

Crypto Market Pulse 👀

• Over the past 3 days, ETFs bought $2,3 Billion worth of $BTC 👀
• Over the past 3 days, ETFs bought $861 Million worth of $ETH 🤑
• Funding rates dropped after the initial push higher✅
• Exchange reserves continue to drop👌
• Below are liquidation heatmaps showing areas of interest🤔

Our bet is that we will go for the $95k liquidations first, push above $100k $BTC, trap more longs and then drop back down towards $80k. If we get this push up and we will see that the on-chain indicators are getting overheated, we will move 20-30% into $USDT to hedge our position for a potential correction.
