Market Moves by Omkar Godbole Bitcoin tapped new record highs above $68,000 early Tuesday amid blockchain data pointing to renewed sell-side liquidity crunch.
"Over 85% of the coin supply has remained dormant since August 2021. Investors are just not spending their coins," blockchain analytics firm Glassnode said in a weekly report published Monday. "The supply dynamics paint a compelling picture of long-term holders hanging onto the vast majority of their stack."
Ether's rally continued with prices topping $4,800 for the first time. The native token of Ethereum's blockchain may soon face its own supply crisis as more than 8.2 million ether are now locked into the ETH 2.0 staking contract, with another 8 million locked into decentralized finance protocols.
Further, since Oct. 1, centralized exchanges have seen an outflow of more than 850,000 ETH, according to data provided by IntoTheBlock.
Options market data shows the number of open positions in ETH call options or bullish bets has crossed the 1 million mark – twice more than open interest put options offering downside protection. Other cryptocurrencies like Cardano's ADA token and litecoin (LTC) also picked up a bid while livepeer (LPT) surged 50%.
While sentiment remains bullish, low trading volumes could be a cause for concern. "Bitcoin trade volume [for USD pairs] today is about half its average from January to May. Ethereum volume has fared better, recently returning to just below January levels, although it sharply lags May volumes," data firm Kaiko research noted in the research note published Monday.
"Let's hope a price crash is not all that's needed to boost today's lagging volumes, because it seems that today's all time highs are not enough to draw in the amount of new investors we saw earlier this year," Kaiko added.  According to technical analysis rules, a low-volume price rally is often short-lived. However, that does not necessarily imply correction. It is quite likely that the trading volume may have shifted from USD pairs to stablecoin pairs.
In traditional markets, the risk remained under pressure, with the Japanese yen crosses trading lower. The S&P 500 formed a Doji candle on Monday, signaling uptrend fatigue. A pullback in equities may weigh over cryptocurrencies. Read the original story here: Open Positions in Ether 'Calls' Hits 1 Million Mark as Traders Pile Onto Higher Strike Options
Technician's Take by Omkar Godbole  Bull Pennant in ETH/BTC  ETH/BTC's weekly chart (Source: TradingView) Ether-bitcoin's (ETH/BTC) weekly chart shows a bull pennant – a technical pattern marked by converging trendlines, indicating an impending continuation of the ether-bitcoin ratio's upward move from 0.023 to 0.08 seen early this year.
A breakout would imply a shift in market leadership to ether.
