From Bitcoin going from bearish to neutral to Kraken Delisting XMR across the entire European Economic Area, here are some of the top stories in the crypto space.
Bitcoin (BTC) no longer looks bearish based on several key indicators, says a prominent blockchain analyst.
Checkmate told his 98,300 Watcher on media platform X that Bitcoin’s Active Value to Investor Value (AVIV) ratio has shifted from bearish to neutral.
AVIV is the ratio between the active Capital , which excludes lost or inactive Token , and the actual capitalization of investors, the price at which BTC was purchased. This indicator helps assess whether Bitcoin is in an overbought or oversold condition.

Next, the analyst said the short-term Bitcoin (STH) holder supply metric, which tracks the number of assets held for less than 155 days, is starting to turn bullish.
“Based on short-term holdings, the Bitcoin market is no longer ‘volatile’. This means that the majority of recent buyers have returned, which is likely to improve sentiment.”

Ultimately, the analyst said Bitcoin appears to be moving in tandem with gold and stocks, which are in an uptrend.
“Bitcoin is now correlated with Gold and stocks over the past 30 days. That’s pretty good, as all of these assets are hitting new ATHs.”
