The world’s largest cryptocurrency Bitcoin has recently caught up northward momentum by gaining over 60% in the last three months. The bulls and institutional players have been raging in with the Bitcoin network activity also picking up strongly. On-chain data provider Santiment reports:

Bitcoin (BTC) On-chain Metrics
The on-chain developments for the Bitcoin network are very healthy. Data from Glassnode shows that a massive 86% of Bitcoin addresses have turned profitable for the first time in three months.
Furthermore, citing data from Glassnode, Chinese journalist Colin Wu reports: “The number of long-term held or lost BTC has reached 7,131,084, accounting for about 33.96% of the total, which is the highest point in the past five months. This part of the Token can be regarded as out of circulation”.
At the current price point, the Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index is showing up at 76 levels. This suggests extreme greed in the market at the current BTC price levels. However, the index score is still than 95, last seen in February 2021. It will be interesting to see how the BTC price moves further from here.
