Following a significant haircut in May, the price of Bitcoin has been meandering between $30K and $40K for the better part of a month. While some analysts are relieved at the fact that Bitcoin has not crashed through the $30K support line, and, heck, may even be building momentum to move back above $40K, others are not so sure about the future of BTC.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, Bitcoin\u2019s 7-day chart appears to have crossed into green territory for the first time in a great while. At press time, BTC\u2019s 24-hour gains were sitting at roughly 2.6 per cent, while the seven-day price chart showed gains of 1.4 per cent.<\/p>\n

Some Good News for Bitcoin<\/h2>\n

Additionally, Bitcoin has seen a bit of positive news in recent weeks that may be bolstering its price after it collapsed in May. On Wednesday, the nation of El Salvador became the first country in the world to adopt bitcoin as legal tender.<\/p>\n

Michael Sonnenshein, the Chief Executive of Grayscale Investments, said on CNBC\u2019s ‘ETF Edge’ earlier this week that: \u201cAs we think about nation states and central banks exploring digital currencies, we\u2019re not surprised to see places that have historically relied on the dollar or folks who have experienced hyperinflation exploring the potential merits of digital currency.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe would not be surprised to see states and central banks beginning to think about adding bitcoin and other crypto to their balance sheet.\u201d<\/p>\n

Additionally, the conclusion of the Miami Bitcoin conference seems to have pumped a new bout of enthusiasm into the cryptocurrency industry (though positive COVID test results may be a mitigating factor).<\/p>\n

Speaking of the event on the same episode of ‘ETF Edge’, Osprey Funds founder and CEO, Greg King said that: \u201cIt feels a lot like 2017 felt but with a broader base. It\u2019s taking the movement forward from where it\u2019s been over the last 12 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Beyond El Salvador and Miami, a group of North American Bitcoin mining companies formally debuted The Bitcoin Mining Council on Thursday with the goal of addressing concerns about the amount of energy used in cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Bitcoin Mining Council is a voluntary and open forum of Bitcoin miners committed to the network and its core principles,\u201d MicroStrategy Inc. Chief Executive Officer, Michael Saylor, who helped to form the association, wrote on Twitter, with a call to \u201cJoin us.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nThe Bitcoin Mining Council is a voluntary and open forum of Bitcoin miners committed to the network and its core principles. We promote transparency, share best practices, and educate the public on the benefits of #Bitcoin and Bitcoin mining. Join us. \ud83d\ude4fhttps:\/\/t.co\/vGPGD3TA5p<\/p>\n

What Does Bitcoin\u2019s Stock-to-Flow Model Say?<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin\u2019s stock-to-flow model has hit a rebound level that has not been seen since Bitcoin\u2019s all-time high in 2017, a factor that some investors and market participants could find relieving after a month of price stagnancy.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s a long time since [Bitcoin\u2019s] price has been this far below [the stock-to-flow] line,\u201d wrote Philip Swift, Creator of LookIntoBitcoin, on Twitter. \u201cThe Divergence oscillator at [the] bottom of the chart is highlighted by the orange dotted line and arrows to show comparable historical periods…#bitcoin price rebounded hard from such divergence previously (sic).\u201d<\/p>\n

\nS2F model:<\/p>\n

\u2014 Philip Swift (@PositiveCrypto) June 10, 2021<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

A stock-to-flow measures the relationship between the currently available amount of an asset and its production rate. While this model is typically applied to commodities (i.e. precious metals), some analysts have applied it to Bitcoin: the amount of circulating BTC available is measured against the amount of new BTC that are being mined.<\/p>\n

How Effective Is Bitcoin\u2019s Stock-to-Flow Model?<\/h2>\n

The purpose of a stock-to-flow model is to show how much supply of an asset or resource (BTC, in this case) enters the market each year relative to the total supply. According to Binance Academy, \u201cthe higher the Stock to Flow ratio, the less new supply enters the market relative to the total supply.\u201d And, therefore, an asset with a higher Stock to Flow ratio has higher scarcity, and should therefore retain value well over the long-term (at least, in theory).<\/p>\n

Measuring Bitcoin\u2019s price against stock-to-flow appears to have been originated by a pseudonymous Bitcoin institutional investor who goes by the name PlanB. While Philip Swift optimistically compared what is happening in the stock-to-flow model at this current moment with what happened in 2017, CoinTelegraph reported that even PlanB is nervous about the future of Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

According to CoinTelegraph, this model \u201chas been widely praised and is the leading valuation model for bitcoin proponents.\u201d However, some analysts find the model to be fundamentally flawed.<\/p>\n

\u201cSF has achieved viral popularity and inspired rags-to-riches dreams for those gambling it all on the future of bitcoin,\u201d CoinDesk reported in June of 2020. \u201cHowever, we believe the model\u2019s accuracy will likely be about as successful at forecasting bitcoin\u2019s future price as the astrological models of the past were at predicting financial outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n

2013 All Over Again?<\/h2>\n

However, if the stock-to-flow model is to be trusted, PlanB said on June 1st that while Bitcoin\u2019s latest price movements do have some similarities with 2017, Bitcoin\u2019s latest price movements are much more reminiscent of the year 2013.<\/p>\n

\u201cNew dot: May close $37,341.. -35% .. we knew bitcoin would not go up in a straight line and several -35% drops are possible (and indeed likely) in a bull market,\u201d he wrote on Twitter, adding that BTC\u2019s movements were \u201cStarting to look like 2013. [Stock to flow] model intact.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, while there are some important differences between Bitcoin\u2019s price movement in 2013 and its movements in 2017, both years have something important in common: each of them saw a two-tiered run-up to a new all-time high. According to CoinTelegraph, \u201cThe first peak was followed by a significant drawdown in each instance, which then reversed to spawn a run to a new top.\u201d<\/p>\n

If history repeats itself a third time, Bitcoin\u2019s second bull run of 2021 will take place later this year, which could lead BTC far beyond its previous all-time high of roughly $60K. In fact, PlanB believes that $100,000 is still in the cards for BTC. The stock-to-flow calls for an average price of either $100,000 or $288,000 between 2021 and 2024.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody Wanted to Buy #Bitcoin at $60,000, Nobody Wants to Buy Now.\u201d<\/h2>\n

However, not everyone is so optimistic. Fortune<\/em> reported this morning that Bookmakers at US-Bookies.com have \u201craised the odds that Bitcoin drops to $10,000 this year to 8-to-11\u2014a 57.9% implied probability.\u201d<\/p>\n

And indeed, BTC investors seem to be fearful that Bitcoin is in for further drops down the line.<\/p>\n

BItcoin market analyst, Micha\u00ebl van de Poppe (@CryptoMichNL) wrote on Twitter that: \u201cEverybody wanted to buy #Bitcoin at $60,000, nobody wants to buy now. Why? People are scared of red candles and expect a further dip.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nEverybody wanted to buy #Bitcoin at $60,000, nobody wants to buy now.<\/p>\n

However, as BTC loses its grip, altcoins appear to be stepping up to the plate. At the beginning of 2021, BTC\u2019s market dominance was over 70 percent. At press time, that figure had fallen below 44 percent.<\/p>\n
