• 😀 Stock-to-flow values may not be precise but offer valuable insights into Bitcoin's future price movements based on halving events.
• 😀 Bitcoin's price is expected to follow the seasonal pattern seen after previous halvings, with lag between model predictions and market adjustments.

Q & A

What is the current Bitcoin all-time high according to the speaker?

The current Bitcoin all-time high is $99,800, which is only $200 short of $100,000.

Why is the Bitcoin price movement in March this year considered unusual?

The price movement in March was unusual because the new all-time high occurred before the Bitcoin halving, which historically happens after halving events.

What is the significance of the RSI (Relative Strength Index) in Bitcoin’s price analysis?

RSI measures the strength of an asset's price movement. Above 50 indicates an uptrend (bull market), and below 50 indicates a downtrend (bear market). Currently, the RSI is at 75, indicating a strong bullish trend.

What are the key indicators used by the speaker to analyze Bitcoin’s market?

The speaker uses RSI, moving average, realized price, and stock-to-flow as key indicators to analyze Bitcoin’s market trends.

How does the speaker interpret the current phase of Bitcoin’s market?

The speaker interprets the current phase as transitioning from a bear market (blue RSI) to a bull market (red RSI), with Bitcoin expected to continue rising in price in the coming months.

What role does the 200-week moving average play in Bitcoin’s price movements?

The 200-week moving average acts as a floor for Bitcoin’s price during bear markets. In bull markets, Bitcoin’s price tends to diverge away from this moving average.

What is the speaker’s expectation regarding Bitcoin's price in the next six months?

The speaker expects more all-time highs in the next six months, with the possibility of Bitcoin reaching a 3x to 10x increase, which could push the price to as high as $300,000 to $1 million.

How does the realized price differ from the moving average, and what does it indicate?

The realized price is based on the actual transaction volumes on the Bitcoin network and is more sensitive to market volume. It tends to rise faster than the moving average during bull markets and reflects the sharp increase in volume during such periods.

What is the stock-to-flow model, and what does it predict for Bitcoin’s price?

The stock-to-flow model predicts Bitcoin's value based on its scarcity, with halvings increasing its scarcity and thus its value. The model forecasts a target price of $500,000 for Bitcoin in the 2024-2028 period.

Does the speaker believe that the stock-to-flow model is perfectly accurate?

No, the speaker acknowledges that all models are wrong to some extent, but believes the stock-to-flow model provides valuable insights into Bitcoin's long-term potential, even if it is not precise in its predictions.
