2/ First: volume precedes price.
And #bitcoinhttps://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> active address counts are an OG on-chain leading indicator of volume. https://mobile.twitter.com/woonomic/status/1311259900517867520">https://mobile.twitter.com/woonomic/...
And #bitcoin
3/ We typically see 5-10k new #bitcoin https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> addresses / day.
That figure grew it its highest level in over two years last week, peaking above 22k.

4/ Where are these new #bitcoin https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> addresses coming from?
We’ll never know for sure — but here& #39;s my suspicion:
It& #39;s a story from last week that mostly passed under the radar — despite being the most bullish force I can imagine.

5/ Last week the Chinese government began a coordinated marketing campaign to focus Chinese retail investor psyche on crypto.
Yes, this is really happening. https://www.coindesk.com/china-crypto-best-performing-asset">https://www.coindesk.com/china-cry...

7/ The Chinese government seems to want to ignite the bull market. https://mobile.twitter.com/cz_binance/status/1309373959410864129">https://mobile.twitter.com/cz_binanc...
8/ But doesn’t China have a long track record of suppressing crypto?
Yes...but the reality is more complex. Simplified:
Chinese leadership promotes whatever narrative benefits their position, at any given time.

9/ Why the new narrative? My guess:
China dominates $BTC mining — and no doubt holds more $BTC than any other country, by a wide margin.
#Bitcoinhttps://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> is China’s national treasure.
Sooner or later, maximizing $BTC& #39;s potential becomes an unavoidable economic incentive.

10/ The recent explosion in #Tether printing might have been a leading precursor to China& #39;s marketing campaign.
China dominates $USDT volume globally -- and #Tether dominates their fiat onramp liquidity.

11/ And of course, #Tether printing has been an effective leading indicator for years.

12/ I suspect Chinese retail buying interest helped #bitcoin https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> absorb last week’s bearish headlines. https://mobile.twitter.com/iamjosephyoung/status/1311945753909108736">https://mobile.twitter.com/iamjoseph...
13/ I’d love to validate the overall theory with OkEx, Huobi & Binance volume, but it doesn’t work that way.
New retail buyers won’t make a statistically significant impact on exchange volume that& #39;s dominated by much larger players, already in excess of a billion dollars/day.

14/ Daily active addresses likely offers advanced signals on big moves throughout this bull market.
A great lens on that is Active Address Sentiment — the brainchild of my friends at @decentrader.

15/ Active Address Sentiment is a cross-discipline indicator:
It does technical analysis on fundamental data.
It’s a leading indicator with a history of solid bull market signals.

16/ Bottom line -- this news is incredibly bullish, and appears to have fundamental confirmation.
I definitely I expect more shakeouts and sideways price action moving forward.
But I& #39;m fundamentally bullish on $BTC.
And I think hodlers will be grinning by Christmas.https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🎄" title="Weihnachtsbaum" aria-label="Emoji: Weihnachtsbaum">
