The recent decline in Bitcoin’s [BTC] Puell Multiple hinted at the possibility of a new bull cycle, pseudonymous CryptoQuant analyst Crypto Dan found in a new report.
BTC’s Puell Multiple tracks the profit miners on the network make by comparing BTC’s daily issuance value to its 365-day moving average.
