- BTC was experiencing a strong downward momentum at press time, as BTC dropped by 2.45%.
- An analyst predicted a bearish reversal, based on two momentum indicators.
Bitcoin [BTC], the largest cryptocurrency, has experienced extreme volatility in 2024. The year has seen BTC surge to a record high of $73794 in March. Since then, however, it failed to maintain its momentum, hitting a low of $49K.
As of this writing, BTC was trading at $55774 after a 2.45% decline on daily charts. This drop continued a monthly long of decline. Over the past 30 days, it has dropped by 2%.
Therefore, the press time, market conditions raised questions about whether Bitcoin was on the verge of further decline.
Inasmuch, CryptoQuant analyst Yansei Dent suggested BTC was experiencing a bearish reversal, citing MVRV and Active Address.

Based on this analysis, the 30DMA dropped below the 365DMA, indicating a slowdown in active addresses, which is a bearish signal for the near term. Reduced new and active addresses suggested less on-chain activity.
Further, the analysis showed that the 50DMA was trending downwards, although it was still below the 200DMA. However, if 50DMA falls below 200DMA, it signaled a bearish trend.
Therefore, both active address momentum (30DMA below 365DMA) and the possible convergence of the 50 DMA and 200 DMA suggested the market is entering a short-term bearish phase.
