📊 Is This The Most Reliable BTC Bottom Signal?

- In July 2022, the Puell multiple, one of the most reliable bottom signals for BTC, fell to 0.34. This is the lowest the indicator has gone since 2019.
- Even as the indicator currently sits at 0.54, values under 0.50 have historically marked price bottoms and are considered as good accumulation zones.
- So, what exactly is the Puell multiple? Well, it’s the daily issuance of BTC (in USD) divided by the 365-day moving average of the daily issuance of BTC (in USD).
- In other words, it compares the short-term revenue of BTC miners to its longer term trend. A lower score equates to lower revenue for miners.
- Since 2014, the Puell multiple has gone below 0.50 only 4 times: during the previous market bottoms of 2015 and 2019, the Covid-induced crash of Spring 2020, and most recently in July 2022.
- Although the indicator is not great for smaller time frames, it does specify a good accumulation range for long-term investors.
- Even as the Puell multiple seems to indicate a market bottom, other indicators must be used in tandem to conduct a meaningful analysis.

Uniswap Labs NFT Head on Sudoswap
at the moment @sudoswap is the leading nft hyper-structure imo
any nft owner can now become their own marketplace. just deposit nfts and eth and set your fee on-top of the 0.5% protocol fee
adoption is a lot easier by focusing on b2c
