Recent reports from CryptoQuant analysts on the QuickTake platform highlight a notable decline in market sentiment across Bitcoin and altcoin investors.
According to Crypto Dan, a leading analyst at CryptoQuant, “After Bitcoin’s recent failure to breach the $72,000 mark, there is a noticeable cooling off of investor enthusiasm.”
Bitcoin Slump In Activity Signals Market Adjustment
Data reveals a significant drop in active Bitcoin addresses, signaling a reduction in transactional activity since peaking in March.
This downtrend reflects Bitcoin’s recent price corrections and prolonged periods of sideways movement. Crypto Dan suggests that the sentiment among altcoin investors may be deteriorating even further, hinting that we may be nearing the end of a market adjustment period.

In a similar vein, CryptoAsh, another prominent crypto analyst, shared insights via the social platform X, noting the absence of significant market-moving narratives that previously propelled massive rallies, such as ICOs in 2017, DeFi in 2020, and NFTs in 2023.
He stated, “Unless we see the ETH ETFs come into play, altcoins will likely continue declining against BTC. However, this period could represent an optimal time for strategic accumulation.”
Signs Of Recovery Amid Market Turbulence
Despite recent challenges, there are emerging signs of recovery within the crypto market. Following the US CPI’s latest report indicating slowed inflation, Bitcoin experienced a 4.7% increase over the past 24 hours, adjusting its price to $69,573.
Adding to the complexity of the market dynamics, a recent analysis by CryptoQuant analyst Abramchart revealed significant Bitcoin acquisitions by whales during recent price dips, suggesting that large investors are actively increasing their holdings.
Meanwhile, the broader altcoin market has shown resilience, with the total market capitalization climbing from $1.038 trillion to a 24-hour peak of $1.108 trillion. Leading altcoins like Ethereum, Solana, and XRP have posted gains of 5.2%, 8.7%, and 4.7%, respectively.
A report by analyst Burakkesmeci pointed to a substantial Ethereum outflow from Coinbase, marking the largest withdrawal this year and hinting at possible large-scale institutional activity.
These transactions, often involving sums between $400 million to $1.1 billion, underscore a potentially bullish outlook for Ethereum, especially in anticipation of new developments like the trading of spot ETFs.
The exact implications of these movements remain to be seen, but they are likely to significantly impact Ethereum’s price trajectory in the medium to long term.
