Bitcoin supply that was last active a year or more ago has reached an all-time high of 12.598mn BTC which represents almost 66% of the current circulating supply.
Last week, digital asset investment total flows saw $9.2mn worth of inflows. Bitcoin saw the majority of outflows at $11mn and Ethereum saw the next largest outflow of $2.1mn. Short Bitcoin saw record inflows of $17.9mn.
As BTC dominance drops, it seems we have moved into altcoin season where the index is indicating 96 above minimum altcoin season threshold of 75. This signals that over 75% of the top 50 coins had outperformed Bitcoin in the last 90 days.
The number of Ethereum options has spiked since the hype of the Merge. We observe that the put/call option ratio is at 0.25 where call options make up $6.13bn and put options make up $1.54bn.
The NFT hype seems to be showing signs of slowing as the average OpenSea transaction value has been exhibiting a downward trend since November of last year. The number of unique buyers has also been on a downward trend as August sees just under 250K unique wallets versus a January figure of almost 450K wallets.
