Moreover, the SOPR (Spent Output Profit Ratio) is currently, at a critical juncture around 1. The indicator was introduced by Renato Shirakashi who notes in the blog post,

First of all, SOPR appears to oscillate around the number 1. Secondly, during a bull market values of SOPR below 1 are rejected, while during a bear market values of SOPR above 1 are rejected.

The drop which began in March has seen rejection from the number 1, twice and is now trading around 1. Rejection from this level could will continue to keep the bearish sentiments alive.

The number of unique addresses is also rising linearly. However, the number of addresses with more than 1 ETH witnessed a huge drop at the beginning of this year.

Moreover, the current risk-off environment as the economy is heading into a recession builds a strong case of cryptocurrenices. However, the risk associated with the investment is equally high.
