On-Chain Analyst Willy Woo Reveals Bitcoin Exit Strategy – Here’s His Timeline and Price Target

img-ads

Bitcoin on-chain analyst Willy Woo is revealing the window of time during which he believes Bitcoin will hit its bull market peak.

In an interview on the What Bitcoin Did Podcast, Woo predicts that Bitcoin’s current bull cycle will likely end in December of this year.

Working under this assumption, Woo believes that Bitcoin will hit a high of $300,000 during this bull market.

“[Bitcoin] is sort of ball-parking $200,000-$300,000 if you assume the end is in December. And now it looks like $300,000 minimum is the trajectory. So you know it can go further up or it can go down a bit if we have… it depends on how the price action swings over the rest of this year.”

The on-chain analyst discusses his strategy for avoiding massive losses once Bitcoin finally loses steam and reaches its peak.

Woo explains that, in an ideal world, one would not sell their BTC positions on the way up to the top, but receive confirmation that the king coin has in fact topped out using various metrics, and then sell on the way down.

“I was not in it to sell leading up to the top. It was more that I would wait for the top to start to signal and then I would sell on the downward run.”

Woo warns that his preferred exit strategy may succeed for the average Bitcoin investor, but will likely cause issues for BTC mega-whales.

“If you’re a whale and maybe a Michael Saylor-size whale, maybe you’ve got… maybe not even a 100,000 Bitcoin but maybe you’ve got just a paltry 10,000 Bitcoin, you might have trouble selling in the downside of the market because the liquidity starts to dry out on the way down…

But for ordinary people that have got under, say a 1,000 Bitcoin, I think it’s perfectly fine. There’s sufficient liquidity in Bitcoin to exit the market on the way down.”

Bitcoin surge could be driving digital yuan interest, says People’s Bank of China

The cryptocurrency space may be helping to spawn its own competitors after a representative of the People’s Bank of China said Bitcoin’s (BTC) recent surge had caused renewed interest in the nation’s digital yuan project.

The digital yuan is China’s central bank digital currency, and like all CBDCs its foundational principles are completely antithetical to those of the cryptocurrency space.

Core crypto concepts of decentralization and autonomy are dispensed with in favor of centralization and oversight, in an effort by government authorities to more easily control the flow of money. The digital yuan is also expected to be central to China’s smart city ambitions, which would see entire cities made cashless in the coming years.

But the PBoC believes the “very strong” interest that the digital yuan is receiving is a result of Bitcoin’s recent ascension to new all-time highs, despite cryptocurrency still being banned in China.

IRS authorized to access information on Circle’s crypto traders to nab tax cheats

A U.S. federal court has granted authorization to the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, to serve a John Doe summons to fintech firm Circle seeking all information on U.S. taxpayers who traded at least $20,000 worth of crypto assets on its platforms between 2016 and 2020.

The summons will apply to Circle Internet Financial Inc. including all “predecessors, subsidiaries, divisions, and affiliates, including Poloniex LLC.”

According to the Department of Justice’s announcement, Judge Richard Stearns concluded there is “reasonable basis for believing that cryptocurrency users may have failed to comply with federal tax laws.”

The document also notes the IRS “does not allege that Circle has engaged in any wrongdoing in connection with its digital currency exchange business,” adding:

“The summons seeks information related to the IRS’s ‘investigation of an ascertainable group or class of persons’ that the IRS has reasonable basis to believe ‘may have failed to comply…

Bitcoin Cash antitrust suit dismissed with prejudice

The founder of Bitcoin.com Roger Ver, and other high profile crypto figures including Kraken CEO Jesse Powell, have won a motion to dismiss an antitrust suit filed against them alleging market manipulation.

The amended complaint was filed by crypto company United American Corp in March 2020 against Ver, Powell, Bitmain Technologies and its CEO Jihan Wu, along with Bitcoin Cash developers Shammah Chancellor and Jason Cox.

The case has now been dismissed with prejudice due to a lack of evidence. The emphatic decision came after the district court threw out the initial complaint without prejudice in February 2020.

UAC’s initial complaint from December 2018 accused Ver, Wu, and Bitmain of colluding to manipulate the outcome of a Bitcoin Cash network upgrade scheduled for Nov. 15, 2018, when Bitcoin SV forked away from Bitcoin Cash.

The original complaint was thrown out due to a lack of personal…

Messari: New Coinbase listings really do outperform rival exchanges

Crypto analytics provider Messari has compiled a report concluding that the fabled “Coinbase effect” — the popular belief that new token listings on Coinbase tend to outperform launches on other exchanges — is true.

But the effect is far from consistent, and after controlling for outliers, it’s not as great as many assume.

Messari analyzed the performance of 28 new Coinbase listings over five days against 22 Binance listings, 19 FTX listings, 19 Gemini listings, 14 OKEx listings, and 11 Kraken listings over the same duration.

While the research found that listings on Coinbase had the highest average return at 91%, the effect was far from consistent. The 28 tokens performed anywhere from a 32% loss to a 645% gain after five days. By contrast, new tokens on other exchanges ranged from a roughly 25% loss to a 60% gain with the next best average gain overall…

Former SEC chair Jay Clayton tips new Bitcoin regulations are coming

Former US Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Jay Clayton has stated that Bitcoin has not been classified as a security for a long time.

But speaking on CNBC’s Squawk Box on March 31, Clayton warned that its status as a non-security still does not protect it from the imposition of new regulations which, he warned, could be coming soon.

Host Andrew Ross Sorkin pointed out that under Clayton’s watch the SEC did not take a position on Bitcoin regulation. Clayton responded that was because the asset was declared not to be a security before he even…

Canada’s Purpose Bitcoin ETF may be cutting into Grayscale’s market share

For the first time, shares in Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust traded at a discount compared to spot BTC for an entire month.

Rafael Schultze-Kraft, the CTO of on-chain analytics provider Glassnode, shared the observation to Twitter on April 1, noting shares in the institutional fund manager’s Bitcoin Trust had traded at a notional discount of -6% on average during March.

He noted the discount in Grayscale’s BTC shares has coincided with the launch of the Purpose Bitcoin ETF in Canada — which has accumulated 16,000 BTC worth roughly $940 million since launching in late February.
