Bitcoin (BTC) spot trading volume has fallen to its lowest level this year, showing a stagnant market like a ghost town. However, an analysis suggests that this could actually be a critical buying opportunity before an explosive surge.

According to crypto media outlet Finbold on August 6 (local time), Michaël van de Poppe, founder of MN Fund and a renowned crypto analyst, stated that there is no need to view the current trading cliff and "ghost town" phenomenon negatively. He emphasized that this current period of stagnation is forming a clear signal to accumulate cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin at low prices.

The analyst pointed out that in past cycles, a sharp rebound began immediately after the supply of Bitcoin in a state of loss reached its peak. According to Alpha Metrics data, when the BTC price bottomed out around $16,000 during the 2022 crypto bear market, the supply in a state of loss hit an all-time high, and subsequently, the price surged by over 600%.

Recently, as the BTC price formed around the $60,000 mark, the supply of Bitcoin in a state of loss once again broke an all-time high. Consequently, the analyst concluded that continuously accumulating and holding Bitcoin at its current valuation could lead to an enormous compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in the future.

The current Bitcoin price has fallen by over 26% this year, trading at $64,600 at the time of reporting. It has dropped approximately 0.2% in the last 24 hours, with a trading volume of about $20.22 billion. Despite Bitcoin being caught in a macroeconomic bear market, recent technical analysis suggests potential trend reversal patterns.

Furthermore, as the legal environment for cryptocurrencies improves in major regulatory jurisdictions, including Europe and Russia, the possibility of new capital inflows into Bitcoin is increasing. With the all-time high in the supply in a state of loss coinciding with a clearer regulatory environment, it is assessed that Bitcoin is on the cusp of entering a new bull market, as diagnosed by the analyst.
