recently, "bitcoin broke through $8000" has been on the hot search. For a while, bitcoin rose, reborn rose sharply, and Ethereum led the rise... A week later, this big play dominated by bitcoin didn't seem to come to an end, and the trading volume was once pushed up to 100 billion US dollars

in the investment world, "madness" and "fear" coexist. Today's "madness" stems from last year's long-term "fear". However, this time, coincola Cola Research Institute tracks and analyzes the technical indicators behind the rising market, and deconstructs the "passion" of the market with the "rationality" of data< (1) mining and bitcoin price

start with the relationship between mining and bitcoin. The core technology of bitcoin is "blockchain", which is connected by blocks. Each block corresponds to a bill. All transaction information and transfer records of bitcoin are recorded on the blockchain. Every other point in time, the bitcoin system will generate a random code on the system node. Due to distributed accounting, all computers on the Internet can search for the code. Whoever finds the code will generate a block and then get bitcoin. This process is mining. Calculating this random code requires a lot of GPU operations, so miners need to use mining machines with massive graphics cards to make profits

1. Bitcoin computing power: starting to pick up

remarks: June 2018-may 2019 bitcoin hash value

data source: bitcoin visual, coincola Research Institute

the above figure shows the bitcoin hash value. The hash value of the bitcoin network represents the computing power of the blockchain. The growth of computing power means that miners increase mining investment or increase the number of miners. Since the second half of 2018, the hash value has recovered from falling back to picking up, from 32eh / s at the end of the year to 50eh / s now, and the recent growth trend is remarkable. The continuous growth of bitcoin hash value (representing computing power) indicates that the market is optimistic about the future of bitcoin

2. Mining difficulty: stepped up

remarks: bitcoin difficulty from June 2018 to may 2019

data source: bitcoin visual, coincola Research Institute

the figure above shows bitcoin difficulty. Since 2019, the difficulty of bitcoin mining has increased in a step-by-step manner, from the low 5T to the current 7T. It can be seen that the rapid rise of bitcoin in this round has reced mining costs and increased market entry personnel. The increasing difficulty of mining means that there are profit opportunities in cryptocurrency market, and the market is generally optimistic< (2) the number of active addresses and transactions on the chain are important indicators reflecting the activity of cryptocurrency, which are highly correlated with the price of cryptocurrency

1. The number of active addresses on the bitcoin chain: a straight line rise

remarks: the number of active addresses on the bitcoin chain from June 2018 to may 2019

data source: coinmetrics, coincola Research Institute

active addresses refer to the addresses where transactions have taken place every day, that is, how many independent addresses conct transfer transactions on the chain every day. Since 2019, the number of active addresses on the bitcoin chain has been rising, especially in recent years. From 540.60143k in January to 832.592k now. It shows that the rapid growth of active users of cryptocurrency is a very positive signal for the market

2. The number of transactions on the bitcoin chain: continued to rise

remarks: the number of transactions on the bitcoin chain from June 2018 to may 2019

data source: bitinfo charts, coincola Research Institute

since 2019, the number of transactions on the bitcoin chain has continued to rise, from 235k in early 2019 to 374k now. Moreover, since April and may, after two rounds of sharp rise in the price of bitcoin, the number of transactions on the chain has remained at a high level, even showing signs of a short-term surge< (3) lightning network and bitcoin price

in essence, lightning network adds a layer to the basic layer of bitcoin blockchain in order to make the transaction fast and cheap. With the existence of lightning network, users can remit money to each other at any time and pay very little. Lightning network represents not only the technical level of bitcoin, but also the important basis of bitcoin value

1. Lightning network nodes: rapid growth

remarks: bitcoin lightning network nodes from January 2018 to may 2019

data source: bitinfo charts, coincola Research Institute

the test version of lightning network started on the bitcoin main network on March 15, 2018. The number of lightning network nodes was only 64 at the beginning of 2018 and increased to 2329 at the end of 2018. Since 2019, the number of lightning network nodes has increased rapidly, and now it has reached 4289. In less than half a year, the number of nodes has doubled. The continuous expansion of nodes indicates the continuous upgrading and development of bitcoin lightning network technology, which is an important indicator of bitcoin price

2. Lightning network capacity: speed up

remarks: bitcoin lightning network capacity from January 2018 to may 2019

data source: bitcoin visual, coincola Research Institute

the data above shows that as of May 15, 2019, bitcoin lightning network capacity has increased to 1039 BTC, equivalent to 833usd, while at the beginning of 2019, it is only 504btc, Lightning network capacity doubled, and the growth rate accelerated. This means that the expansion of bitcoin has been well solved in lightning network technology, which will help keep the payment channel active and effectively support the functional application of bitcoin

the performance of mining, chain trading and lightning network is closely related to the price of bitcoin. On the one hand, the rise of bitcoin price acts as a catalyst to stimulate its performance in mining, chain and lightning network; On the other hand, mining, chain trading and lightning network are the important cornerstone of bitcoin price trend and the important basis of bitcoin price expectation<

3. In fact, the rise and fall of digital currency is a normal situation. The key is to see whether you are optimistic about its long-term value. Relatively speaking, if the long-term value is worth investing in, then the short-term decline can be ignored. At the same time, if you don't know much about digital currency users, it is recommended to choose a reliable and good platform for investment. The investment period needs more than six years, Word of mouth should always be good, you can take a look at AEX, fire coin these two, but also more reliable, you can also understand their own network first

4. First of all, understand what is an option

the so-called option is that investors trade a certain commodity, but they do not need to actually hold the commodity. They only need to pay a small transaction fee to the exchange to obtain the trading authority of the subject matter within a certain period of time, and they can trade in both directions
in terms of operation, if you are expected to be bullish, you will buy up and if you are expected to be bearish, you will buy down. The calculation of profit is the same as that of spot

to take a simple example, Xiaoming predicted that eth would rise sharply in the short term, so he spent 50usdt to buy 100 1-hour eth call options in the exchange, and one hour later eth rose 10usdt, then Xiaoming's profit was 100x10-50 = 950usdt
If Xiaoming bought the call options, and eth fell 10usdt in the reverse one hour later, Xiaoming's loss was only 50usdt of the call options, In addition, there is no need to bear the loss risk caused by the substantial fluctuation of spot and futures contracts

in short, the option is a kind of small and broad investment proct, only need to pay a little transaction fee, can obtain the right of proct return in a certain period, and the risk loss is only the transaction fee

at present, bitoffer adopts the American option trading method, which can grasp the market at any time without waiting for the closing time. It is easier to control the risk. If you have certain trading experience and market sensitivity, trading eth options is relatively simple.

5. A lot, but it will take a long time.

6. From bitcoin to Ethereum, it seems that more and more institutional traders are interested in accumulating Ethereum for long-term benefits, because Ethereum is also a store of value

1. Ethereum: a better value accumulation target

for many years, accumulating bitcoin has been the main way to store the value of cryptocurrency. Investors use bitcoin as a sharp weapon against the economic crisis. However, institutional traders are now also interested in Ethereum

in the 2020 annual review report of coinbase, it is noted that institutional customers are more and more interested in Ethereum. The reason is related to how investors evaluate Ethereum ecosystem

first of all, it is the original currency of the network. Because Ethereum is a platform for many valuable projects, Ethereum has become a powerful trading currency in Ethereum ecosystem

Why are more and more institutional traders hoarding Ethereum

the report points out that the driving force for Ethereum holders to invest comes from: first, Ethereum's potential as a value store is constantly developing; 2、 Ethereum's status as a digital currency provides the basis for its network transactions<

2. Investment institutions such as coinbase and Gemini are optimistic about Ethereum and defi

Arthur Cheong, founder of definance capital and portfolio manager focusing on defi encryption fund, pointed out in a statement in coindesk, "I think bold investors will explore Ethereum and defi after studying bitcoin."

according to the data, some investment institutions such as coinbase and Gemini are incredibly bullish on Ethereum. In addition, more and more large investors are looking for different decentralized financing space

Why are more and more institutional traders hoarding Ethereum< However, deniss vinokourou, a digital asset investment manager, believes that "not everyone is satisfied with the risks associated with defi that still exist, but the rapid growth of active projects in Ethereum supports capital appreciation."

unlike bitcoin, Ethereum has many ways to retain investors and lock them in for a long time. After the release of eth2.0, Ethereum owners have made a lot of profits in long Ethereum
