Data Revealed: Whales Are Selling This Altcoin, But Short-Term Investors Are Accumulating

Cryptocurrency analyst Joao Wedson made remarkable statements about Uniswap (UNI) and the Bitcoin (BTC) market in his latest assessment.

As short-term investors accumulate Uniswap, the share of the top 100 UNI addresses is declining, according to Wedson. This suggests that Uniswap is moving towards a more decentralized structure by 2025.

Wedson also highlighted an important point for data enthusiasts: UNI’s Metcalfe Ratio is on the rise again. This ratio measures the value of a network by comparing its market capitalization to the square of its active addresses. According to Metcalfe’s Law, a network’s value grows proportionally to the square of its user base.

• A low Metcalfe Ratio may indicate that the price is lagging behind as the network grows, potentially indicating a potential appreciation.
• High Metcalfe Ratio: May indicate that the price has exceeded user growth, meaning there is a risk of overvaluation.

Wedson pointed out some negative indicators on the Bitcoin side:

• BTC has lost its trendline in the Russell 2000 index. Given the historically strong correlation, this could be interpreted as a potential bearish signal in the market.
• The Sharpe Ratio is below 2024 levels, indicating a weakening risk-return ratio and smaller price fluctuations.
• BTC has yet to break through historic highs in some fiat pairs such as BTC/EUR and BTC/RUB.
