What supply shocks can say about Bitcoin (BTC) price

Top-tier Bitcoin (BTC) researcher and analyst Willy Woo has taken to Twitter to share bullish forecast on mid-term price dynamics for digital gold.

Such a statement was made based on the Highly Liquid Supply Shock indicator, which is a version of Mr. Woo’s Supply Shock metric. Supply shock is the ratio between unavailable supply and available supply of this or that asset.

Regarding Bitcoin (BTC), Mr. Woo describes the Highly Liquid Supply Shock indicator as the ratio between the number of coins held by long-term holders and short-term speculators.
