On-chain data shows the Bitcoin Puell Multiple is currently forming a pattern that has previously signaled a bullish opportunity for the asset.

A key feature of the Bitcoin blockchain is that these rewards are given out at more or less a fixed rate. Also, the scale of them remains constant, bar one exception, which will be mentioned shortly. When the value of the Puell Multiple is greater than 1, it means the miners are earning more than the average for the past year right now. The higher the metric gets above this mark, the more motivation these chain validators have for selling, and thus, the more the coin could be considered overvalued. On the other hand, the indicator being below this mark implies the miners are currently making less than usual, which could be a potential sign that mining is becoming unprofitable. Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin Puell Multiple over the past decade: The value of the metric appears to have been plunging in recent weeks | Source: CryptoQuant As displayed in…
