What’s new? According to analytics firm Santiment, BTC’s address activity reached its six-month high. On November 20, for example, 1,1 million unique addresses joined the network, the highest since May 5. “Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt” (FUD) due to the lack of trust in exchanges historically benefits bitcoin, and users are moving into self custody of the asset, experts noted. As of 11:00 UTC, BTC is trading at $16 147, down by 2,28% in 24 hours, according to Binance.

On November 20, the correlation between bitcoin and the S&P 500 Index turned negative at -0,74. The market of digital assets stopped reacting to the dynamics of the dollar and stock indices. Previously, a similar situation was observed in December 2021.
