By the end of April, Glassnode analysts reported a rise in the number of active addresses on the Bitcoin network and highlighted it among the indicators of the end of the bear crypto market. And an anonymous Bitcoin analyst found that $60 million worth of bitcoins was withdrawn from exchanges in the last 24 hours. In his opinion, this could have a negative impact on the asset’s rate.
