Bitcoin&#8217;s market price has experienced renewed downward pressure, falling to 
just under $106,000 in the last 24 hours. This marks a 1.8% dip over the past 
day and places the asset approximately 6% below its all-time high of over 
$111,000 reached last month. While the correction is not severe compared to 
historical volatility, it highlights ongoing uncertainty in the market as BTC 
consolidates near record highs without sustained upward momentum. One metric 
drawing attention amid this price movement is the Puell Multiple, a tool used 
to evaluate whether Bitcoin is overvalued or undervalued relative to miner 
income. Related Reading: Bitcoin’s Most Reliable Signal Just Flashed—Next 
Stop: $170,000 Bitcoin Puell Multiple Suggests Miner Revenues Have Yet to 
Catch Up CryptoQuant analyst Gaah highlighted that while prices recently 
surged above $108,000, the Puell Multiple remains below 1.40, a level 
typically associated with discounted or non-euphoric market phases. This 
decoupling between BTC price and miner revenue offers insight into how recent 
gains may be more demand-driven than organically supported by on-chain mining 
fundamentals. The Puell Multiple measures the daily issuance of BTC in USD 
terms relative to its 365-day moving average. Historically, readings below 1.0 
are seen during market bottoms or accumulation phases, indicating 
undervaluation. Gaah points out that current readings hovering around 1.40 
suggest miner profitability is still lagging, even as the asset trades near 
historic highs. This pattern contrasts with previous bull cycles where high 
prices were often accompanied by elevated miner earnings, driven by both 
network activity and block rewards. This disparity may be due in part to the 
April 2024 Bitcoin halving event, which reduced block rewards from 6.25 BTC to 
3.125 BTC per block. While halving events typically drive price appreciation 
through reduced supply, they simultaneously put downward pressure on miner 
revenue. In this case, despite a climb in market price, the halving’s impact 
continues to suppress income for miners, implying that the price increase has 
not yet been accompanied by the kind of broader economic expansion that would 
traditionally drive a full-fledged bull market. Potential for Continued Growth 
as Institutional Forces Drive Demand Gaah also points to the possibility that 
external factors may be playing a more dominant role in driving recent price 
action. These include increasing institutional inflows through spot Bitcoin 
ETFs, as well as a tighter circulating supply as long-term holders reduce 
active selling. These forces could be supporting price without necessarily 
boosting miner profitability in the short term, especially if the uptick is 
concentrated in secondary market demand rather than new BTC issuance. The 
current environment may signal a unique window for participants analyzing 
Bitcoin&#8217;s valuation. A high market price combined with conservative 
fundamentals suggests the market is not yet in a speculative excess phase.

driven by either increased transaction fees or broader network usage, it could 
support further upside. As such, both technical and fundamental indicators may 
continue to evolve in the coming months, offering a clearer view of whether 
the current cycle has more room to run. Featured image created with DALL-E,

Fidelity Files S-1 With SEC, Aiming to Launch Spot Solana ETF

A fresh XRP/BTC chart released on 12 June by the market technician known as 
Dr. Cat has injected new controversy into one of crypto’s most stubborn 
trading pairs. The analyst, posting to X, argues that despite a bruising six- 
week slide, conditions still favour an eventual breakout for XRP that would 
leave Bitcoin lagging. He assigns the scenario a formidable 70 percent 
probability. XRP Vs. Bitcoin: 70% Chance Of Breakout, But When? At the heart 
of Dr. Cat’s thesis is the 2,041-satoshi level, where three separate Ichimoku 
timeframes—monthly, bi-monthly and tri-monthly—intersect. “The price keeps 
eating support after support with no reaction from bulls at all as if supports 
don’t exist,” he concedes, but he stresses that this specific shelf is “the 
most important support.” Related Reading: XRP Could Crash To $1.55 Before 
Explosive Surge, Analyst Warns Candles on the attached one-month chart already 
hover fractionally below the line; a decisive monthly close beneath it, he 
warns, would flip the three-day structure fully bearish and scatter the pair 
into unpredictable, possibly chaotic ranges. Even so, the strategist insists 
history is on the side of XRP bulls. “Price has spent years performing very 
well and coiling up with higher lows for this attack now,” he writes, framing 
the past twelve quarters as a prolonged accumulation that has never 
surrendered its series of macro higher lows. That coiling, he believes, will 
allow XRP to mount at least a “minor … attack in August” toward the 
3,000-satoshi region—roughly a 45 percent appreciation from current levels—and 
perhaps fuel a &#8220;much bigger attack&#8221; once the broader market cycle matures.

Points To $5 Target The optimism is not unqualified. Dr. Cat calculates a 30 
percent chance of a complete flop if 2,041 sats fails on a monthly-close 
basis. Under that bearish branch, the cross could slice toward 1,800 – 1,900 
sats, attempt a feeble rebound, or continue a “slow bleed all the way down to 
the bottom of the range where it started the monster move.” In such a setback, 
he would not expect the long-anticipated “monster bullish move” until Q4 2025 
at the earliest. For the moment, therefore, the market hangs on a single 
number. Hold above 2,041 and Dr. Cat sees a clear shot at outperforming 
Bitcoin—first modestly, then dramatically. Slip beneath it, and the road map 
dissolves into what he bluntly calls an “unpredictable/choppy” expanse. Either 
way, XRP traders now know exactly where the cycle’s pivot resides and 
precisely how thin the margin for error has become. At press time, XRP traded 
at $2.1287. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
