Summary:

Now On Demand.

One common criticism of crypto is that it is difficult to evaluate using traditional, fundamental data. But thanks to the underlying blockchain, investors actually have access to an unprecedented trove of information (called “on-chain data”) providing insights into how investors are buying, selling, and storing crypto assets like bitcoin and ethereum. In this special webcast, Bitwise Asset Management will join forces with Chainalysis, a leading provider of blockchain analytics insights, to examine what the underlying data says about the outlook for crypto. You’ll learn how leading crypto investors use on-chain data to gain new insights on the outlook for crypto assets like bitcoin and others. Among the topics covered:

  • New insights on who is accumulating crypto assets
  • Key metrics to watch when evaluating crypto
  • How crypto-native investors consider questions around market timing, momentum and other factors
