On Dec. 3, CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju made the feared call that “most Bitcoin on-chain indicators are bearish.”
He added, “Without macro liquidity, we enter a bear cycle.”
The CEO was explicit. He tied his argument to his firm’s composite on-chain dashboards and a global-liquidity framework, framing the November drawdown not as a healthy correction but as the opening act of a new secular...

Ethereum completed its Fusaka upgrade on Dec. 3, marking one of the network’s most essential steps toward long-term scalability.
