MENGENAI EPISOD INI
Bitcoin is unique relative to traditional asset classes, meaning that it is unable to fit within the framework associated with them, and this has prevented investors from understanding it as well as adopting it. In an attempt to address this, ARK analyst Yassine Elmandjra recently co-authored a white paper with prominent crypto on-chain analyst, and ARK consultant David Puell that provides a simple approach on how to analyze public blockchains entitled ‘On-Chain Data: A Framework to Evaluate Bitcoin’. David and Yassine use the framework to discuss on-chain data, its importance, how we get to our metrics using it, and to give some context around the work we have done to develop it. We begin with a definition of on-chain data, then dive into the three-tiered framework, and along the way, point to some of the insights it is possible to gain from cryptographically verified access to such data on the blockchain. Tune in for all this and more, today!
“Your 200-day moving average has been an attempt from especially retail traders to get that holy grail cost basis of the market. But in Bitcoin, we have it in a cryptographically verified way.” – kenoshaking Key Points From This Episode:- What on-chain data is and how it analyzes the inner economics of Bitcoin.
- The nature of on-chain data and why it is easy to extract it from Bitcoin.
- How Bitcoin’s transparency is one of its value propositions as it pertains to the ability to analyze it.
