Bitcoin Primed for Another 460% Surge? Rare Fiat Signal Just Flashed Bullish

Bitcoin's gearing up for a potential moonshot—that elusive fiat signal just reappeared on traders' radars.

When this indicator last showed up, BTC ripped 460%. Now? The charts whisper 'history repeats.'

Fiat liquidity cycles have always been crypto's jet fuel. This time? Wall Street's algorithmic traders are already front-running the move—because nothing screams 'efficient markets' like herd mentality dressed as quant strategy.

Key levels to watch: If BTC holds above the 200-week MA, the next stop could rewrite ATHs. But remember: in crypto, 'rare signals' often arrive right before someone pulls the rug.

Global Money Supply Is Currently Sharply Going Up

In a new post on X, Capriole Investments founder Charles Edwards has talked about the latest trend in the Global Money Supply. The “Global Money Supply” refers to an indicator that measures the total amount of fiat supply (priced in US Dollars) issued by the top countries around the world.

Below is the chart shared by Edwards that shows the data for the year-on-year growth in the metric:

As displayed in the graph, the metric’s value has recently been witnessing an increase, indicating that fiat supply is going up. “Central banks are flooding the market with fiat money,” notes the analyst. Currently, the indicator stands at around 9%, which corresponds to the Global Money Supply undergoing a 9% jump over the last twelve months. “This is extreme and rare,” says Edwards.

In the same chart, the Capriole Investments founder has also attached the historical data of the daily Bitcoin price. Interestingly, past surges of the metric to this level all preceded significant bull rallies for the cryptocurrency over the next twelve months.

More specifically, the August 2017 signal led to a 663% surge, the November 2017 one to a 136% increase, and the June 2020 one to a 580% rally. This comes to an average gain of 460%.

Thus, it WOULD appear that money printers being busy around the world is something that tends to be bullish for Bitcoin. Considering that the Global Money Supply is once again rising at an appreciable rate, it only remains to be seen whether BTC will once again feel a positive effect over the coming year.

In some other news, the bitcoin network recently saw its largest ever movement of coins older than ten years, as CryptoQuant Head of Research Julio Moreno has pointed out in an X post.

In total, this latest spike of transactions involving ancient coins saw the movement of around 81,000 BTC, worth a whopping $8.8 billion. Generally, old coins MOVE when they are being sold, so these transfers could correspond to profit-taking.

Interestingly, the Apparent Demand indicator has remained positive for Bitcoin even after these transactions, as Edwards has explained in another X post.

This metric gauges the demand for Bitcoin by comparing its production (mining issuance) against its inventory (supply inactive over 1 year). “Despite 80,000 BTC moving, Bitcoin’s Apparent Demand is still bullish,” says the analyst.
