OTC Desk Insights
The momentum in the crypto markets remains strong this week, with BTC maintaining its position above the $37,000 USD level, trading within a range from $36,800 USD to $38,400 USD during the first part of the week. Reviewing the one-month chart, BTC shows a growth of roughly 9.2%, while ETH exhibits a 12.97% increase for the month. November has proven bullish for the crypto market, signalling a positive trend with one month remaining in 2023.
Recent on-chain data reveals that a significant majority of Bitcoin holders are small investors, with around 74% of BTC addresses holding less than 0.01 BTC. My take on this suggests an increasing trend of investors entering the market to buy and hold BTC.
In a recent report from Coindesk, Binance announced the discontinuation of BUSD support by December 15th. The move was previously anticipated, as they had indicated this plan earlier in the year. Paxos, the stablecoin issuer, was instructed to halt BUSD minting following regulatory scrutiny from the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS). There’s a noticeable trend of regulatory scrutiny on stablecoins; currently, no Canadian CEXs can trade Tether (USDT), making Circle (USDC) the dominant stablecoin in Canada. Expect further developments in stablecoin regulations in the upcoming months.
Happy Trading,
