Assets covered: Maker (MKR)

Metrics used: Active Addresses, Exchange Inflow, Network Profit Loss, Age Consumed, Spent Coin Cost, Whale Transactions Count, Transactions Volume, Trading Volume

One day ago @ibis has posted a short insight pointing to an increased onchain activity of Maker. The next day MKR ended up in a list of most performing coins last 24 hours. So here comes bigger overview of what's happening with MKR tokens. And where could we go from here.

Active Addresses

First of all we've got a steady rise on onchain activity going along with the rally. Even at the recent bottom:

Exchange Inflow

@ibis wrote about Maker yesterday and then MKR pumps additionally. As soon as it breaks 2.5K level we see a spike in exchange inflow number one and then number two. This looks like a profit taking that we expect around the local top:

Network Profit Loss

It's a little bit late, but we're also seeing a spike in Network Profit Loss. Perhaps we might expect a further pullback.

Age Consumed

We're having a notable spike here. Actually a cluster of spikes, three ones are marked with red dots, meaning there's an anomaly detected in this metric data.

This might suggest that at 2.6K level there are some long term coins that are being moved. This doesn't seem like a very positive sign. We might see a slightly further correction in the short term.

Spent Coin Cost

This metric reveals that one of two biggest clusters of MKR tokens moved today were last transacted between 300 and 800 USD price levels:

That's quite a long ago! Mature tokens moving. Long term holders have no more confidence in future profits. We might suggest that despite a possible short term correction, MKR has a room to grow midterm.

Whale Transactions Count

It's starting to rise. And if we look at previous times that it rose, we could notice that most are nicely aligned with tops. Perhaps the last one may be a top too. Not as strong as what we've seen previously but still.

Transaction Volume

This volume is picking up. Previous times that it has been picking up is also not necessarily the greatest time for MKR. Either tops or bottoms.

Trading volume

Classic trading volume is picking up too. It seems to indicate a rising interest for MKR, but previous spikes in volumes marked several price tops. This is not necessarily a great sign.

Summing up

A few worrying signs might suggest a possible short term correction for Maker.

Metrics to keep an eye on:
