On the 17th (local time), CryptoQuant contributor oinonen_t stated that "while Bitcoin still has potential for correction," he emphasized that "the halving cycle rally is not over yet."
He noted that "Bitcoin rose a total of 686% after the 2020 halving until November 8, 2021," while "since last year's halving, Bitcoin has only risen 63% compared to its peak." He added that "according to Bitcoin's power law model and diminishing returns principle, price increases gradually decrease with each halving," but maintained that "since Bitcoin has only risen 63%, there is still sufficient room for growth."
