According to CryptoQuant data, the discount is now at 27%, the lowest it has been since September last year. This is a significant improvement from late last year when the discount was around 60%, coinciding with a decline in the crypto markets.

Analyst Notes: Crypto Tony predicts that the market will remain range-bound once again."I do expect this range to continue until next week. Just no liquidity to shift us currently."

Pseudonymous analyst Crow, suggests that an ideal buying range for Bitcoin lies between $24,000 and $22,000. According to him, the lowest point observed, known as the pico bottom, was at $15,700. With the halving approaching, he anticipates a gradual rise starting from the $22,000 mark. 

"I believe we will go above $100K per Bitcoin in the next two years!", the analyst said.

Another pseudonymous analyst Credible Crypto says that  BTC appears to be stuck within a range-bound environment. "Still looking for a sweep of the lows under $25,200. I want to see $24,800 hold for a pushback into RED at $27,000."
