 Bitcoin could be entering an attractive buy zone, according to two popular metrics used by cryptocurrency analysts to track on-chain trading activity.
</div>
The Market Value to Realised Value (MVRV) and Open Interest (OI) weighted funding rate metrics suggest that Bitcoin, <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">currently priced at $63,968,</a> could be at an enticing entry point for traders.
The <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://www.lookintobitcoin.com/charts/mvrv-zscore/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MVRV indicator</a>, used to gauge whether Bitcoin is over or undervalued compared to its fair value. A score above 3.5 on the MVRV indicates that the market is nearing its peak, while a score below one suggests it has reached its lowest point.&nbsp;
Bitcoin’s current MVRV score stands at 2.32, reflecting a 6.45% decrease since the beginning of April, as per data from <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://www.lookintobitcoin.com/charts/mvrv-zscore/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">LookIntoBitcoin</a>. This indicates that Bitcoin has moved further into favourable buying conditions.&nbsp;
On the other hand, Bitcoin’s OI-weighted funding rate, which represents the cost of holding Bitcoin futures positions, recently breached positive territory after spending 24 hours in the negative zone, posting 0.0093%, according to <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/currencies/BTC" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinGlass data</a>. This rate is significantly lower than the 0.0714% recorded at the beginning of April, which analysts view as favourable for the market.
In early March, the last time Bitcoin’s OI-weighted funding rate surged, Bitcoin hit an all-time high of $69,200 on the same day. Just a week later, on March 14, it surpassed that record, reaching $73,835, based on <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinMarketCap data</a>.

&nbsp;
The rise in funding rates indicates growing interest in long trades, and it appears that traders and market watchers believe in this optimistic outlook of the market.&nbsp;
“One of the healthiest market resets I have seen in a long time,” declared on-chain analyst Checkmate in an <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://twitter.com/_Checkmatey_/status/1783034015982956875?t=NKI1lkWrZtj7afdgKg4SJg&amp;s=19" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">April 24 post</a>.

Bitcoin ready for liftoff.”&nbsp;
