CryptoQuant analyst MAC_D in a new report, suggested that a sharp decline in <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/famed-venture-capitalist-arthur-cheong-forecasts-rising-crypto-sectors-amidst-market-lull/" data-wpel-link="internal">Bitcoin</a>‘s (BTC) price and funding rates could present a buying opportunity that might increase the cryptocurrency’s value.

The senior analyst argued that following investors piling into leveraged long positions, the token’s funding rates soared to a high level of 0.049% on January 2nd. This occurred while the market was anticipating the decision of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on the BTC Spot ETF. 
According to data from 21milyon.com, when the article was written, BTC’s funding rate was 0.001%. Therefore, despite the token’s recent price movement, the market continued to show a bullish trend. According to MAC_D, for the current downtrend to end, a capitulation event that results in the mass liquidation of these long positions needs to occur. The analyst stated the following in his remarks: 
<blockquote> 
 If there are sharp price drops and the funding rate turns negative on the 1-hour chart, it could mean that leveraged investors are overly pessimistic about the market, which could be a good opportunity to buy back BTC.

This could mean that two things need to happen for BTC to witness an upward price correction. A sharp decline in the value of the cryptocurrency and a negative funding rate on the 1-hour chart could lead to significant pessimism among leveraged investors, yet offer a potential buying opportunity for those with a longer-term investment horizon. At the time of writing, BTC was trading at $39,956. According to data from CoinMarketCap, since the BTC ETFs started trading on January 10th, the token’s value has dropped by 13%. 
The mentioned price drop could be due to an increase in profit-taking activity, which led to an increase in the token’s exchange reserves. Since January 10th, the total number of BTC held on exchanges increased by 0.47%. According to CryptoQuant, at the time of writing, there were 2.1 million BTC on exchanges. As token sales increased, the profitability of daily BTC transactions also decreased. According to Santiment data, since January 10th, the daily profit/loss ratio of BTC transaction volume has dropped by 10%.
