Quant Suggests Bitcoin Will Be Back In The Driver Seat After Ethereum Merge

A quant has suggested that Bitcoin will again become the driving force in the crypto market once the Ethereum merge hype dies down.

The “trading volume” is a metric that measures the total amount of crypto being involved in transactions in spot markets.
