The surge in stablecoin activity on crypto exchanges is indicative of the return of investors looking to buy into the market. This could be a consequence of the return of confidence in the market. The Bitcoin fear and greed index reflects this as well. The fear and greed index has moved out the region of extreme fear which it was in for the greater part of January. It is currently at neutral at 50, the highest level it has been at since November.

Bitcoin and altcoins are primed to go higher.
Bitcoin, the number one cryptocurrency, has been on a rise with the return of bullish sentiments. Bitcoin is currently trading at around $44,785, up 22% in the last week. However, analysts believe that the price is undervalued. Bitcoin on-chain analyst, Willy Woo, argues that the fair price of Bitcoin should be at around $50,000 going by the Bitcoin supply shock valuation metric.
The market expectation is similar for altcoins as key metrics have indicated that several of them are poised to see upticks in price. Going by the MVRV 365D ratio of ADA from Santiment, it is also currently highly undervalued and is poised for a surge according to Ali Martinez, a crypto-market analyst.
