Supply Shock Signal

Definition

A supply shock signal indicates an abrupt and significant reduction in the available circulating supply of a digital asset, often leading to upward price pressure. This reduction can result from events like halving cycles, large-scale token burns, or substantial accumulation by long-term holders moving assets off exchanges. When demand remains constant or increases amidst dwindling supply, the asset’s price typically experiences rapid appreciation. This signal suggests an impending period of scarcity.
