The CDD spike a few days ago coincided with a price recovery, followed by a decline, indicating potential selling by long-term holders. Similar spikes in the past have also preceded market tops and subsequent drawdowns. The CDD's relationship with Bitcoin's price suggests it may continue to indicate selling pressure in the future. Bitcoin's price has recently fallen to around $62,300.
