  One of the main factors that can contribute to the increase or decrease in Bitcoin's active addresses is market sentiment. When the overall sentiment towards Bitcoin is positive, more people are likely to engage with the network, resulting in an increase in active addresses. Conversely, if the sentiment is negative, people may be less inclined to use Bitcoin actively, leading to a decrease in active addresses. Other factors that can influence active addresses include network congestion, transaction fees, regulatory changes, technological advancements, and the availability of user-friendly wallets and applications.

  The increase or decrease in Bitcoin's active addresses can also be influenced by market trends and price movements. When the price of Bitcoin is rising, more people may be attracted to the network, leading to an increase in active addresses. On the other hand, if the price is falling, some users may choose to sell or hold their Bitcoin rather than actively using it, resulting in a decrease in active addresses. Additionally, market trends such as bull or bear markets can also impact the number of active addresses.

  According to a study conducted by BYDFi, one of the factors that contribute to the increase or decrease in Bitcoin's active addresses is the availability of user-friendly wallets and applications. When users have easy access to secure and convenient wallets, they are more likely to actively use Bitcoin, leading to an increase in active addresses. Conversely, if the available wallets are difficult to use or lack necessary features, users may be less motivated to engage with the network, resulting in a decrease in active addresses.

  Factors such as media coverage and public perception can also play a role in the increase or decrease of Bitcoin's active addresses. Positive media coverage and widespread adoption can create a sense of trust and legitimacy, attracting more users to actively participate in the Bitcoin network. Conversely, negative media coverage or public skepticism can discourage users from actively using Bitcoin, leading to a decrease in active addresses.

  Another factor that can influence the number of active addresses in the Bitcoin network is the level of network congestion. When the network is congested and transaction fees are high, some users may choose to delay or avoid using Bitcoin, resulting in a decrease in active addresses. Conversely, when the network is less congested and transaction fees are low, more users may be incentivized to actively use Bitcoin, leading to an increase in active addresses.

  In addition to the factors mentioned above, external events such as regulatory changes, security breaches, or technological advancements can also impact the number of active addresses in the Bitcoin network. Regulatory changes that promote or hinder the use of Bitcoin can influence user behavior and consequently affect active addresses. Similarly, security breaches or technological advancements that enhance the security and usability of Bitcoin can attract or deter users, resulting in changes in active addresses.
