Too Long; Didn't Read
The most effective metrics to evaluate the behavior of crypto-assets are, surprise-surprise, those that factor in elements that are specific to crypto and that have no equivalent in other asset classes. Analytics and market metrics should mimic the demographic of the investor population and, in crypto, that means to have simple signals that normal people can understand. Complicated patterns in a market that we don't quite understand yet is a recipe for disaster. Simple doesn’t only mean easy to understand but flexible to change and adapt to market changes.
