A leading analytics firm says Bitcoin (BTC) is on the verge of dropping a value that previously signaled the start of a major rally for the crypto king.
Santiment says on the social media platform
The MVRV is the ratio of the market capitalization of a crypto asset to the realized capitalization or the value of all coins at the price they were purchased at. When the MVRV value drops below zero, it indicates that the asset is oversold as traders who bought it on a certain time frame are witnessing losses.
According to Santiment, traders who accumulated BTC 30 days ago are in the red, while those who purchased BTC 365 days ago are approaching negative territory. The analytics firm notes that the last time Bitcoin’s 30-day and 365-day MVRV flashed red was in March 2023 – just before BTC unleashed a strong uptrend from $20,000 to $74,000.
“One of the most important signals for all cryptocurrencies that Santiment values is when both Bitcoin’s 30-day and 365-day MVRV are in negative territory. This is when there is mathematical validation that you are buying relative to the pain of other traders.
If you had bought the last time both lines were in negative territory, your return on BTC would be +132%.
The analytics firm adds that the number of non-empty Bitcoin wallets has fallen by 566,000 since June 15, indicating that hundreds of thousands of holders have emptied their BTC for fear of losses.
“Patient bulls should be happy about this, as the self-liquidating portfolios of impatient nonbelievers are a sign of FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) inducing bottoms, just like we saw in January [2024].”
Finally, the analytics firm highlights that public sentiment for BTC is at a one-year low, raising the likelihood of a rebound.
“Bitcoin sentiment among traders on When the crowd shows FUD at this level, the potential for a rebound that catches the majority off guard is at its peak.”
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is worth $57,881.
