The Week On-Chain, Week 13, 2025

Bitcoin prices have continued to slide this week, with signs of seller exhaustion developing but no apparent trend reversal just yet. As a proxy for retail activity, we analyze XRP’s explosive rally as an initial burst of capital inflow stalls, momentum fades, and fragile sentiment raises caution.

Executive Summary
🔸The Bitcoin market continues to consolidate within the $76k to $87k range, with the Realized Profit/Loss Ratio starting to show signs of near-term seller exhaustion but not yet a renewal of sustained bullish momentum.
🔸A longer-term view reveals a deterioration of investor profitability, and an on-chain ‘Death-Cross’ has occurred, suggesting the market may remain weak.
🔹Ripple’s XRP network recently experienced a +490% spike in address activity and a near-doubling of Realized Cap, signalling aggressive retail interest. However, profitability has rapidly faded.
