The volume of Bitcoin supply in profit has reached the levels last was seen 2 years ago as the market came off the Nov 2021 ATH. However, the magnitude of unrealized profit held within these coins remains modest, and thus far insufficient to motivate long-term holders to lock in profits.
Executive Summary
- As the market trades at yearly highs, over 83.6% of the Bitcoin coin supply is held in profit, being the highest level since November 2021 (near the ATH).
- However, the magnitude of unrealized profit held, being the delta between price and the coins cost basis, remains modest.
- The degree of unrealized profit held by investors is thus far an insufficient incentive to motivate long-term holder to spend, keeping the overall supply relatively tight.
