Let’s take a look at two pieces of data from the Bitcoin market value to realized market value ratio indicator (#Bitcoin: Market Value to Realized Value Ratio) in different periods (the two pieces of data started from the day when Bitcoin production was halved in 2016/20 respectively).
At this moment, #BTC will explode in the next 1-4 months.
The orange line indicator at the bottom of the chart is the 365-day moving average of Bitcoin realized profits; the blue line indicator is the 365-day moving average of Bitcoin realized losses.
Bitcoin realized profits: Among the Bitcoin spent (transferred) on-chain each day, the portion sold at a price higher than its previous moving (acquisition) price; the total accumulated profit amount (usually denominated in USD). Bitcoin realized losses: The portion sold at a price lower than its previous moving price; the total accumulated loss amount.
These two are classic on-chain indicators, reflecting the actual scale of locked-in gains and losses by investors and overall market sentiment.
A downward cross of the 365-day MA of realized profits below the 365-day MA of realized losses (a death cross) means that, over the past year, the average realized losses have exceeded profits, and the market has entered a phase of deep capitulation/selling in panic. Historically, this death cross has appeared without exception near the bottom of bear markets—an ultra-high-probability cyclical bottom signal.
📌 2014: After the coin price broke below the green line, it took 124 days to reach the bear-market bottom 📌 2018: After the coin price broke below the green line, it took 188 days to reach the bear-market bottom 📌 2022: After the coin price broke below the green line, it took 193 days to reach the bear-market bottom 📌 2026: After the coin price broke below the green line, it took 146 days to reach $57.8k
┌── 🐼 On-chain Data Details ──┐
The green line in the chart is the LTH Spent Price (Long-Term Holder Spent Price). It is the average purchase cost of $BTC sold by long-term holders (holding period ≥ 155 days) on that day. It reflects the weighted average buy cost of the batch of coins that were spent (sold).
When the coin price breaks below the LTH Spent Price and stays there for more than 100 days until the bear-market bottom, it indicates that long-term holders have entered a prolonged loss-cutting/forced selling phase. This suggests the market has entered a deep capitulation period, where even strong hands are being flushed out—historically, this is a typical signal seen near the end of bear markets and when a cycle bottom is approaching.

📊 Bitcoin STH-MVRV is perfectly replaying the bottoming fractal structure from 2021–2022
Observe the red line in the chart. After Bitcoin’s STH-MVRV breaks below 1.0 (the short-term investor breakeven line), it doesn’t immediately reverse; instead, it forms a classic “three-stage bottoming” structure:
1️⃣ First breakdown: A wave of panic selling emerges, dropping below 1.0 2️⃣ Deep washout: After a rebound to 1.0 meets resistance, the largest-magnitude second dip occurs (the deepest spike/bottom in the chart) 3️⃣ Convergence confirmation: We are currently in the late stage of the third bottom of this “round”—the lows begin to rise, forming a local-convergence W-bottom variant
History won’t repeat itself exactly, but it often follows similar rhythms. The previous two deep declines have already completed the cleansing of shaky holdings. Once the indicator turns bullish, breaks through, and holds above 1.0, it means short-term capital has fully shaken off losses—then the trend will enter a true right-side reversal.

The black line in the chart is the Bitcoin price; the orange line is the median cost of buying Bitcoin.
Median cost of buying Bitcoin: within the Bitcoin supply, it is the median price when all tokens were last moved on-chain (i.e., half of the Bitcoins were moved at prices higher than this; half were moved at prices lower than this). Unlike the average, it uses the middle value, which better represents the median buy cost of investors.
①② These two waves of pullbacks over nearly half a year filter out noise and short-term speculators. They indicate that the market, over roughly half a year, has reinforced the cost floor of the median investors across the entire network. Once the coin price confirms support from the second pullback and breaks upward, it usually signals the complete establishment of a bear-market bottom, followed by a long-cycle trend reversal (excluding black swan events 🌚)

In the chart, the orange line is the Balanced Price; the purple line is the LTH Realized Price
When the Balanced Price falls below the LTH Realized Price, it means:
● LTH Realized Price is the average buy cost of long-term holders (holding for over 155 days), and it is an important support level ● Balanced Price is an on-chain metric used specifically to predict the bottom of a bear market (derived by subtracting the transfer price from the network realized price) ● Their crossover (Balanced falling below LTH) indicates: the model-calculated potential bear-market low has dropped below the cost line of long-term holders
Implication: The market may face a more thorough clearing, but at the same time it has entered the historical bear-market bottom area—often a window for value accumulation

【🚨 BTC Bear Bottom Cup! 2026 Bottom Fishing Plan Launched】
Thanks for sticking around for another 4 years! With the cycle rotation, it’s time to build our positions! Starting today, I'm officially launching a dollar-cost averaging strategy to pick the bottom, continuing the steady approach of buying in phases at the bear bottom we saw in 2022👇
📊 Quick Overview of the Bottom Fishing Strategy (Executed in Two Phases):
○ Phase One: Dollar-Cost Averaging in the Bottom Formation Zone (Building 50% Position) In the current bear bottom, where we’re seeing a secondary bottom formation, I expect to spend 99 days (let’s emphasize this time frame! Don’t rush in and go all-in), systematically completing half of my position. Both spot trading and low-leverage setups can be flexibly utilized.
○ Phase Two: Confirmation of the Right Side Turning Point (Building Remaining 50%) Keep half your bullets ready and patiently wait for the right side turning point in the bear bottom zone to appear. Strike with the trend to complete the deployment of the remaining half of the position.
Want to dive deeper into the macro analysis and price logic behind this plan? 🔗 I’ll be posting a detailed analysis of the Bottom Fishing Plan on X (subscription exclusive, stay tuned, follow me on X: 0xCryptoChan)

The metric shown measures the ratio of “new funds/speculative hot money” held for less than 3 months to Bitcoin’s total realized market cap across the entire network. It is used to reflect the market’s level of speculative frenzy and the top/bottom positioning over larger market cycles.
When this indicator is at the bear-bottom V, it suggests that short-term players have shifted from net exiting to net entering, or that the bear market is ending and a bull market is beginning.
