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 current index in the chart has dropped to 1.45

In 2014, this index dropped from 1.45 to 1, taking 119 days
In 2018, this index dropped from 1.45 to 1, taking 147 days
In 2022, this index dropped from 1.45 to 1, taking 123 days

Note: An index of 1 generally indicates a bear bottom

The gray line above in the chart represents the BTC price; the yellow line represents the average cost price of short-term BTC holders; the magenta line represents the average cost price of long-term BTC holders (excluding coins held for more than 10 years)

The indicator at the bottom of the chart is the ratio of “average cost price of short-term BTC holders” to “average cost price of long-term BTC holders” (yellow line / magenta line)

The average cost price of short-term BTC holders is defined as investors or entities holding Bitcoin for less than 155 days. This indicator reflects the cost basis of recent market entrants, who are often more sensitive to price fluctuations and more likely to sell positions during market volatility or downturns. It is often viewed as a barometer of short-term market sentiment and momentum: in a bull market, prices are usually above this average cost price; in a bear market, prices falling below this level may trigger additional selling pressure.

The average cost price of long-term BTC holders is defined as investors or entities holding Bitcoin for more than 155 days. This indicator excludes coins held for more than 10 years to focus on a more “active” group of long-term holders. The cost of these extremely long-held coins is very low and they rarely move, thus excluding them provides a more realistic LTH cost basis that reflects the average holding price of long-term investors who may actually participate in buying and selling during market cycles. This indicator is often regarded as a reference for market support levels: in a bear market, it may act as a potential price bottom.

The ratio of the two reflects the phases of the Bitcoin market cycle and the dynamics of participant behavior:
Ratio > 1: Indicates that the average cost of short-term holders is higher than that of adjusted long-term holders. This usually occurs in bull markets, where recent entrants buy at higher prices, while long-term holders have a lower cost basis. This suggests optimistic market sentiment and strong inflow of new funds, but may also indicate speculative overheating or potential pullbacks.
Ratio < 1: Indicates that the average cost of short-term holders is lower than that of adjusted long-term holders. This is common in bear markets or market bottoms, where recent entrants buy at lower prices, while long-term holders have a higher cost basis. This often signals capitulation, suggesting that weak hands have been cleared out, and the market may be turning towards recovery or the start of a bull market.

522 days after the 16-year BTC mining output was halved, the Bitcoin RHODL indicator reached the peak of the bull market (December 14, 2017, the coin price was $16.7k, non-K-line bull top);

533 days after the 20-year BTC mining output was halved, the Bitcoin RHODL indicator reached the peak of the bull market (October 26, 2021, the coin price was $62.7k, non-K-line bull top);

Currently, 114 days have passed since the 24-year BTC mining output was halved.

The indicator in the figure is Bitcoin RHODL (Realized HODL Ratio), which is the ratio of the number of BTC on the chain that has not moved for less than 1 week to the number of BTC that has not moved for 1-2 years (the number of BTC in different age groups needs to be weighted according to the total market value of the purchase cost of all BTC in their age groups).

The red line is the 13-17 years period of the indicator; the blue line is the 17-21 years period of the indicator; and the black line is the 21 years to date period of the indicator. The three lines align the halving days of BTC mining output in their respective cycles.

【Four-Year Cycle Total Engraving Series (18)】The current indicator in the chart has dropped to 1.42

In 2014, the indicator dropped to 1.42, and after 76 days, it reached the bear bottom ($0.15k)
In 2018, the indicator dropped to 1.42, and after 82 days, it reached the bear bottom ($3.1k)
In 2022, the indicator dropped to 1.42, and after 26 days, it reached the secondary bear bottom ($17.6k)

The gray line at the top of the chart represents the BTC price; the yellow line represents the average cost price of short-term BTC holders; the magenta line represents the average cost price of long-term BTC holders (excluding holdings for more than 10 years)
The indicator at the bottom of the chart is the ratio of "Average Cost Price of Short-Term BTC Holders" to "Average Cost Price of Long-Term BTC Holders (excluding >10y holdings)" (i.e., yellow line / magenta line)

The definition of the average cost price of short-term BTC holders: the average cost of investors holding Bitcoin for less than 155 days. Meaning: Reflects the cost basis of recent buyers, who are sensitive to price fluctuations and are likely to sell during downturns. It is often used as a short-term market sentiment indicator — prices above this average in a bull market, and falling below it in a bear market may exacerbate selling

The definition of the average cost price of long-term BTC holders: the average cost of investors holding Bitcoin for more than 155 days, but excluding holdings for more than 10 years (these may be lost or never moved, like Satoshi's coins). Meaning: Focuses on "active" long-term holders, providing a more realistic cost basis. It is often used as a reference for market support levels — it may become a price bottom in a bear market

The ratio of the two (short-term average / long-term average) means: Reflects the market cycle stage and participant behavior:
Ratio > 1: Short-term buyer cost is high (new funds entering at high prices), sentiment is optimistic but may be overheated
Ratio < 1: Bear market or bottom signal, short-term buyer cost is low (entering at low prices), weak hands are cleared out, and the market may recover
Overall trend: Ratio rising = bull market continuation; falling = bear market or distribution phase. Excluding holdings for more than 10 years makes the ratio more accurately capture cycle turns; historically, < 1 has often been a long-term buying opportunity.

The current index in the chart has dropped to 1.45

In 2014, this index dropped from 1.45 to 1, taking 119 days
In 2018, this index dropped from 1.45 to 1, taking 147 days
In 2022, this index dropped from 1.45 to 1, taking 123 days

Note: An index of 1 generally indicates a bear bottom

The gray line above in the chart represents the BTC price; the yellow line represents the average cost price of short-term BTC holders; the magenta line represents the average cost price of long-term BTC holders (excluding coins held for more than 10 years)

The indicator at the bottom of the chart is the ratio of “average cost price of short-term BTC holders” to “average cost price of long-term BTC holders” (yellow line / magenta line)

The average cost price of short-term BTC holders is defined as investors or entities holding Bitcoin for less than 155 days. This indicator reflects the cost basis of recent market entrants, who are often more sensitive to price fluctuations and more likely to sell positions during market volatility or downturns. It is often viewed as a barometer of short-term market sentiment and momentum: in a bull market, prices are usually above this average cost price; in a bear market, prices falling below this level may trigger additional selling pressure.

The average cost price of long-term BTC holders is defined as investors or entities holding Bitcoin for more than 155 days. This indicator excludes coins held for more than 10 years to focus on a more “active” group of long-term holders. The cost of these extremely long-held coins is very low and they rarely move, thus excluding them provides a more realistic LTH cost basis that reflects the average holding price of long-term investors who may actually participate in buying and selling during market cycles. This indicator is often regarded as a reference for market support levels: in a bear market, it may act as a potential price bottom.

The ratio of the two reflects the phases of the Bitcoin market cycle and the dynamics of participant behavior:
Ratio > 1: Indicates that the average cost of short-term holders is higher than that of adjusted long-term holders. This usually occurs in bull markets, where recent entrants buy at higher prices, while long-term holders have a lower cost basis. This suggests optimistic market sentiment and strong inflow of new funds, but may also indicate speculative overheating or potential pullbacks.
Ratio < 1: Indicates that the average cost of short-term holders is lower than that of adjusted long-term holders. This is common in bear markets or market bottoms, where recent entrants buy at lower prices, while long-term holders have a higher cost basis. This often signals capitulation, suggesting that weak hands have been cleared out, and the market may be turning towards recovery or the start of a bull market.

┌── 📑 𝗗𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗗𝗶𝘃𝗲 | Indicator Details ──┐

The gray line in the chart represents BTC price; the red line represents the average purchase cost of Bitcoin for short-term holders (Short-Term Holder Realized Price); the blue line represents the true market average purchase cost of Bitcoin (True Market Mean Price)

The average purchase cost for short-term holders of Bitcoin is calculated based on short-term holders (usually defined as those holding Bitcoin for less than 155 days, with coins recently moved on-chain) and reflects the average purchase cost of chips held by recent market entrants (commonly referred to as "weak hands" or active traders)

The true market average purchase cost of Bitcoin, also known as the "active investor price," is not simply the average realized price of all coins, but specifically targets coins that are actively traded in the secondary market: the calculation formula is Investor Cap (the market value of investors, excluding Bitcoin mined but not traded in the secondary market) divided by Active Supply (time-weighted active supply, excluding long-term dormant and lost coins). It reflects the true average purchase cost of truly active investors in the market (excluding newly minted coins by miners, lost coins, and long-term inactive holdings), and is considered the model closest to the "true market mean" of aggregated purchase costs

The average purchase cost for short-term holders focuses on the costs of the "short-term, sensitive group," suitable for short-term sentiment and support/resistance judgments; the true market average purchase cost focuses on the true mean of "all market active investors," suitable for medium to long-term trends and bull-bear boundary judgments

Using both in combination allows for a more comprehensive understanding of the cost structure of different Bitcoin holder groups and the short and long-term trends in the market
