U.Today - Bitcoin, the first and largest cryptocurrency, may be gearing up for its next major move as a key Bitcoin indicator has hit a key reset level.
According to Glassnode, Bitcoin’s MVRV Ratio has pulled back to its long-term mean of 1.74, a key reset level historically associated with consolidation phases. This marks a cooling of unrealized gains, similar to the August 2024 unwind, and could serve as support if held.
Other indicators suggest that Bitcoin may be on the verge of a significant move. The Bitcoin percentage supply in profit metric has also rebounded from its long-term mean, indicating a broad reset of investor expectations without widespread capitulation. Currently, 88% of the Bitcoin supply remains in profit, with losses concentrated among buyers in the $95,000–$100,000 range.
Likewise, the BTC Realized Profit/Loss Ratio has moved back above 1.0, signaling a shift toward profit-taking. This rebound, Glassnode stated, reflects improving market sentiment and suggests demand is strong enough to absorb profit realization, supporting the case for recovery.
