Bitcoin Realized Loss Suggests Early Signs Of Seller Exhaustion, Glassnode Says

The analytics firm Glassnode has revealed how the trend in the Bitcoin Realized Loss could imply sellers may be starting to reach exhaustion.

Bitcoin Realized Loss Is Showing Signs Of Saturation

In a new post on X, Glassnode has talked about how the Bitcoin capitulation has looked during the latest price drawdown. The on-chain indicator of relevance here is the “Realized Loss,” which measures, as its name suggests, the total amount of loss that the investors on the Bitcoin network as a whole are ‘realizing.’

The metric works by going through the transaction history of each coin being moved or sold on the blockchain to see what price it was transacted at prior to this. If the previous selling price is more than the current spot price for any coin, then its sale is said to be contributing to loss realization.

The amount of loss being realized in the sale is, of course, equal to the difference between the two prices. The Realized Loss calculates this value for all transactions occurring on the network and sums them up to find the total situation.

Like the Realized Loss, there is also an indicator known as the Realized Profit. This metric naturally keeps track of the sales of the opposite type (that is, where last transfer value is lower than the latest spot price).

Now, here is the chart for the Bitcoin Realized Loss shared by the analytics firm that shows the trend in its 6-hour rolling value over the past year:

As is visible in the above graph, the Bitcoin Realized Loss observed several large spikes during the bearish price action in February and March, suggesting the investors panic sold their underwater coins.

The recent FUD around tariffs has triggered a continuation of the drawdown for the asset and predictably, the holders have shown sizeable capitulation now as well.

But interestingly, the scale of the 6-hour Realized Loss has been notably lower than the spikes from before. This could imply capitulation is reaching a point of saturation, which, according to Glassnode, may be an early sign that the sellers are becoming exhausted. If so, then it’s possible that BTC may be close to some sort of bottom.

In the same thread, the on-chain analytics firm has also discussed about the recent trajectory in the market cap of the altcoins (that is, the cryptocurrencies excluding Bitcoin, Ethereum, and the stablecoins).

From the chart, it’s apparent that the altcoin market cap was sitting at an all-time high of $1 trillion in December 2024, but today the metric has shrunken to $583 billion. “Assets further out on the risk curve have shown heightened sensitivity to liquidity shocks, leading to severe sector-wide devaluation,” notes Glassnode.

BTC Price

Bitcoin has been making an attempt at recovery during the last couple of days as its price has returned to $81,900.
