Original Article Title: "On-Chain Data School (Part 1): Do You Know What the Market-Wide BTC Average Cost Is?"

Original Article Author: Mr. Berg, On-Chain Data Analyst

TLDR  

· This article will introduce "one on-chain analysis concept" and "three on-chain data points"

· MVRV represents the market-wide profit state  

· Realized Price represents the average cost of holding BTC for the entire market  

· Realized Cap can be thought of as "how much money the market collectively spent to buy BTC"

What Is Realized Cap?

Realized Cap, also known as Realized Market Cap, refers to "multiplying each unit of BTC by the price at the last transfer, and then summing them up".

In simple terms: Each transfer can be seen as a "transaction", so multiplying the corresponding amount of BTC by the price at the last transfer is equivalent to the cost of that transaction. Adding up these costs gives you the Realized Cap.

What Is Realized Price?

Realized Price (RP), also known as Realized Price, is the number obtained by dividing "Realized Cap by the current BTC circulating supply".

We can interpret this as: "Total cost of BTC purchased by the whole market / How many BTC were purchased".

In other words, this is the "average cost of BTC for the entire market". By the way, it's always a good buying opportunity when the price is below RP!

What Is MVRV?

MVRV, short for MV divided by RV, represents the market's profitability status.

MV refers to the current BTC market value, i.e., "market price x circulating supply"; while RV is Realized Cap.

Moreover, if both the numerator and denominator of the formula are divided by the circulating supply, MVRV can also be expressed as "market price / RP." For example: if MVRV = 2, it represents an average market profitability of 100%.
