Live updates: More bitcoin is now held at a loss than at a profit
Bitcoin market data indicates that more coins are currently held at a loss than at a profit, a historical signal often associated with market capitulation. While some analysts view this as a potential bottoming signal, sustained recovery depends on macroeconomic factors and ETF inflows.

Historically, these crossovers have landed near periods of peak financial stress and capitulation among newer buyers. They have also marked the point at which coins migrate from weaker hands to stronger ones, since only holders with high conviction tend to sit on losses rather than sell. Long-term holder accumulation and rising wallet-cohort balances across several size brackets have run alongside this latest deterioration in profitability.
