Realized Cap by Holding Period

Hvad den måler

Realized Cap by Holding Period groups unspent outputs by the time since they last moved and sums each group's BTC amounts multiplied by their prices at creation. The 12 age bands, from <24h to >10y, are shown in USD, with Total representing their combined cost basis.

Sådan læses den

Growth in <24h or 1d–1w shows more cost basis assigned to recently moved coins; growth in 1y–2y can reflect coins aging into that band without moving. In this history, 1m–3m reached $254.51 billion on December 23, 2025, then stood at $84.81 billion on October 17, 2026. Follow adjacent bands and Total to distinguish redistribution across ages from changes in aggregate cost basis.

These are dollar amounts, not supply percentages or the average cost per coin. A band can shrink because coins mature into the next band or are spent, and wallet reshuffles can reset age and cost without a sale. Old coins with very low recorded costs contribute little even when their BTC quantity is large; band growth alone does not establish fresh capital inflow.
