Last week’s selloff sent Bitcoin’s price to within 6% of  “Realized Price”, as per analysis from Glassnode.

“The realized price represents the average cost basis of all BTC, and was last visited, only briefly, in March 2020. Historically it has been a strong support for Bitcoin,” Glassnode wrote on Twitter.

Further on-chain analysis showed that the Bitcoin Accumulation Trend Score hit “very high values” between 0.7 and 0.9 at lower prices.

“This indicates a large cross-section of the Bitcoin market added significantly to their BTC balance,” stated Glassnode. “Combined with the realized price, it suggests investors saw value.”
