Supply in profit (%)

Percentage of circulating supply whose average acquisition cost (by the month it last moved) sits below today's price.

Why it matters

Near 100% during euphoric rallies, falls sharply during steep drops — a rough measure of how much of the market would realize a loss if it sold today.

Build it yourself

Count how much BTC cost less than it's worth today — and what fraction of supply that is.

% in profit = BTC in profit ÷ total supply × 100

How it's calculated, step by step

  1. For every age bucket (same snapshot as the previous indicator), that bucket's average cost is computed = accumulated USD value ÷ that bucket's BTC.
  2. If that average cost is below today's price, all of that bucket's BTC counts as "in profit".
  3. The in-profit BTC across all buckets is summed and divided by the day's total BTC.
Descriptive. It's a snapshot of market state, not a trigger — useful as context for reading other signals.
