Formula

Adjusted MVRV = STH-MVRV / SMA90(STH-MVRV) − 1. Thresholds = rolling 365-day mean of adjusted MVRV ± its population standard deviation.

How to read it

A zero adjusted value means MVRV equals its 90-day average. The upper and lower lines describe departures from the recent historical distribution; crossing them does not prove selling or capitulation.

Limitations

  • Statistics use daily observations, with at least 30 adjusted observations for the threshold window. Hourly points use daily baselines, including that day's close, so historical intraday views are not point-in-time backtests.
  • On-chain movements include transfers between an owner's own wallets. They do not establish actual purchases, sales or investor identity.
  • The latest day is provisional. Data is updated daily; hourly resolution does not mean hourly publication.
