Realized cap could be the new benchmark for measuring Bitcoin’s value

Quick Take

  • Bitcoin realized cap is currently sitting around 60% from roughly 50% last year, and it’s 20% higher than in 2018.
  • Realized cap gives a much more accurate version of events as it substituted the current token price with the price when the token last moved.
  • In addition, it filters out founder coins, and if a token has never moved, its realized price is zero.
  • While Bitcoin market cap dominance currently sits below 48%, a vast difference from the realized cap dominance.
  • CryptoSlate did a thorough analysis of realized cap vs. market cap both from an all-time high drawdown and report.
