Bitcoin aSOPR Profit-Loss Junction Continues To Act As Resistance

On-chain data shows the Bitcoin aSOPR profit-loss junction has continued to act as resistance to the price of the crypto.

Bitcoin aSOPR Bounces Back Down From The Breakeven Line

As pointed out by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post, the aSOPR value equal to ‘1’ line has been acting as resistance for around 185 days now.

The “Spent Output Profit Ratio” (or SOPR in short) is an indicator that tells us whether the average Bitcoin investor is selling at a profit or at a loss right now.

When the value of this metric is greater than 1, it means the holders as a whole are moving their coins at some profit currently.

On the other hand, the indicator’s value being lesser than the mark implies the overall market is realizing loss at the moment.

Naturally, SOPR values exactly equal to 1 signify that the average holder is just breaking even on their investment.

A modified version of the metric is the “Adjusted SOPR” (aSOPR), which excludes from the data the transactions of all those coins that moved again within only an hour of their last transfer.

Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin aSOPR over the last couple of years:
