Source: CryptoNewsNet Original Title: Bitcoin’s ‘realized cap’ holds at record high over $1 trillion, casting doubt on four-year cycle Original Link: Bitcoin’s “realized capitalization” is at an all-time high of $1.125 trillion, suggesting that BTC remains in a bull market despite the near-40% plunge in prices over the past 10 weeks.

This on-chain metric, which values each bitcoin at the price it last moved, highlights actual capital inflows rather than speculative price action like total market capitalization.

Glassnode data shows realized cap continued to rise through the 36% correction from the October all-time price high, even as it’s stalled of late in the $1.125 trillion area. A similar pause was seen during the tariff tantrum in April 2025, when bitcoin bottomed near $76,000 before going on to make new highs.

During the 2022 bear market, realized cap fell from around $470 billion to $385 billion as investors capitulated and coins were sold at lower cost base — this sort of response is not being seen at the moment.
