Bitcoin Stress Rate Reaches Alarming Level

In a scenario that has been worrying investors and cryptocurrency enthusiasts, a new indicator is raising alarm bells for Bitcoin investors. The cryptocurrency’s “profitability stress ratio,” which measures the ratio of supply to loss in the market, reached 0,23, the highest value since last September, according to data shared by the Glassnode analysis platform. This level historically precedes periods of market turbulence, generating concerns about the near future of Bitcoin.

Glassnode’s analysis highlights that the rising stress ratio indicates increasing pressure in the market. In simple terms, more investors are selling their Bitcoins at a loss, which could trigger a spiral of selling and price decline.

“Historically, values ​​above 0,2 have marked periods of heightened market stress. If the value continues to rise, it could signal increasing market pressure, potentially reinforcing a broader shift in sentiment,” he said.

Bitcoin has seen significant corrections in recent months, with its price seeing a 14.6% drop in the last 30 days alone.
