Asset Overvaluation

Definition

Asset overvaluation describes a situation where a digital asset’s market price exceeds its underlying fundamental worth. This often results from speculative fervor, market hype, or collective investor sentiment rather than intrinsic utility or verifiable economic value. Such a condition indicates that the asset is priced beyond what its inherent characteristics or usage patterns would justify. Persistent overvaluation can lead to substantial market corrections when investor perspectives shift.
