Coins in Loss

Definition

Coins in loss refers to cryptocurrency units currently held at an acquisition price higher than their present market value. This metric, often derived from on-chain analytics, quantifies the proportion of a specific digital asset supply that would result in a financial deficit if sold at current market rates. It indicates periods where a significant number of holders are underwater on their investments, facing unrealized losses. High levels of coins in loss can signal potential selling pressure if prices recover to these acquisition levels.
