Investor Loss occurs when the current market value of a digital asset falls below the price at which an investor acquired it. This represents an unrealized or realized reduction in capital for the holder. It can result from market downturns, poor investment timing, or a general decline in asset valuation. Periods of widespread investor loss often precede capitulation events and market bottoms.
