MVRV Z-Score

Definition

The MVRV Z-Score is a blockchain metric used to assess the market valuation of a cryptocurrency relative to its realized value. It is calculated by dividing the market capitalization by the realized capitalization and then subtracting 1, with the result standardized by dividing by the standard deviation of the market cap over time. This metric helps identify periods when an asset’s market price is significantly overvalued or undervalued compared to its historical cost basis.
