On-Chain Buying Power

Definition

On-chain buying power quantifies the total amount of stablecoins or other liquid digital assets held by market participants directly on a blockchain, indicating their immediate capacity to purchase other cryptocurrencies. This metric serves as an indicator of potential demand, as these assets are readily available for deployment into riskier assets. A rise in on-chain buying power suggests an accumulation of capital positioned for market entry. It reflects a readiness to acquire assets.
