A realized loss spike indicates a sudden and significant increase in the aggregate amount of financial losses incurred by market participants selling their digital assets. This metric, derived from on-chain data, signifies that a large volume of coins are being sold below their acquisition price. It represents a period of intense selling pressure and investor distress. Such spikes often accompany sharp market downturns.
