Spent Output Ratio

Definition

The Spent Output Ratio (SOPR) is an on-chain metric used in cryptocurrency analysis that indicates whether Bitcoin or other digital assets are being spent at a profit or loss. It is calculated by dividing the realized value of a spent transaction output by its value at creation. A SOPR value greater than one suggests coins are being sold at a profit, while a value less than one indicates losses. This metric provides insight into the aggregate market sentiment of coin holders.
