 As Bitcoin's price fell to $50k, the percentage of holders in profit dropped to 75%.

The platform reportedly used the “Historical In/Out of the Money” interest indicator to evaluate on-chain data. The indicator revealed addresses carrying profit and losses by examining transactional history.
The metric compared the addresses’ current spot value with the cost basis. Addresses with higher asset current spot value were said to hold net unrealized profit(in the money). Addresses with a higher cost basis, on the other hand, were assumed to be ‘out of the money.’
IntoTheBlock highlighted that the number of BTC holder addresses in the green remained above 90% a week before the crash. The analytics firm added that addresses in the money have repeatedly remained at the 90% level in the past few months.

IntoTheBlock highlighted that BTC addresses have been in the money for the larger part of 2024. However, the recent crash to the $50k level reportedly shook the market, as a significant number of Bitcoin holders made losses.
<blockquote>
 “BTC went from $70k to $52k in a week (-26%). ETH went from $3400 to $2100 (-39%). This has been one of the most brutal performances in a long time.”

CryptoQuant analysts warned that Bitcoin may further plummet to $40,000 in the next few weeks, which could lead to more losses. They added the number of addresses in the money could decrease once Bitcoin takes another hit.
IntoTheBlock added that&nbsp; BTC holders who are in profit are likely to trade their coins. The firm stated the high number of wallets in the green could trigger a mass sell-off, further dropping the currency’s value. IntoTheBlock added that, on the contrary, when profits go down, the risk of selling off goes down, as the motive is to take profits.&nbsp;
