#Bitcoin investors have locked in the largest USD denominated Realized Loss in history last week.

The $BTC spent on-chain this week realized net losses of over $4.23B.

This eclipses all major sell-offs in 2021, and is 3x larger than March 2020.

We can inspect the coins sent by #Bitcoin Short-Term Holders directly to exchanges.

Here we can see that this cohort locked in realized losses of 0.01% of the Market Cap per day.

Whilst significant, these STH losses are not as large as major sell-offs in the last 5yrs.

#Bitcoin Long-Term Holders however realized major losses, equal to 0.007% of the Market Cap per day.

This is almost as large as March 2020, and is the first major LTH capitulation event in the 2021-22 cycle.
