Overview

Realized Price 10y+ is the average cost basis of coins that have not moved in over 10 years. This includes Satoshi-era coins and represents the lowest cost basis on the network.

Formula

Realized Price10y+=Realized Cap10y+Supply10y+\text{Realized Price}_{10y+} = \frac{\text{Realized Cap}_{10y+}}{\text{Supply}_{10y+}}

Interpretation

  • Typically near zero or very low, reflecting Bitcoin's earliest price history.
  • This cohort includes coins that may be permanently lost but still carry their original cost basis.

Use Cases

  • Track the average price during Bitcoin's earliest years
  • Estimate the cost basis of likely-lost supply
  • Provide the floor of the cost basis ladder
