Notably, these models track the average acquisition costs of different cohorts, providing a framework for identifying support, resistance, and overall market health.<\/p>\n<p>As Bitcoin\u2019s spot price rose to $71,800, the Short-Term Holder (STH) Cost Basis was valued at $81,300, representing the average purchase price of recent market entrants over the last 155 days. Historically, this level has served as a key sentiment gauge, as short-term holders are the most reactive investor cohort.\u00a0 With prices below this level, short-term investors are largely underwater and are likely to increase sell pressure on potential rebounds, thus forming a key market resistance level.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f504.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udd04\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em;max-height: 1em\" \/> Update:  With the spot price trading at $71.8K, the key on-chain price models are as follows:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f7e1.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udfe1\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em;max-height: 1em\" \/> Active Investors Mean: $85k<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f534.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udd34\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em;max-height: 1em\" \/> STH Cost Basis: $81.3K<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f7e2.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udfe2\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em;max-height: 1em\" \/>True Market Mean: $78K&#8212;- Spot Price: $71.8K &#8212;-<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f535.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udd35\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em;max-height: 1em\" \/> Realized Price: $54.2K<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f4ca.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udcca\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em;max-height: 1em\" \/> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/mJ1JCnjTff\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/t.co\/mJ1JCnjTff<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/hn9QFtRVgJ\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/t.co\/hn9QFtRVgJ<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Jw5AK7vvb0\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/Jw5AK7vvb0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; glassnode (@glassnode) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/glassnode\/status\/2042602373504274578?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">April 10, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, the Active Investors Mean, positioned at $85,000, remains significantly above the current spot price. This metric reflects the average cost basis of economically active market participants and often serves as a proxy for broader market confidence. With Bitcoin still significantly away from this level, the majority of active capital is holding at a loss, resulting in heavy market caution.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Another critical price metric highlighted by Glassnode is the True Market Mean at $78,000, which represents a more refined estimate of the market\u2019s fair value by adjusting for lost coins and inactive supply. Trading below this level indicates that Bitcoin remains in a discount zone relative to its adjusted economic baseline.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Realized Price, currently at $54,200, continues to provide strong structural support on the macro scale. This level reflects the average on-chain acquisition price of all circulating Bitcoin and typically represents the market capitulation threshold. With spot price holding well above this threshold, the long-term bullish structure remains intact despite the recent prolonged correction.\n<\/p>\n<h2><b>Bitcoin Price Overview<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>At press time, Bitcoin is valued at $72,700, up 10% over the last week.
