Altcoin relative profits reached approximately 5% of the profit supply. Multi Asset Explorer data from Glassnode indicates that this represents a historical divergence from Bitcoin profitability. The analytics firm noted that the separation between the performance of Bitcoin and altcoin holders is unprecedented.
Altcoin’s relative profits are stabilizing in a deep capitulation zone, with only about 5% of the profit supply, while Bitcoin’s profits have only just started to decline sharply.
