On-chain analytics firm Santiment has highlighted how Ethereum is still 
undervalued on the MVRV, while Bitcoin and XRP have turned neutral. 
Profitability Has Shifted For Bitcoin, XRP, &amp; Ethereum After The Price Jump In 
a new post on X, Santiment has talked about how the 30-day Market Value to 
Realized Value (MVRV) Ratio has changed for some major digital assets 
following the market recovery that has occurred over the past day. The MVRV 
Ratio is a popular on-chain indicator that compares the market cap of an asset 
against its Realized Cap, a measure of the total amount of capital that 
investors have put into the network. Related Reading: Cardano Sharks &amp; Whales 
Quietly Accumulate 819M ADA Amid Price Decline In short, what the MVRV Ratio 
tells us about is the profit-loss status of addresses on the blockchain as a 
whole. When the metric is above the 1 mark, it means investors are, on 
average, in a state of unrealized profit. On the other hand, the indicator 
being under this threshold suggests the dominance of losses. Here, the MVRV 
Ratio of the entire network isn&#8217;t of relevance, but that of a particular slice 
of it: the buyers from the past month. Below is the chart shared by Santiment 
that shows the trend in the cohort&#8217;s MVRV Ratio for the five top 
cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Cardano, and Chainlink. From the 
graph, it&#8217;s visible that the 30-day MVRV Ratio has risen for all five of these 
assets recently. This is a natural result of the price recovery that has taken 
place over the past day. Bitcoin has returned above $68,000, and Ethereum is 
back beyond $2,000. While prices across the market have surged, the MVRV Ratio 
isn&#8217;t reflecting a uniform situation. Bitcoin, XRP, and Chainlink are all 
inside the neutral zone with the metric sitting at -1.4%, -0.1%, and +3.3%, 
respectively (note that the 0% mark corresponds to the 1 level here). 
Meanwhile, Ethereum has seen its 30-day trader returns remain inside a zone 
that the analytics firm defines as corresponding to a &#8220;mildly undervalued&#8221; 
status, despite the fact that the coin&#8217;s price has surged 6% in the last 24 
hours. Though with an MVRV Ratio of -5.5%, ETH is only just inside the area. 
On the other end of the spectrum is Cardano, which has observed the indicator 
fly to a value of +6.8%, entering into the &#8220;mildly overvalued&#8221; zone. 
Generally, the larger the investor profits get, the more likely they are to 
participate in profit-taking. Due to this reason, a high value on the MVRV 
Ratio can be a sign that a correction could be coming. Similarly, a low value 
suggests the presence of a high degree of market pain, which could result in a 
bottom formation. Related Reading: Bitcoin Yet To See Meaningful Capital

&#8216;Overvalued&#8217; zone.&#8221; ETH Price Ethereum briefly broke above $2,100 during its 
surge, but the coin has since witnessed a minor retrace to $2,070. Featured
