Net realized profit for Bitcoin investors reached $207 million., 2026/05/05 13:52:33

The net realized profit of Bitcoin investors has reached $207 million, marking a monthly high. This indicates market strength, according to analysts from the Santiment platform.

The realized profit metric reflects the difference between the purchase and sale prices of coins and serves as an indicator of investor activity. The increase in Bitcoin’s metric occurred alongside a price recovery: for the first time in approximately three months, the value of the leading cryptocurrency surpassed $80,000. This rise was accompanied by active profit-taking by investors.

Santiment analysts believe that significant sell-offs have not weakened the Bitcoin market. On the contrary, the supply volume in the hundreds of millions of dollars was absorbed by demand, allowing BTC to maintain its position above a crucial price level. Analysts suggest that several factors indicate the resilience of the Bitcoin market: demand offsets selling pressure, investors are taking profits during price increases rather than in panic, and there is a redistribution of coins to new participants at higher prices.

Experts believe that profit-taking influences the establishment of a new average entry price. As Bitcoin transitions to buyers around the $80,000 mark, this level may serve as a potential support zone. Santiment noted that similar spikes in activity have been observed previously—often coinciding with the middle of bullish cycles and not hindering further market growth.

Currently, while the realized profit metric is at a monthly peak, it remains below historical levels. According to Santiment analysts, this may indicate a lack of overheating signs in the market.

Earlier, experts from Bernstein reported that a key driver of optimism in the Bitcoin market continues to be a steady influx of capital from major asset management firms and brokers.
