How it works

1
We gather 6 categories
Sentiment, momentum, trend, derivatives, macro and network — from free or self-computed sources.
2
We blend them into one number
Each signal is normalized to 0-100 and weighted with a public, versioned formula.
3
You read it contrarian
High (green) = near the floor, accumulation zone. Low (red) = near the top, distribution / late cycle.

ABYSS Altseason
Measures whether alts are beating Bitcoin (0-100, our own data): the alt basket's 90-day performance versus BTC. High (purple)=altseason; low (amber)=Bitcoin season; ~50=balanced.

Each alt's 90-day performance vs BTC (how much its ALT/BTC ratio rose or fell), mapped to 0-100 (50 = same as BTC). The basket average is the index: above 50 = alts beating BTC. Our own signal.

On-chain · our own datanode

MVRV
Market cap ÷ realized cap (coins' average cost). On-chain, from our own node. Below 1 (green)=market at a loss/floor; well above (red)=extreme profit/top.
1.56
mid valuation
MVRV-Z
MVRV expressed in standard deviations from its own history. On-chain, from our node. Very low (green)=historic bottom; above ~7 (red)=historic top.
0.97
undervalued
NUPL
The whole market's unrealized profit/loss, on-chain from our node. Negative (green)=capitulation/floor; toward 1 (red)=euphoria/top. Reflects market psychology.

Realized price

market cost basis

At its on-chain close of $83,471, BTC was 56% above the market's average cost basis ($53,652) → MVRV 1.56, mid valuation.

MVRV-Z standardizes MVRV against its own history (z-score), so extremes flag cycle bottoms (below ~0.1) and tops (above ~7). Now 0.97 → undervalued.

Cycle multiples
Mayer Multiple
BTC price ÷ its 200-day moving average (price-based). Gauges cheap vs expensive against its trend. <0.8 (green)=undervalued; the 2.4 line (red) has marked tops.
1.17
fair value
Puell Multiple
USD value of BTC's daily issuance ÷ its 365-day average (issuance + price). Gauges miner stress. <0.5 (green)=capitulation/floor; >4 (red)=extreme revenue/top.
1.16
neutral
Pi Cycle Top
Compares the 111-day average with twice the 350-day (price), shown as their ratio. Near 1 (red) they cross and it flagged the 2013/17/21 tops; low (green)=top far off.
0.44
far from top
2Y MA Multiplier
BTC price versus its 2-year moving average and that average ×5 (price). <1 (green)=below the 2-year MA (historic floors); above ×5 (red)=overbought (tops).
0.94
below 2Y MA (accumulation)

Mayer (price/200D avg), Puell (issuance value/365D avg), Pi Cycle Top (111D vs 2×350D — marks tops at 1) and the 2-Year MA Multiplier — all computed by us from price + emission.
