The on-chain analytics firm Santiment has revealed how Shiba Inu and XRP are among altcoins that are seeing a bullish divergence on the MVRV Z-Score.

Blockchain analytics firm Santiment has revealed that XRP and Shiba Inu are among the altcoins showing a bullish divergence on the MVRV Z-Score.

According to a recent post by Santiment on X, the firm has examined the performance of top coins in the crypto space on the MVRV Z-Score. The “Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio” is an indicator used to gauge the deviation between the total value held by investors of an asset (i.e., the market cap) and the price they used to purchase it (i.e., the realized cap).

When the value of this indicator is positive, it signifies that the holders of the given coin as a whole are currently unrealized net profits. Conversely, the metric being below zero suggests the dominance of losses in the market.

Here's the chart shared by the analytics firm showing the trend in the MVRV Z-Score for different top assets by market cap over the past few months.

The chart above shows that Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Dogecoin (DOGE), and Toncoin (TON) are all currently in the positive territory of the MVRV Z-Score, indicating that their average traders are enjoying profits.

At the same time, XRP (XRP), Cardano (ADA), Shiba Inu (SHIB), Chainlink (LINK), Polygon (MATIC), and Uniswap (UNI) are seeing their investors carrying a higher unrealized loss than profit.

Typically, investors in profits are more likely to sell their coins, and the probability of this profit-taking only increases with more gains they hold. Thus, a high MVRV Z-Score has historically led to tops for any cryptocurrency’s price.

Of the four assets in the positive territory of the indicator right now, Toncoin has the indicator at the highest level, suggesting that a selloff due to profit-taking could be probable for it.

In the case of the coins inside the negative region, their prices could instead see a bullish outlook, as there may not be many sellers left for them now. Shiba Inu and Uniswap are particularly seeing the most deviation between the market and realized cap.

“If you believe markets are about to surge, then history says that buying into assets that traders have experienced the most pain in, have a greater probability of netting high returns for you,” notes Santiment. As such, coins like SHIB may be offering the best buying window right now, according to the MVRV Z-Score.
