Bitcoin’s YoY True MVRV flips positive, signaling reduced selling pressure.CryptoQuant chart shows new accumulation zone forming, similar to past market bottoms.CoinGlass data reveals Bitcoin is consolidating with steady gains and low short-term volatility.Bitcoin’s on-chain indicators show renewed strength, with major metrics suggesting a possible turning point for the asset’s price cycle. As of early May 2025, the Year-over-Year (YoY) True Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) metric has returned to positive territory.Analysts view this change as an early signal that Bitcoin may be transitioning from a phase of uncertainty into a more stable period of growth. This shift coincides with reduced selling pressure and many profitable holders.Recent data from CryptoQuant shows the YoY True MVRV metric, which measures the difference between market value and realized value of coins purchased over the past year, has risen above zero. This means that, on average, Bitcoin holders who acquired coins in the past 12 months are now holding at a profit. Historically, this transition from negative to positive territory in the MVRV metric has marked the beginning of recovery cycles.Source: XOn-chain analyst Axel Adler Jr. highlighted the value of this shift in a post on X, noting that fewer investors now feel the need to exit positions at a loss. This reduced selling pressure increases market stability and may signal the start of a more sustainable uptrend. According to Adler, this inflection coincides with periods where confidence returns, and holders become less reactive to short-term volatility.The return of YoY True MVRV to positive territory means that the average purchase price of all coins acquired over the past year is now below the current market price. The pressure from panic sellers is decreasing – many are now in profit and don't need to lock in losses.

Strong price recoveries followed these periods. In May 2025, another pink zone was recently formed, raising the possibility that Bitcoin is nearing the end of its current accumulation phase.Long-Term Price Trends Show Reduced VolatilitySupporting this view is a performance chart from CoinGlass that visualizes Bitcoin’s price changes across weekly, monthly, and quarterly timeframes. The chart reflects BTC’s high volatility since 2020, with major swings during bull markets and corrections.Source: CoinglassQuarterly returns jumped above 300%, in the positive direction of Bitcoin’s rise to its new highs, pushing above $100,000 in late 2020 and early 2021. After that, some gains were later corrected in mid-2021 and again in mid-2022.Conversely, Bitcoin’s growth since late 2023 has turned out to have more constant gains with less volatile corrections. The latest data on the weekly and monthly bars, up to early 2025, indicates smaller movements, indicating market price consolidation. But with the short term halt there are positive returns on a quarterly level, therefore the trend higher is more broad than short.At present, Bitcoin is trading at nearly the $96,000 mark, while the True MVRV remains stable. Similar patterns as observed on previous recovery stages are seen in that divergence between realized value metrics and market price. As long as this continues, Bitcoin could be on the cusp of the next leg up in its long term, which is bolstered by strengthened investor position and on chain fundamentals.

Foreign selling in the South Korean stock market accelerates, with cumulative net sales reportedly reaching $75 billion this year

On June 9, The Kobeissi Letter, citing Goldman Sachs data, reported that global investors are selling South Korean stocks at an unusually rapid pace. In the latest trading session, foreign investors sold about $801 million worth of Kospi constituent stocks again; total foreign outflows last week reached about $10 billion, and the market has been in net foreign selling on nearly every trading day over the past month. According to the data cited in the report, foreign investors have sold about $75 billion worth of South Korean stocks so far this year. Meanwhile, South Korean retail and institutional investors together recorded roughly $69 billion in net buying over the same period, suggesting that the market’s main buying support has come from domestic capital rather than returning overseas funds. The information currently disclosed still mainly comes from The Kobeissi Letter’s retelling and Goldman Sachs data summaries, while public details on the statistical period and the specific definition of “selling” remain relatively limited.
