With the recent price surge to a new all-time high (ATH) above $123,000, BTC was able to breach the +1 SD level, which has historically corresponded to heated market conditions.<\/p>\n<p>After the pullback, though, the coin has returned below the mark, but still remains close to it. &#8220;If this momentum continues, the next key level is $136k (2 +std), a zone that has historically marked elevated profit-taking and local market peaks,&#8221; explains Glassnode.<\/p>\n<p>While Bitcoin is still not overheated from the perspective of the STH Cost Basis model, other indicators paint a different picture. The STH Supply In Profit, an indicator tracking the percentage of the cohort&#8217;s supply that&#8217;s sitting on some gain, has recently surged far above the 88% threshold that has separated high-risk euphoric phases.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/Gv59EjXWQAALRk0?format=jpg&amp;name=large\" alt=\"Bitcoin STH Supply In Profit\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Another metric, measuring the percentage of STH volume that&#8217;s leading to profit realization, also similarly saw a jump significantly above the historical overheated cutoff of 62%.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/Gv59RJZXoAAkDio?format=jpg&amp;name=large\" alt=\"Bitcoin STH Spent Volume In Profit\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Such spikes often occur multiple times in bull markets, but repeated signals at these levels typically precede local tops and warrant caution,&#8221; notes the analytics firm.<\/p>\n<p>During this spike of profit-taking, the ratio between the profit and loss being realized by the Bitcoin STHs spiked to a 7-day exponential moving average (EMA) value of 39.8.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/Gv59WLiXsAArle8?format=jpg&amp;name=large\" alt=\"Bitcoin Realized Profit\/Loss By STHs\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is a value that&#8217;s, once again, extreme by historical standards. That said, spikes like this have generally occurred multiple times over the course of a cycle, before a top is finally attained.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Historically, cycle tops follow with a lag, leaving room for further upside,&#8221; says Glassnode. &#8220;However, risk is elevated and the market becomes increasingly sensitive to external shocks.
