Since the previous transaction of a coin was the last time ownership of that coin changed hands, the price at that time will indicate its cost basis. Therefore, the maximum achieved is the sum of the cost basis of all tokens in the circulating supply.
In other words, this model measures the total capital that investors have used to purchase the supply of assets. In contrast, market capitalization tracks the value that these investors own. As such, market capitalization, which compares these two measures, tells us about the profit/loss position of investors as a whole.
In the context of the current topic, the actual metric of interest is the “MVRV Z-score.” This indicator takes the difference between market value and realized value and divides it by the standard deviation of market value over the entire history of the asset.
Now, here is the chart shared by Santiment that shows the trend in this indicator for different coins in the sector:
Based on the MVRV Z-Score, Santiment has identified three areas regarding how far the asset is from its fair value. The chart shows that Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Uniswap (UNI) have been at -1.55 and -1.96 recently, putting these assets within the “undersold” zone.
At these MVRV Z-Score values, the market cap is much lower than the realized value, meaning investors are losing out on a massive scale. Dividend holders These coins are a more likely source of selling pressure in the market, so when there are fewer of them left, price corrections may become less likely.

For this reason, assets are considered undervalued when the index falls below -1 for them. For a similar reason, values above 1 are associated with an appreciation of the currency.
Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Toncoin (TON) have recently been within this latter zone, suggesting that their prices could be in danger of a sharp decline. On the other hand, Shiba Inu and Uniswap may be better positioned to weather the price surge.
