Bitcoin’s onchain sell-side risk has reached one of its lowest levels in history, according to latest analytics from Glassnode. The sell-side risk ratio (SSRR), which measures realized profits and losses relative to Bitcoin’s realized market cap, fell to 7 in September from 16 in September 2025, a drop that reflects diminished onchain selling activity amid the asset’s recent price rebound to around $80,000. This metric has historically signaled periods of accumulation and lower macro sell-side pressure, particularly when it falls below 10, as realized profits accumulate rather than dissipate quickly.
