Bitcoin is approaching a critical inflection point—when it enters realized profit territory, the entire market psychology shifts. There's a reason traders watch this metric so closely. The moment most holders see green, behavior changes. People start bidding more aggressively, FOMO kicks in, and you see conviction return to buying pressure. Right now, we're sitting at that threshold where sentiment could tip. If BTC breaks through and stays in profitable territory, expect to see a cascade of fresh buying interest. It's less about the price itself and more about what it does to investor mentality. History shows this transition period tends to precede notable momentum swings.

Well... basically, it's just waiting for a break below. Psychological expectations are more heartbreaking than the price itself.

Well, the logic of realized profit has been discussed many times before, but it really is human nature... Once you see green, your mind goes blank, and it's all FOMO... Let's wait and see if BTC can stabilize.

Now just waiting to see the moment of breakdown, psychological game theory is the real winner's game.

Wait, is realized profit really that amazing? I think most people are just buying out of spite now.

Speaking of this realized profit thing, I'm really tired of it. It's always the same explanation, but in the end? Retail investors still get cut.
