Realized profit is the summed difference between sale price and acquisition price across all spent coins where the sale price was higher than the acquisition price. Cohorts span from whales to retail investors based on native-asset balance. [Realized Loss by Wallet Size](https://studio.glassnode.com/metrics?a=BTC\u0026m=breakdowns.RealizedLossByWalletSize) is the loss counterpart. [Realized Profit](https://studio.glassnode.com/metrics?a=BTC\u0026m=indicators.RealizedProfit) is the related base variant without segmentation.\n\n**Technical.** Breakdowns use an [address-based approach](https://research.glassnode.com/account-based-metrics/), analyzing transactions and holdings at the wallet-address level to keep results comparable across digital assets and consistent across different blockchain architectures. This contrasts with the UTXO-based approach available for some chains (e.g. Bitcoin), and cross-method comparisons may show small deviations. An address's wallet-size band is set by its balance before the spend. Profit and loss are measured against each address's average acquisition price. For BTC, ETH and ETH tokens, spends are netted per address per block, which removes change; for DOGE, TRX, XRP, TON and TON tokens, all transfers are counted. For ETH tokens, burn addresses are excluded.\n\n**Interpretation.** Surfaces how realized profits concentrate across investor classes, from whales down to retail. Answers questions of the form: are larger wallets (whales) realizing more profits than smaller wallets (retail investors)?\n"},"data_sharing_group":"onchain"}}
