Yet, Fidelity noted that the short-term pain may swing in the altcoin\u2019s favor.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The investment firm pointed out that the MVRV Z-Score, which compares market value to realized value, dropped to -0.18, entering the &#8220;undervalued&#8221; zone on March 9. Historically, such levels have marked market bottoms, indicating that Ether \u201cwas looking cheap\u201d compared to its \u201cfair value.\u201d The Net Unrealized Profit\/Loss (NUPL) ratio also fell to 0, indicating &#8220;capitulation,&#8221; where unrealized profits equal losses, citing a neutral spot for holders.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin Price, Markets, Ethereum Price\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.cointelegraph.com\/uploads\/2025-04\/01968230-6e39-7f48-b3c6-ec5269d6658f\" title=\"\"><figcaption style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Ethereum MVRV Z-score.
