Here\u2019s how the figure compares for Bitcoin and Ethereum.<\/p>\n<h2>XRP Retail Realized Price Puts Profit Margin Around 60%<\/h2>\n<p>In a new <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/glassnode\/status\/1990932261156323331\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">post<\/a> on X, on-chain analytics firm Glassnode has discussed how retail profitability compares between the top assets in the sector: Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP. <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/retail-drive-xrp-price-to-1000\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">Retail investors<\/a> refer to the smallest of entities in the market, who don\u2019t hold a significant balance on an individual level (typically less than $1,000). To calculate the profit-loss balance of this cohort, Glassnode has made use of the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/realized-price-theory-bitcoin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">Realized Price<\/a> indicator.<\/p>\n<p>The Realized Price measures the average cost basis or acquisition level of a given segment of the network. When the asset\u2019s spot price trades above this level, it means the group is in a state of net unrealized gain. On the other hand, it being under the metric implies the dominance of loss among the cohort members.<\/p>\n<p>First, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Realized Price for the retail investors on the XRP network:<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/G6E1eNaWgAA9CtM?format=jpg&amp;name=4096x4096\" alt=\"XRP Retail Realized Price\" width=\"3200\" height=\"1800\"><\/p>\n<p>As displayed in the above graph, XRP has witnessed bearish price action recently, but its price still has a notable gap over the Realized Price of the retail entities. More specifically, this group is in an average profit of 60% right now. Ethereum retail holders are also in the green, but their profitability isn\u2019t quite as good, sitting at 40%.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/G6E1ewRW4AART1m?format=jpg&amp;name=4096x4096\" alt=\"Ethereum Retail\" width=\"3200\" height=\"1800\"><\/p>\n<p>Both XRP and Ethereum, however, pale in comparison to Bitcoin. Even after the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/el-salvador-buys-the-dip-adds-1090-bitcoin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">price crash<\/a>, BTC retail addresses are still in an average profit of more than 100%.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/G6E1ebEXwAAcaOH?format=jpg&amp;name=4096x4096\" alt=\"Bitcoin Retail\" width=\"3200\" height=\"1800\"><\/p>\n<p>Now, what are retail investors doing with their profits? On-chain analytics firm Santiment has shed light on the matter in an X <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/santimentfeed\/status\/1990868965711568940\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">post<\/a>. As the chart below for the holdings of this cohort shows, selling has occurred on all three networks recently.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/G6D6zCTXIAA8C1P?format=jpg&amp;name=4096x4096\" alt=\"XRP Retail Holdings\" width=\"3022\" height=\"1695\"><\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin retail was accumulating until the latest price plunge, but this bearish wave has spooked them into selling 0.36% of their supply over the last five days, which is the highest rate of distribution in two months. Ethereum retail has been exiting for a while now, and the trend has only continued during the past month as the cohort\u2019s holdings have gone down by 0.90%. XRP\u2019s small hands have shown a more mixed behavior, first participating in a sharp selloff, and then following on with slight accumulation. Overall, the group\u2019s supply is down 1.38% since the start of November.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPrices move the opposite direction of small wallets\u2019 behavior,\u201d noted Santiment. \u201cSo we\u2019re keeping an eye on retail traders continuing to panic sell as a positive sign for crypto\u2019s recovery.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>XRP Price<\/h2>\n<p>XRP has fallen alongside the rest of the market as its price has returned to $2.13.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/rSZNTdsG\/\" alt=\"XRP Price Chart\" width=\"1486\" height=\"915\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On-chain data shows XRP retail investors are up 60% even after the market downturn.
