What this means
MVRV sits in the middle stretch of its own history - neither near holders' aggregate
cost basis nor stretched well above it - while BTC is moving onto exchanges on net.
In this classifier's backfilled history this state has tended to be short-lived
compared to its accumulating counterpart, often resolving within a couple of weeks.
The v1 rule
Valuation reads "mid-range" when MVRV's percentile against its own full history is
above the 25th percentile and at or below the 75th percentile, and MVRV itself is at
or above 1.0. Flow direction reads "distributing" when the net exchange flow (30-day)
and exchange reserve change (90-day) signals combine, under v1's two-vote system, to a
net positive reading: more BTC arriving at exchanges than leaving. This is a pinned v1
classifier rule, not a permanent definition - a future version could set these
thresholds differently.
What would change the state
Valuation would need MVRV's percentile to fall to the 25th percentile or below (or
MVRV itself under 1.0) to move to below-basis, or to rise above the 75th percentile to
move to stretched. Separately, the flow and reserve signals would need to flip to a
net negative reading - more BTC leaving exchanges than arriving - for the direction
label to flip to accumulating. The two dimensions move independently; either can
change while the other holds.
