The total estimated amount of coins moved by long-term holders in profit. Volume transferred within addresses of the same entity is excluded. Coins are considered to be in profit when the price at the time the coins are spent is higher than the entity's average on-chain acquisition price for its funds. Long- and Short-Term Holder supply is defined with respect to the entity's averaged purchasing date with weights given by a logistic function centered at an age of 155 days and a transition width of 10 days.
Entities are defined as a cluster of addresses that are controlled by the same network entity and are estimated through advanced heuristics and Glassnode's proprietary clustering algorithms. Note that entity–based metrics are based on data science techniques and statistical information that changes over time and are therefore mutable – the data is stable, but most recent data points are subject to slight fluctuations as time progresses. For more information see this article.
This is the Point-in-Time (PiT) variant of Entity-Adjusted LTH Transfer Volume in Profit. PiT metrics are strictly append-only and their history is immutable. The historic data does not necessarily reflect the best current knowledge, but the information at the time when a data point was first computed. PiT metrics are ideal candidates for applications in model backtesting and related quantitative purposes. Read our article on PiT metrics for more information.
