According to data shared by Santiment analyst Brian Quinlivan, the cryptocurrency market has shown resilience against the S&P 500 and gold in recent weeks.

An examination of the last five weeks shows that while the S&P 500 index has lost approximately 2.2%, Bitcoin has risen by 2.4% and gold by 3.7%.

Santiment, which examines the Market Value – Realized Value (MVRV) ratio, notes that the 365-day MVRV is around -25%. This data indicates that long-term investors are currently at a loss, and mathematically, buying at these levels carries much less risk than when the market peaked.
