As on-chain and market data provided by Santiment suggest, Cardano and other altcoins have entered a historical ''buying opportunity'' zone, according to MVRV Divergence. During increased volatility in the crypto market, when retail traders mostly follow the general trends on the market, some assets become extremely overbought, while others remain oversold.
According to the chart provided, Cardano has reached a point where ADA prices historically rise per the 30-day MVRV divergence. Santiment reports that Cardano's average trading returns in the 30-day mid-term interval have fallen below -15%, suggesting oversold conditions. It notes this is historically an MVRV level where ADA and many other altcoins see at least a short turnaround in price to alleviate the losses mounting on networks.
MVRV, or Market Value to Realized Value, is a ratio that allows cryptocurrency investors to tell if the price of an asset is fair or not. As a standalone metric, MVRV is used to determine market tops and bottoms.
