BTC - Realized Capitalization (USD)

Description

The Bitcoin Realized Capitalization (Realized Cap) is calculated as the sum of the cost basis (USD) of all UTXOs in the ledger. It is the variant of market capitalization using cost basis instead of market price.

Bitcoin's USD Market Price is included for reference.

Pseudocode

for each block in blockchain:
  real_cap_usd := sum(ledger.utxo[].costbasis_usd)
  (x,y) := (block.time, real_cap_usd)

for each hour in blockchain:
  hr_real_cap_usd := open(blockchain[hr_start:hr_end].real_cap_usd)
  (x,y) := (hour, hr_real_cap_usd)

for each day in blockchain:
  day_real_cap_usd := open(blockchain[day_start:day_end].real_cap_usd)
  (x,y) := (day, day_real_cap_usd)
