Coin Days Destroyed refers to the amount of time each bitcoin has been held before it is transacted. It is calculated by multiplying the number of bitcoins being transacted by the number of days since they were last moved. For example, if you held one bitcoin for 10 days before transacting it, you would add 10 Coin Days Destroyed to the network. Similarly, if you held half a bitcoin for 20 days, it would also result in 10 Coin Days Destroyed. This metric highlights the age of bitcoins being moved and provides insight into the behavior of long-term holders.
The formula for calculating CDD is straightforward:
Coin Days Destroyed = Number of Coins × Days Since Last Move
This means that each time a bitcoin is transacted, the CDD value increases proportionally to the time it was held. For example:
- 1 BTC held for 10 days before being moved would contribute 10 coin days.
- 0.5 BTC held for 20 days before being moved would also contribute 10 coin days.
- 5 BTC that has not moved for 100 days has accumulated 500 coin days.
- 10 BTC that has not moved for 1 day has accumulated 10 coin days.
- 0.1 BTC that has not moved for 100 days has also accumulated 10 coin days.
The CDD metric is significant because it reflects the activity of long-term holders in the bitcoin market. These holders, who have kept their bitcoins for extended periods, often have substantial amounts of bitcoin and are assumed to have better market timing or inside knowledge on the best times to buy or sell. By examining the CDD metric, investors can gain insights into the actions of these experienced holders and understand their impact on the market.
When the CDD metric increases substantially, it often coincides with critical moments in bitcoin's price history, such as peaks and troughs. High CDD values indicate that long-term holders are moving their bitcoins, potentially to sell at market highs. Conversely, low CDD values suggest that few long-term holders are willing to sell, which can be a bullish signal, indicating a good time to accumulate bitcoin at potentially lower prices.
The CDD chart can be a valuable tool for identifying optimal times to buy or sell bitcoin. For instance, during periods of low CDD, it suggests that long-term holders are not moving their bitcoins, indicating strong hands and potential market stability. These periods can be opportune times to buy bitcoin at discounted prices, as historically seen.
On the other hand, when the CDD metric spikes, it can signal that long-term holders are moving their bitcoins, likely to capitalize on high prices. This movement often precedes market corrections, providing a warning to investors to consider taking profits or exercising caution.
