VDD Multiple
The VDD Multiple relates the dollar value of coin-days moved each day (coin days destroyed × daily price) to its own one-year mean. It sat high in the bull phases (Dec 2013 7.53 · Dec 2017 4.01 · Mar 2024 3.47, each rank ≥ 93). Lows are not reliably low: Dec 2018 1.52 (rank 60), Nov 2022 0.95 (rank 45) — old coins move during capitulation too. Price = BRK daily close, both means trailing. Published VDD variants differ in windows and normalisation; this is none of them. Descriptive, not a signal.
- Formula:
- VDD Multiple = SMA₃₀(CDD × Preis) ÷ SMA₃₆₅(CDD × Preis) · Preis = BRK price_close · Rang(t) expanding
- Originator:
- Own convention (Backtesting Arena, 2026) on coin days destroyed (ByteCoin, 2011)
- Data source:
- BRK (Bitcoin Research Kit, brk coindays_destroyed_sum_24h × price_close → brk_vdd_multiple, abgeleitet in der Ingestion inkl. pct_rank, point-in-time in btc_chart_metrics)

Is crypto-internal liquidity expanding or contracting? Stablecoin supply, spot-ETF flows and realized-cap change as 30-day impulses on one percentile scale — with breadth, dispersion and a declared composition. A state, not a signal.
Difference between market cap and realized cap, normalised by standard deviation. Values above 5 mark the top region (4 of 5 historical bull tops), below 0 every bottom.
