Reserve Risk
Cardano
Reserve Risk quantifies the confidence of long-term holders relative to the price, comparing the incentive to sell against the conviction to hold.
Why it matters
It identifies attractive risk/reward zones for accumulation, when holder conviction is high but price is low.
How it is built
Price is divided by HODL Bank — the accumulated opportunity cost that holders forgo by not selling — so low readings mean strong conviction at low prices.
What to watch
Historically, very low Reserve Risk (deep-value zone) has marked outstanding long-term buying opportunities, while high readings warn that conviction is being spent into rising prices near tops.
