Response Data
data is an array; each element is one day's data, and timestamp is the millisecond timestamp of 00:00 (UTC) on that day. This endpoint has no request parameters and returns the full history at once: as of 2026-10-20, 5936 records in total, and the first record is the earliest data (2010-07-15). The example on the right keeps only the first 2.

FAQ
Is lth_sopr a percentage value?
No, it is a ratio. For example, 1.04 means the value at the time of selling is about 1.04 times the value at the time of the previous move, i.e., an average profit of about 4%; 1 means break-even.
Can I query ETH or other coins?
No. This endpoint is a fixed bitcoin indicator dataset with no coin parameter; it only returns bitcoin data.
Can I query data for a specific time range only?
No. This endpoint has no parameters and always returns the full history (the response is about 440 KB). If you need a specific period, filter locally by timestamp. We recommend caching the results and refreshing as needed; there is no need to request frequently.
How often is it updated?
Once a day. The latest day's data may still be updated during that day; when getting data by date, rely on timestamp.
Learn More: Bitcoin SOPR and Long-Term Holders
What Is SOPR?
SOPR (Spent Output Profit Ratio) divides the USD value of coins spent (moved) on-chain at the time they are spent by their USD value at the time of their previous move. A SOPR greater than 1 means these coins were sold at a profit on average, less than 1 means they were sold at a loss on average, and equal to 1 means break-even.
What Is Special About Long-Term Holder SOPR?
LTH-SOPR only counts coins spent by long-term holders. These coins have been held for a long time and usually have a lower cost, so they are often sold with a large profit or loss, and the values fluctuate more widely than the overall SOPR.
How Do Long-Term and Short-Term Holder SOPR Differ?
Short-term holder SOPR reflects the profit or loss of recent buyers when they sell; it changes quickly and often fluctuates around 1. Long-term holder SOPR reflects the profits on old coins and changes more slowly. For short-term holder data, see Bitcoin Short-Term Holder SOPR.
