Live editorial snapshot — numbers update on every refresh
Today's state: Wrapped Bitcoin is trading at $62,739.14 with a $8.2 billion market capitalization (rank #13). The price moved +0.48% over the past 24 hours and is -6.51% over 7 days; the 30-day move stands at +1.15% and the 90-day at +0.00%.
Position vs cycle: A 50%-plus discount to the all-time high is a deep correction in which, historically, momentum and liquidity have mattered more for the recovery path than statistical mean-reversion.
Volatility and structure: 30-day realized volatility of 37.6% annualized is moderate for an asset this size. Our composite multi-horizon Price Strength reads Bearish (37/100), against a weakening multi-horizon backdrop with cumulative pressure across 30/90-day windows.

Across the grid, Wrapped Bitcoin has gained 0.48% in the past 24 hours; the 7-day reading is 6.51% lower and the 30-day stands 1.15% higher. Across the past year it shows losses of 28.23%, against a weakening multi-horizon backdrop.
The asset currently trades 50.2% below its all-time high, far enough below the peak that the path back has tended to hinge on renewed narrative demand rather than mechanical mean-reversion. 30-day realized volatility sits at 38% annualized — moderate territory for a crypto asset of this size.
Right now Wrapped Bitcoin is exhibiting adequate turnover sufficient for retail-sized entries. 24-hour trading volume represents 0.262% of market capitalization — our liquidity-health composite scores this as Adequate (42/100). This is on the lighter end of the top-100 range; large orders should be sliced into the market rather than executed at once.
The 90-day Pearson correlation of WBTC's daily returns versus Bitcoin's is +1.00 — a very strong positive relationship. Wrapped Bitcoin is tightly tethered to Bitcoin here — it is difficult to earn returns independent of BTC, since the two move together with WBTC usually the more volatile of the pair.

Three independent models feed the forecast above, following the STNews methodology:
- Technical model reads moving-average, ATR, Bollinger-band and trend-slope signals to set its ranges — it carries most weight in an orderly trend or range.
- Statistical (Monte Carlo) model uses the 90-day distribution of daily log returns to project the 5th, 50th and 95th percentile prices at each horizon — useful as an unbiased baseline that does not assume any trend continuation.
- Peer-relative model looks at same-category, similar-cap coins and projects the price implied by matching their median, lower-quartile and upper-quartile return profiles, anchoring the forecast to sector behaviour.
The ensemble forecast is a weighted blend — 40% statistical, 30% technical, 30% peer-relative. The confidence badge tracks model agreement: the tighter the three cluster, the higher the confidence; wide disagreement lowers it and flags a regime where statistics alone are unreliable.
Cross-asset correlations (90d)
Pearson correlation of daily log returns vs top L1 references
Looking past Bitcoin alone, how closely WBTC tracks the next two biggest layer-1s over 90 days indicates whether it is mostly market beta or something more independent. The daily-log-return correlations:
- Bitcoin reference: +1.00 — a very strong positive relationship.
- Ethereum reference: +0.90 — a very strong positive relationship.
- Solana reference: +0.83 — a very strong positive relationship.
When an asset correlates strongly with multiple majors, it is trading largely as market beta — the big caps set the direction and standalone outperformance is elusive. Weak or negative correlations instead signal idiosyncratic forces (its own news, sector rotation, narrative changes) capable of producing returns the broader market does not share.
About Wrapped Bitcoin
Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) is a cryptocurrency, traded on global digital-asset markets. It trades at $62,739.14 as of the latest update, with a 24-hour move up 0.48%, placing it at rank #17 by market capitalisation among all listed digital assets. Wrapped Bitcoin's current market cap stands at $8.23B, a figure used by traders, analysts and institutional desks to gauge relative liquidity and risk exposure across the crypto market.
On this page you'll find a live, daily-refreshed dashboard tracking Wrapped Bitcoin across multiple data sources — price history going back several years, on-chain activity where available, fundamentals like circulating supply and dilution, top exchanges by volume, technical analysis using moving averages and RSI, and an algorithmic short, mid and long-term forecast. All figures are pulled from public APIs and cached locally; nothing here is investment advice.
Wrapped Bitcoin lets holders of the underlying asset participate in DeFi or applications on a different blockchain while keeping exposure to the underlying. Wrapped versions of major assets are widely used as collateral, as liquidity for DEX pools, and as building blocks in structured DeFi products.
Wrapped Bitcoin currently ranks #13 by market capitalisation, making it a top-25 asset. It currently trades about 50% below its all-time high of $126,028.40 set in October 2025.
By market value Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) sits inside the top 25, trading at $62,739.14 as of the latest snapshot. WBTC is +0.48% over 24 hours, -6.51% over the past week, +1.15% over 30 days, putting it among the weekly underperformers across the top 250 by market capitalisation. Wrapped Bitcoin remains roughly 50% beneath its all-time high of $126,028.40, a level reached 9 months ago. Trading volume is light versus market value — only about 0.2% of capitalisation changes hands daily — so larger orders can move price more than they would for higher-liquidity peers.
On a one-year view WBTC has lost 28.2%, against a broader crypto-market backdrop that closed the period roughly flat after several volatile quarters.
How it works — Wrapped Bitcoin
Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) is a wrapped asset: a token that represents another underlying asset on a different blockchain, issued under a custody or smart-contract guarantee. The underlying asset is held (or staked) by a custodian or protocol, and an equivalent amount of the wrapped token is minted on the destination chain. Burning the wrapped token releases the underlying.
Wrapped tokens are designed to track the underlying asset 1:1. Peg deviations occur when redemption is interrupted, when custody is questioned, or when DEX liquidity becomes thin. The metric that matters is not "price" but peg-to-underlying.
Wrapped Bitcoin currently ranks #13 by market capitalisation, making it a top-25 asset. It currently trades about 50% below its all-time high of $126,028.40 set in October 2025.
Use cases — Wrapped Bitcoin
Wrapped Bitcoin is used wherever the underlying asset is needed in a different on-chain environment: as DeFi collateral, as part of liquidity pools, as a yield-bearing alternative (in the case of staking derivatives), and as the substrate for structured products. It is rarely used for direct speculation — that demand goes to the underlying.
Daily turnover is light — roughly 0.24% of market cap ($19.98M over 24 hours) — so larger orders are best worked into the market gradually to limit slippage.
Tokenomics
Supply schedule & distribution
- Circulating supply: 131.18K WBTC — tokens actively trading and held by the public
- Total supply: 131.18K WBTC — all tokens minted to date (including those locked or held by the issuer)
Wrapped Bitcoin's supply schedule directly affects its long-term inflation rate and, by extension, how dilutive future issuance will be to existing holders. A coin near full dilution behaves very differently from one that still has 60% of its supply waiting to be unlocked.
Supply economics
Issuance pressure, dilution, and structural value accrual
Wrapped Bitcoin is a wrapped token — supply expands as more of the underlying asset is custodied (or staked, in the case of liquid-staking derivatives) and contracts as the wrapped tokens are burned to redeem. There is no independent emission schedule. The tokenomics question that matters is whether the underlying is fully backing the wrapped supply, which depends on the custodian or protocol design.
Investors should treat the wrapped-token supply as a measure of how much "demand for on-chain DeFi access to the underlying" exists at the current moment. Growing supply suggests rising demand for DeFi composability with the underlying; shrinking supply suggests the opposite.
Trader's note
Coin-type-aware tactical interpretation
For Wrapped Bitcoin as a wrapped token, the relevant tactical question is peg-to-underlying rather than independent price discovery. The asset should track its underlying 1:1; sustained deviation indicates either custody/redemption stress (in custodial wraps like WBTC) or liquidity imbalance in the protocols where the wrapped token lives.
Holders typically use the wrapped form to access DeFi composability that the underlying alone cannot — yield on stETH, lending against WBTC on Aave, providing AMM liquidity. Position should be sized against the wrapper risk (smart contract + custodian) in addition to the underlying market risk. Price Strength of 37/100 typically tracks the underlying closely; meaningful divergence is the signal to investigate, not to trade.

Market sentiment
Crypto Fear & Greed Index · alternative.me
The Crypto Fear & Greed Index aggregates volatility, market momentum, social media activity, dominance and Google Trends data into a single 0–100 score updated daily. Today's reading is 22 — Extreme Fear.
Extreme fear (below 25) historically signals buying opportunities for contrarians, while extreme greed (above 75) often precedes corrections. The index works best as one input among many, not as a standalone trading signal.
Macro & cross-asset context
How macro liquidity and cross-asset moves frame the trade
The macro picture for digital assets turns on three levers — Federal Reserve policy, the path of dollar liquidity, and broad risk sentiment. Historically the whole asset class has tracked the global liquidity cycle closely, expanding in easing regimes and contracting when financial conditions tighten.
The cross-asset relationships worth watching: the dollar index (DXY), historically inversely correlated with crypto over longer windows; the 10-year Treasury yield, a proxy for the cost of risk capital; gold, which sometimes shares a "monetary hedge" framing with Bitcoin during regime changes; and the S&P 500, which during liquidity-driven moves often rhymes with crypto despite the "uncorrelated" narrative.
Narrowing to Wrapped Bitcoin, the cleanest leading signal has usually been crypto-native liquidity — the combined trend in stablecoin supply, futures open interest and exchange turnover. When that pool of on-chain capital grows, WBTC has tended to advance with it; when it drains, the move has typically gone into reverse. Given the 90-day BTC correlation of +1.00, WBTC's near-term macro sensitivity will be similar to Bitcoin's — driven primarily by the same liquidity conditions and risk-asset flows.
Risks
Risks are specific to wrapped assets: custody risk (the underlying may be compromised or seized), smart contract risk (mint/burn logic could be exploited), peg risk (the wrapped token can trade below par during stress), and protocol-specific governance risk (changes to the wrapping protocol may affect redeemability). Users should treat the wrapped token as exposure to the underlying plus the wrapper's risk surface.
