Description

The Mayer Multiple measures how far Bitcoin's price has deviated from its 200-day moving average (200DMA). It serves as a simple but powerful valuation model that identifies when Bitcoin is undervalued, fairly priced, or overextended relative to its long-term trend.

What this endpoint provides

A quick and intuitive snapshot of Bitcoin's price position compared to its 200-day moving average — one of the most widely followed cycle indicators. It helps automations and dashboards contextualize short- to mid-term market conditions and detect overheated or undervalued phases.

Interpretation & Use

The Mayer Multiple provides a reliable historical reference for Bitcoin's cyclical valuation: • **< 0.8** → Undervalued zone — historically strong long-term buying opportunities. • **0.8–2.4** → Fair / healthy zone — sustainable bull phase or mid-cycle expansion. • **> 2.4** → Overheated zone — historically associated with market tops or speculative excess. Use the multiple, zone, and summary fields to monitor when price deviates materially from the 200-day moving average and to trigger automation rules (e.g., reduce leverage when Mayer Multiple > 2.4).
