Metrics

The Metrics section is the main reference section of CoreCharts documentation.

It brings together the principal series used across CoreCharts, including on-chain, market, supply, mining, and holder-behavior metrics. The purpose of this section is to define each metric clearly, explain how it is used, and show how it fits into Bitcoin analysis.

How This Section Works

Not all metrics answer the same kind of question.

Some describe system state, such as supply, issuance, or difficulty. Some describe network activity, such as addresses, fees, and transaction composition. Others are more useful for valuation, market structure, holder behavior, or coin-age analysis.

For that reason, these pages are most useful when read in relation to one another rather than in isolation.

Metric Groups

The Metrics section is organized into six groups.

Addresses

Address metrics focus on activity, balance change, and participation across the network.

Market & Valuation

This group places Bitcoin in price and valuation context.

Network Activity

Network activity metrics describe transaction-level usage, fee pressure, throughput, and demand for blockspace.

Supply

Supply metrics cover Bitcoin’s monetary structure, including issuance, inflation, halving, and economic-supply splits.

Mining

Hash rate, difficulty, subsidy, fees, miner revenue, hash price, and the security budget sit in this group.

UTXO & Coin Age

Holder behavior, dormancy, supply age, and spent-side age dynamics are the main focus here.

Scope

This section documents the Bitcoin metrics used inside CoreCharts.

It is focused on the CoreCharts analytical framework rather than on listing every metric ever published. Where needed, the docs distinguish between native-unit and display-unit series, stock and flow measures, current-state and spent-side metrics, and broad activity proxies versus more selective behavioral signals.

Where To Start

If you are new to the section, Supply, Mining, Network Activity, and UTXO & Coin Age are the most practical starting points.

If you already know what you need, you can move directly to the relevant metric page or use search to find a specific metric, term, or related topic.
