On-chain shows Bitcoin miner outflows have been elevated recently, suggesting miners were involved in the recent selloff that took the price of the crypto below $42k.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Miner Outflows Spiked Up Before The Crash Below $42k<\/h2>\n

As pointed out by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post<\/a>, BTC miners seem to have been one of the sellers behind the price drop to $42k.<\/p>\n

The relevant indicator here is the “miner outflow<\/a>,” which measures the total amount of Bitcoin exiting wallets of all miners.<\/p>\n

When the value of this metric spikes up, it means miners are moving a large number of coins out of their wallets right now. Such a trend can be bearish for the price of the crypto as it may be a sign of dumping from these original whales.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, low values of these outflows suggest a normal or healthy amount of selling from miners. This trend, when sustained, can prove to be bullish for the BTC price.<\/p>\n

Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin miner outflows over the past several months:<\/p>\n

As you can see in the above graph, the Bitcoin miner outflows seem to have shown spikes in recent weeks, just before the selloff.<\/p>\n
This would suggest that miners look to have played a role in the dump<\/a> recently, sending the price of the coin diving below the $42k level.<\/p>\n
A trend like this has been observed a few times in the past several months already, as the quant has marked in the chart.<\/p>\n

After around twenty days of holding strongly above the level, Bitcoin’s price<\/a> is now once again revisiting the $41k mark.<\/p>\n
At the time of writing, the coin’s price floats around $41.1k, down 11% in the last seven days. Over the past month, the crypto has gained 4% in value.<\/p>\n

Due to this sharp downtrend in the price of the coin as well as the wider market, crypto futures has collected a huge amount of liquidations today. In the last 24 hours, liquidations have amounted to more than $322 million, $175 million of which occurred in the past 4 hours alone.<\/p>\n
