On-chain data shows the Bitcoin reserve of derivative exchanges has surged up recently as the price of the crypto has continued to crash down.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Derivatives Exchange Reserve Observes Sharp Uptrend<\/h2>\n

As explained by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post<\/a>, the crashing BTC price may be forcing whales and long-term holders to open short positions in order to hedge their portfolios.<\/p>\n

The “derivative exchange reserve<\/a>” is an indicator that measures the total amount of Bitcoin currently present on wallets of all derivative exchanges.<\/p>\n

When the value of this metric goes up, it means coins are entering into derivative exchanges right now. Such a trend may mean investors are opening leveraged positions at the moment, which can result in higher volatility in the value of the crypto.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, a downtrend in the indicator implies investors are withdrawing their coins from these exchanges currently.<\/p>\n

Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin derivative exchange reserve over the past year:<\/p>\n

As you can see in the above graph, the Bitcoin derivative exchange reserve had been heading down for quite a while, until recently when the indicator’s value once again started rising up.<\/p>\n

Recent data suggests that the crash in the coin’s price has pushed around 50% of the total BTC supply into\u00a0loss<\/a>. Based on this, many long-term holders and whales are also bound to be underwater right now.<\/p>\n

The quant believes that the uplift in the derivative reserve is because of these long-term holders and whales panicking about their portfolios losing value.<\/p>\n

These holders are looking to hedge their portfolios and reduce risk by opening short positions on derivative exchanges.<\/p>\n

The analyst points out, however, that such aggressive shorting would create even more selling pressure, causing the price to see further drawdown.<\/p>\n
