The on-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant has discussed how the Bitcoin market has changed during the past year.<\/p>\n
In a new post<\/a> on X, CryptoQuant has broken down the changes that the cryptocurrency’s landscape has observed recently. The first would be that the US-based exchanges have been registering withdrawals, while the global platforms have seen growing holdings.<\/p>\n The relevant on-chain indicator here is the “exchange reserve<\/a>,” which keeps track of the total amount of Bitcoin stored inside the wallets of a centralized exchange or a group of exchanges.<\/p>\n First, here is a chart that shows the trend in this metric for the foreign platforms:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The above graph shows that the Bitcoin exchange reserves for Binance, Bitfinex, and OKX have increased during the past year. In total, the indicator’s value for these non-US platforms has increased by 10% in this period.<\/p>\n This increase would naturally suggest that these exchanges have seen net deposits in the last year. However, the exchange reserve for the US-based platforms paints a different picture.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n While the foreign exchanges have seen deposits, the platforms based in the US, such as Coinbase, Gemini, and Kraken, have observed declining reserves during the past year.<\/p>\n In general, the reserves of these platforms have dropped by at least 30%, which is a very significant value. The opposite trends being followed by the two groups of exchanges could imply a migration of coins between them, with investors increasingly preferring the non-US platforms.<\/p>\nLooks like the value of the metric for these platforms is steadily going up | Source: CryptoQuant on X<\/a><\/pre>\n
