Rezervne zaloge bitcoina na borzah so se zmanjšale na raven iz leta 2019: Ali se bliža pomanjkanje bitcoina?

[라온]

Bitcoin exchange reserves drop to their lowest levels in nearly six years, and the shift could quietly reshape the market’s supply dynamics. Recent on-chain data indicates that the amount of BTC held on centralized exchanges has fallen back to levels last seen in 2019, highlighting a significant structural change in how investors are choosing to hold the asset.

While price volatility often dominates market headlines, deeper indicators such as exchange reserves can reveal important changes in supply and liquidity. With institutional demand rising and more investors opting for self-custody, the pool of Bitcoin available for active trading may be shrinking. This development has now sparked a key question across the crypto market: could declining exchange reserves become the next bullish catalyst for Bitcoin price?

Bitcoin Exchange Reserves Drop to Multi-Year Lows

According to on-chain data, Bitcoin exchange reserves have declined to roughly 2.7 million BTC, marking the lowest level since 2019. The trend has been unfolding gradually over several years but accelerated significantly following the collapse of centralized platforms during the 2022 market crisis. After the FTX collapse, investors rushed to withdraw funds from exchanges and move their Bitcoin into private wallets. In November 2022 alone, more than 325,000 BTC left exchange reserves, marking one of the largest single-month outflows in Bitcoin’s history.
