Declining Bitcoin balance on cryptocurrency exchanges has become a market-wide trend after the dramatic collapse of FTX.
Bitcoin supply begins to decline
The fall of Sam Bankman-Fried’s $32 billion crypto empire highlighted the importance of self-control for users. In fact, investors have already tended to hold their assets themselves rather than entrusting their hard-earned money to a third-party platform.
According to the latest data compiled by crypto analytics firm Santiment, Bitcoin’s supply on centralized crypto exchanges has dropped from 11.85% to 6.65% over the past year. The flagship crypto asset’s debut has been seen across the top six platforms, including Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, KuCoin, and Bitstamp.
Kraken took the biggest hit as it saw a 59% reduction in its BTC balance, followed by Coinbase (33%), Bitfinex and KuCoin (32%), Binance (25%), and Bitstamp (23%). This trend marks a historic decline in the overall BTC supply and illustrates the growing interest in self-custody. Basically, the less Bitcoin there are on exchanges, the more investors see it as a long-term investment. As expected, it also means there is less immediate selling pressure.
Earlier this year, Bitcoin core developer Like Dashjr lost millions in an exploit after attackers allegedly managed to gain access to the PGP key, raising the risks associated with self-custody. Binance recently announced Mirror, a new feature based on Binance Custody, to enable institutional players to invest and trade using cold storage.
