Recently, there has been a significant change in Bitcoin holdings across exchanges—over the past few days, data from major platforms shows that funds are primarily flowing out.

As of 5:34 PM on the 16th, the total Bitcoin holdings across mainstream exchanges are approximately 2.46 million coins. The net outflow for the day was 1,543 coins, and over the past week, a total of 23,290 coins have been withdrawn. This month, the total outflow has reached 28,791 coins. In simple terms, holders are moving their coins off the exchanges.

The specific situation varies among different platforms. A leading compliant platform currently manages the largest amount of Bitcoin, about 792,189 coins, but they also experienced a daily outflow of 912.59 coins, with a weekly outflow of 5,270.83 coins. Another major exchange holds 637,466 coins, with the highest weekly outflow of 9,780.79 coins and a daily outflow of 1,313.42 coins. An older platform is managing 408,133 coins, with a weekly outflow of 2,856.41 coins.

Interestingly, although the overall trend is outflow, not all platforms are losing coins. One exchange experienced a slight net inflow of 1,313 coins for the day, another platform saw an inflow of 833 coins, and even one exchange had an inflow of 89 coins. In comparison, a certain derivatives platform experienced the largest daily net outflow, reaching 1,137 coins.

What does this wave of net outflows indicate? What are market participants doing? The data speaks for itself.

All are being pulled out, is this bottom-fishing or running away...

The tide of withdrawals has arrived, it seems everyone doesn't want to be stuck on exchanges anymore, smart move. Large outflows are speaking volumes; holders are voting. This signal is quite interesting. Wait, some platforms still have inflows? Are they trying to bottom fish or playing some tricks? Nearly 30,000 coins have been withdrawn in a month, which amounts to billions... The crypto community's sentiment is scattered. It feels like this is paving the way for a big rally later, with cold wallets accumulating chips. No, wait, the most net outflows are on contract platforms? Could someone be front-running? This situation is a bit dangerous. With such fierce outflow data, could a major event be coming? Withdrawing coins is the best way to hedge risks; smart people are running. Interesting, overall withdrawals are happening but some still dare to buy in; this is the difference between retail investors and sharks.

The money is flowing out... Some are hoarding, some are running, this is a game of strategy. --- Nearly 30,000 coins flowed out this month? Wake up... Is this about something going wrong or just accumulation? --- Major players are quietly moving funds to cold wallets, the meaning is very clear. --- The platform with the most outflow... Are they trying to crash the market or wash their holdings... --- Outflow itself isn't scary, what's scary is where the funds are going. --- Uh... I'm sleepy... Feels like a transfer of chips, I'll think more about it late at night. --- Not all platforms losing funds are interesting; by comparing, you can see who is eating up the chips. --- Holders withdrawing coins have only two possibilities: either they really don't believe in it or they are hoarding... I bet on the latter. --- 28791 coins flowed out in a month... This rate looks suspiciously steady. --- Wait... What are the platforms with net inflow trying to do, accumulating at low prices?

Big players are running, retail investors are still sleepwalking.
