Bitcoin Exchange Inflows Spike Up As BTC Price Falls Down
As pointed out by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post, selling on exchanges like Gemini, Binance, and Huobi looks to have been behind the latest drop in the crypto’s price.
The “exchange inflow” is an indicator that measures the total amount of Bitcoin moving into wallets of all exchanges.

Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin exchange inflows over the past couple of weeks:
