CryptoQuant: Daily Bitcoin Inflows to Exchanges Near 50,000 BTC, Break Below $60,000 Could Lead to Drop to $53,000

Odaily reported that CryptoQuant has indicated that the amount of Bitcoin deposited into centralized exchanges last week rose to nearly 50,000 BTC per day, marking the fourth time this year it has reached that level. The report states that this increase coincides with Bitcoin testing the key support level of $60,000. If it breaks below this level, Bitcoin could move toward the realized price of $53,000. During the same period, the average Bitcoin deposit size roughly doubled from 1 BTC to 2 BTC, with CryptoQuant attributing this growth to whales and institutions rather than retail investors. Ethereum's daily inflow peaked at 1.25 million ETH, and the number of deposit transactions for other altcoins also rose to over 45,000 per day. Bitcoin is up 3.5% this week, trading at $62,886, more than 50% below its all-time high of $126,080 from October; Ethereum is up nearly 12% this week, trading at $1,787, approximately 64% below its all-time high of $4,946.
