Exchange In-House Flow (Total) measures the total amount of coins moved between wallets belonging to the same exchange, capturing internal transfers that do not represent actual deposits or withdrawals by external market participants.
Monitoring in-house flow is essential for accurately interpreting other exchange flow metrics. Large internal transfers can inflate raw inflow and outflow figures, creating misleading signals about sell-side pressure or accumulation if not accounted for. A spike in in-house flow without a corresponding change in net reserve or external inflows typically indicates internal wallet management - such as consolidation, cold storage rebalancing, or liquidity redistribution - rather than meaningful market activity.
Tracking this metric alongside total inflow and outflow provides a cleaner picture of genuine market participant behavior versus exchange-side operational movements.
