Decoding Bitcoin inflows: A Closer Look at Exchange Dynamics and Investor Trends in 2023.
It is difficult to compare Bitcoin inflows to the exchanges in 2021-2022 with 2023 when examining spot and derivative volumes. Spot volumes are currently at historic lows, while derivative volumes have reached record highs relative to spot trading. The current ratio of spot volumes to derivatives is 0.06, signifying that spot volumes account for only 6%, with derivatives making up the remaining 94% of market volumes. In my opinion, it might be more effective to use an Exchange Inflow - Spent Output Value Bands chart here. Why? Read the post below. Exchange Inflow - Spent Output Value Bands' could be more effective in this context. This chart displays the distribution of all spent outputs that have flowed into exchange wallets based on their value. Each colored band represents the ratio of the total value of spent outputs that flowed into exchanges within the specified range. This indicator can help estimate the flow of capital into exchanges from both whale and retail holders. Analyzing $BTC inflows from whale addresses shows a downward trend compared to previous years. In contrast, receipts from retail investors are increasing.
