On-chain data shows crypto exchange Gemini observed around 10k BTC in inflows yesterday as Bitcoin’s price declined below $30k.
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.
When the value of this metric surges up, it means exchanges are receiving a high amount of coins at the moment.
Such a trend can be bearish for the value of the coin as investors usually deposit their crypto to exchanges for selling purposes.

On the other hand, low values of the inflow can suggest that a healthy amount of selling may be going on in the market. Depending on the value of the outflows (the opposite indicator), this kind of trend can prove to be either neutral or bullish for the price of BTC.
Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin exchange inflows over the past couple of weeks:

It looks both Binance and Huobi saw around 1k to 1.2k BTC in inflows yesterday, while Gemini observed a huge spike of more than 10k BTC.
This would suggest that out of all the exchanges, Gemini saw the heaviest Bitcoin selling over the past twenty-four hours.
BTC Price
At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s price floats around $29.7k, up 5% in the last seven days. Over the past month, the crypto has lost 23% in value.
The below chart shows the trend in the price of the coin over the last five days.

Bitcoin looked to be gaining some footing over the $31k mark over the last few days for the first time in almost a month, but yesterday the price once again tumbled down.
At the moment, it’s unclear whether the selloff is over, or if the crypto will experience further decline in the near term.
