    Bitcoin Exchange Balances Plunge as Long-Term Holders Help Drive Price to $98,000

    Bitcoin balances on crypto exchanges have reached historic lows, as on-chain data points to a rapid depletion of available inventory.  A recent note from 10X Research on Sunday highlighted the trend, underscored by a sharp drop in the amount of Bitcoin available to buy. It contrasts sharply with trends observed in late summer when a sudden inflow temporarily replenished exchange reserves, according to the report. This time, however, no such inventory boost has occurred, exacerbating the supply c...

    Bitcoin Dips to $93,000 With $400 Million in Longs Rekt. Where to From Here?

    Bitcoin witnessed a sharp sell-off on Monday, with the asset’s single-day performance giving up more than half of the gains made last week. The world’s largest crypto fell 4.8% on the day to just above $93,000, with Monday’s drop totaling more than $4,800. For context, that’s more than 55% of last week’s $8,100 runup. Still, analysts say the move is likely part of traders rebalancing their positions as they look to the end of the year, particularly in late December, which has proven to be a favo...
