Whales Deepen the Supply Squeeze

⚫Analysts at XWIN Research report a continued decline in bitcoin reserves on Binance as whale wallets move coins into cold storage, even as BTC trades above $93,000. These outflows reduce potential sell-side pressure and signal investor confidence in the ongoing bullish trend, contributing to a tightening supply dynamic.

⚫The drop in exchange balances is reinforced by rising capital inflows into spot bitcoin ETFs from BlackRock, Fidelity, and Vanguard, which are accumulating BTC for long-term custody. XWIN believes these trends could support further price appreciation heading into early next year. Meanwhile, CryptoQuant notes that centralized-exchange trading volumes have decreased — a sign that activity is shifting toward long-term holding and institutional investment products.
