The data from Glassnode suggested that the amount of Bitcoin on exchanges has dropped to its lowest in three years, which suggests that investors are actively accumulating the asset. The analytic data platform reported that the Bitcoin balance on exchanges reached 2.46 million BTC in late October from 2.47 million BTC in Q2 2021. History shows that whenever bitcoin has a good run, its balance on exchanges declines and tends to rise when investors load up their bitcoin on exchanges, leading to an increased sell-off period.
