Are miners sending Bitcoin to exchanges, waiting for higher prices?

Quick Take

  • Miners are continuing to transfer Bitcoin to exchanges.
  • As CryptoSlate identified last week, we saw the largest one-day Bitcoin transfer from miners to exchange in two years.
  • However, 2,600 Bitcoin were sent to exchanges on Saturday, surpassing last week’s transfer.
  • A potential hypothesis could be that miners are preparing for higher Bitcoin prices to sell their Bitcoin, as the transfer volume does not mean they have sold.
  • Poolin appears to be responsible for both transfers to Binance, totaling around 4,685 Bitcoin (roughly $128 million at current values) sent to the exchange.
