inflows reached about $1 billion on September 16, marking the largest single-day BTC inflow of the week.

Average whale deposits have jumped to roughly $214,000, up sharply from $63,000 in July, underscoring growing institutional engagement.

Popular crypto analyst Ali Martinez noted on X that altcoin deposits on Binance are also accelerating, with 25,000 recorded versus just 6,000 on Coinbase. The overall altcoin address activity has nearly doubled since early September.

Altcoin Season Ahead?

This exchange reserve upswing coincides with seasonal trends that have historically favored crypto bulls. Fourth quarters have often delivered double-digit gains for both Bitcoin and major altcoins.

With less than two weeks left in September, many traders are positioning for a potentially strong finish to the year.

Crypto analyst 0xNobler recently pointed out on X that September has often marked the beginning of strong altcoin rallies.

He predicts that many alternative cryptocurrencies could climb as much as 175x in the coming months, highlighting HYPE
