The supply of Bitcoin on exchanges has plummeted to its lowest level since December 2021, with only around 942,000 coins available.
In contrast, Ethereum and Tether are seeing increased inflows. Historically, the limited supply of Bitcoin available for sale reduces the overall drop-off risk for the entire cryptocurrency market.

– Mt. Gox Trustee: 141,000 BTC
– US Government: 207,000 BTC
– All Exchanges: 2.3 million BTC
– Miners (excluding Patoshi): 706,000 BTC.

Since the last Bitcoin halving, mining costs have surged, now averaging around $77,000 per BTC. This increase in expenses has led to significant capitulation among Bitcoin miners over the past month.
