Ether supply on centralized exchanges hits nine-year low

Ether supply on centralized exchanges hits nine-year low
CoinDesk Analysis TeamCoinDesk Analysis TeamCoinDesk

The number of Ether (ETH) held in wallets tied to centralized exchanges has dropped to an over nine-year low of 8.97 million tokens, according to data tracked by CryptoRank and Santiment.

That's the lowest tally since November 2015.

The continued exodus of coins from centralized trading platforms may result in reduced availability of coins in the market, potentially leading to an upward price surge.

"Investors continue moving ETH to cold storage, reducing available liquidity. BTC saw a similar trend in January when exchange reserves hit a 7-year low, followed by a sharp price surge," CryptoRank said.
