Key Takeaways
ETH’s exchange supply dynamics are a different world from BTC’s, precisely because Ethereum is home to the largest permissionless exchanges in the world. There has been virtually no net inflow of ETH to exchanges since mid-2020. We can see a burst of outflows in mid-2020, when DeFi summer began.
It’s important to note that despite coins leaving exchanges, liquidity is growing. For starters, the unit price of BTC and ETH have gone up so much since Jan. 2020 that you need far fewer coins to provide the same amount of dollar liquidity.
Secondly, a good amount of these outflows make their way to trading venues like Uniswap, which is basically a migration of liquidity from centralized to decentralized platforms. Even BTC makes its way to decentralized exchanges. 1% of BTC’s supply is wrapped on Ethereum, and Uniswap has over $180 million of wrapped BTC (WBTC) liquidity.
