Former CEO Changpeng Zhao cannot be Binance’s beneficiary if it wants to keep its French license.
Bitcoin briefly shot over $70,000 yesterday before plunging below $69,000 to spot rates. While there are hints of weakness, one analyst on X notes that inflow to exchanges like Binance and OKX is subdued, meaning that users are not keen to sell despite prices tanking and failing to break $72,000. Bitcoin Inflow To Exchanges Remain Low The analyst notes that exchange inflows are low at spot rates. As of May 28, exchanges received just 25.9K BTC daily. From historical exchange inflow data from CryptoQuant, the current inflow rate is at the 2016 level. There was a sharp pick-up in momentum after 2016, but the inflow to exchanges has been shrinking since the beginning of the year. It should be noted that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved nine spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) around this time.

While the average inflow to exchanges is at 2016 levels, there might be changes in the coming months. On May 28, Mt. Gox, the defunct crypto exchange hacked in 2014, moved over $9.4 billion of BTC, data from Token Unlocks show. This unexpected transfer sparked market concerns. Currently, the intention remains unknown. Still, the implications could be dire if they decide to liquidate on exchanges. Even with this possibility, the analyst argued that BTC’s low average exchange inflow to exchanges would be a timely cushion. Should Mt.Gox creditors decide to sell, the analyst believes the market will easily absorb this sell-off despite increased initial volatility. What this means is that the price impact will be minimal.

Chainlink (LINK) has recently been identified as a significant influencer within the altcoin sector. Noted by crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe, LINK’s market movements are increasingly seen as a barometer for the broader altcoin ecosystem. This observation places Chainlink at the center of potential market trends, suggesting that its performance could presage movements across other cryptocurrencies. Related Reading: While Ethereum Shines, Top Analyst Reveals His Best ‘Under-Radar’ Altcoin Chainlink $16 Mark: Catalyst for Altcoin Market Optimism Van de Poppe’s analysis, shared on social media platform X, underscores the importance of Chainlink’s price stability around the $16 mark. Maintaining this level is crucial for sustaining LINK’s upward trajectory towards yearly highs. This sentiment reflects broader market optimism surrounding Chainlink, particularly as it navigates pivotal price points. Strong momentum for #Chainlink. Apparently, Chainlink is an indicator for the altcoins. If Chainlink does well, then I expect the altcoins to continue moving. As long as $16 holds, we’ll see a continuation on Chainlink towards the yearly highs. pic.twitter.com/nOl1r3gicW — Michaël van de Poppe (@CryptoMichNL) May 28, 2024 Over the past week, Chainlink has shown robust performance, registering a near 10% increase and stabilizing above the critical $16 threshold. Current trading prices are around $18.09. This uptrend coincides with a general bullish sentiment across the altcoin market, highlighted by the overall market cap for altcoins increasing from $930 billion earlier in the month to $1.156 trillion. This positive trend in the altcoin market is further exemplified by the major cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, BNB, and XRP, which, despite minor retracements, continue to show strong market potential. For instance, while these top altcoins have seen slight declines in the past 24 hours, Solana has experienced a 2.7% increase, which could indicate selective investor confidence in specific altcoins. Analysis and Predictive Insights So far, the altcoin market cap shows a recent breach and conversion of major resistance into support, marking a brewing upsurge in the altcoin market.
