CEX stablecoin inflows dropped to $70B daily in June.
This marks a $61B decline from the December 2024 peak.
BTC above $100K signals consolidation, not panic selling.
In December 2024, Bitcoin was trading between $98,000 and $100,000, and investor enthusiasm was at an all-time high. At that time, the average daily inflow of stablecoins—USDT and USDC—into centralized exchanges (CEXs) hit a record $131 billion.

What’s Next for Crypto Markets?
While the reduced inflows might seem concerning on the surface, they reflect a typical market rhythm. After explosive growth comes a period of adjustment. As long as Bitcoin holds key levels and investor confidence remains intact, the current phase could set the stage for future gains.
For now, all eyes will be on exchange data and price movements to gauge when the next wave of liquidity—and momentum—returns.
