The number of bitcoins available on exchanges is rapidly decreasing, which could be a harbinger of an imminent supply shortage and a price increase. Current data shows that only 14% of the total BTC is on trading platforms, the lowest figure since 2017.

Just in June, according to Glassnode, around 290,000 BTC were withdrawn from exchanges, representing a decline of 9.4%. This trend clearly points to long-term holding. The result: an increasingly dry market, where even a moderate increase in demand can lead to upward price pressure.
