High volumes of Bitcoin on the move from exchanges
Whale alert also tracked another huge transaction involving 6,018 BTC from Coinbase to an unknown wallet on April 21. The whales withdrew a whopping 6,018 and 1,813 BTC combined.
Last week, the amount of BTC held on exchanges plummeted by 20,000 BTC to 2,449,785 BTC. The balance has been the lowest held in the exchanges since August 2018.
The high outflow of bitcoin from the exchanges means a potential opportunity for a bitcoin rally.

The bitcoin market conditions are tightly correlated to global market conditions and traditional assets like equities and bonds. But the present market conditions don’t seem to affect the investors who acquired bitcoin at $40k and above, as the majority of them are long-term holders.
But as compared to the 2018 and 2020 bear markets, the current market profitability is much better this year. At the time of writing, bitcoin was trading at $39,405.86.
