Key Notes
- Binance saw massive outflows within the first week of July.
- Ethereum whales are optimistic, with a $500 million buying spree.
- Bitcoin and Ethereum are still in the consolidation zone.
Investors see an accumulation opportunity while the cryptocurrency market hovers in a low-volatility range.
According to data provided by DefiLlama, Binance, one of the top crypto exchanges by daily trading volume, saw a net outflow of $1.22 billion over the past week.
Most of the outflows, worth $932 million, surfaced in the last 24 hours alone.
OKX, a leading crypto exchange, also recorded a net outflow of $340 million in the past seven days.
Historically, outflows from centralized exchanges, especially Binance, which has high liquidity for traders aiming to cash out, have shown long-term accumulation and investors’ optimism for a potential bull run.

treasury firm Metaplanet bought 2,205 BTC, worth nearly $240 million, on July 7.
The US-based spot BTC exchange-traded funds added to the optimism with a net inflow of $216.5 million on July 7.
The strong whale accumulation and CEX outflows, combined with the institutional purchase, will likely trigger another bull run for the crypto market.
However, it’s important to note that the macroeconomic situation is still not clear. For instance, a bearish US Consumer Price Index announcement, scheduled for July 15, could trigger fear and vice versa.
