Taha highlighted the rate of vinance exchange inflow in STHS. This shows the percentage of inbound transactions to Binance from entities that have hadling within six months.
The ratio has recently exceeded 0.4, indicating that Taha “often coincides with the local bottom.”
“The latest spikes above 0.4 suggest that retail participants may have started stacking and depositing Bitcoin Holdings.
“STH cohorts – which normally hold BTC below 155 days – tend to sell during the upward trend, and the current ratio enhances this behavior.”
Last week’s all-time high prompted a massive awakening of trading activity across crypto exchanges.
“Among all venues, Binance recorded the largest daily increase in spot trading volumes, both the previous day and the next day, with the new highs, thus gaining additional market share on the day after the peak of July 18th.”
“Crypto.com, Coinbase, Bybit and OKX also showed relatively high spot trading volumes.”
