Ethereum, Bancor, and Kyber Network all Continue to Quietly See Their Supplies Moving Off Exchanges 27-02-21, 09:09


Though the ratio of a crypto asset's supply on exchanges may not seem to have an immediate impact on prices, the long-term correlations between coins moving away from exchanges while prices move up, is quite evident.


Let's take a look at three ERC-20 assets that are showing this pattern as a volatile week in crypto full of price retracements is coming to an end:



Ethereum

Crypto's #2 market cap asset has seen quite the pullback since its retrace from above $2k last week. However, ETH's supply isn't budging away from offline wallets.



Bancor

Bancor's supply moving away from exchanges had a lot to do with its ability to hit a 2-year high $6.17 last week. BNT supply is now 71.7% below its one-year average.



Kyber Network

KNC's supply has jumped to 39.2% after being as low as 36.1% on January 31st. On the long-term scale, the amount of tokens is still 17% lower than its one-year average.

What's the Deal With Ballooning Bancor? 18-02-21, 20:41

Bancor has been flying up the altcoin ranks, with a +49% return the past 24 hours, and +98% the past week. Here are are some metrics that led to BNT being able to peak at $6.17 today:




Whale Address Numbers Rising


The amount of addresses with at least 100,000 BNT tokens was sitting at 61. It's climbed to 87 now, and was already scaling up prior to the price boom.




Dormant BNT Tokens Moving


Dormant tokens have been moving away from long-sitting addresses aggressively for 3 months. This dip in the average time dollars have been invested is a fantastic foreshadower for price rises.




Exchange Supply Dropping


Bancor supply began rapidly moving off of exchanges in mid-November (25% then, 15% now), and the inverse price correlation has been apparent.




Address Activity & Volume Exploding


Active addresses, volume, and social volume have all skyrocketed. Just note that when this last happened in mid-December, a price correction subsequently took place.
