Since the first half of 2024, Bitcoin and Ethereum mining wallets have experienced a steady decline in their held supply, signaling a period of caution among miners.

However, the latest mild rebound in the market may suggest a reversal of this trend. A significant increase in the combined supplies held by mining wallets could be a key indicator that a new bull run is on the horizon.

In the past 24 hours, 112,000 $ETH—valued at approximately $257.6 million—were sent to cryptocurrency exchanges. This notable movement of Ethereum signals increased selling pressure, as large holders potentially look to capitalize on the recent price recovery.

Meanwhile, @coinbase’s newly launched cbBTC has reached a $100 million market cap on its first day of trading. This impressive milestone highlights the growing demand for tokenized Bitcoin on the Base and Ethereum networks. Notably, 43% of the cbBTC supply is held on Base, with the remaining 57% circulating on Ethereum.

Ethereum Spot ETFs Continues With Outflow Records 

On the institutional front, Ethereum spot ETFs have seen significant outflows. On September 12, the total net outflow from Ethereum spot ETFs was $20.1396 million, with Grayscale’s ETF ETHE accounting for the entirety of this movement. This single-day net outflow adds to ETHE’s historical net outflow, which now totals $2.714 billion. This ongoing trend could indicate a shift in investor sentiment towards Ethereum, as large-scale outflows from institutional products often suggest decreasing confidence or reallocation of funds.

As the market watches these developments unfold, the movement of funds from mining wallets and institutional products will likely play a crucial role in shaping the next phase of Bitcoin and Ethereum’s market trajectory.
