Exchange Outflow Signal

Definition

An exchange outflow signal occurs when a significant quantity of cryptocurrency is moved from a centralized exchange to external wallets. This movement often indicates that investors are transferring assets for long-term holding, staking, or to self-custody solutions, rather than preparing for immediate sale. A sustained increase in outflows can suggest reduced selling pressure and potentially a bullish sentiment among holders. Analysts monitor these signals as a metric for assessing investor confidence and market supply dynamics.
