Stablecoin Exchange Flow

Definition

Stablecoin exchange flow tracks the movement of stablecoins, which are cryptocurrencies pegged to a stable asset like the US dollar, onto and off centralized digital asset exchanges. This metric indicates the aggregate sentiment and potential trading intentions of market participants. Inflows often suggest an intent to purchase other cryptocurrencies, while outflows may signal profit-taking or a desire to hold stable value off-exchange. It serves as a key barometer for market liquidity and risk appetite.
