So if the value of the indicator becomes high, we can tell that whales are sending large amounts to exchanges as they now make up for a bigger part of the total inflows. Such a trend can prove to be bearish for the price of Bitcoin as it may show that whale dumping is going on currently. On the other hand, if the ratio goes down, it means a healthier balance is returning the market as whales control a lesser part of the exchange transactions.
