Ethereum Supply Shock Grows As Reserves Decrease, ETH 2.0 Contract Increases

The Ethereum supply shock has been growing as exchange reserves continue to decrease and value staked in ETH 2.0 contract rises. Ethereum Supply Shock: Exchange Reserves Go On Decreasing While ETH 2.0 Staking Contract Grows In Value As pointed out by a CryptoQuant post, ETH exchange reserves have been decreasing while the coins locked in the staking contract have been rising. The “all exchanges reserve” is an Ethereum indicator that highlights the total number of coins stored in wallets of all exchanges. When the value of this metric goes up, it means there is an increase in the supply of ETH on exchanges. Such a trend may show that there is a selling pressure in the market as investors are sending these coins to exchanges for withdrawing to fiat or altcoin purchasing. A decrease, on the other hand, would imply the supply of ETH is going down as investors take their crypto off exchanges for hodling or selling through OTC deals. This behavior may show that buyers feel bullish on the coin’s future.
