Moreno hinted at the pre-crash market conditions when Binance’s reserve value was “growing” by roughly $14 billion due to inflated asset prices.
The CryptoQuant analyst’s post showed that Ethereum-based USDT reached an all-time high of $38.2 billion on Binance.
Funds Flowing into Binance
Fear, doubt, and uncertainty keep dominating the crypto due to bearish sentiment ahead of macro events like the new set of US tariffs on China.
Investors have been depositing their crypto assets into Binance, preparing for the forthcoming market movements. The leading exchange saw a net inflow of $3.6 billion over the past 24 hours, according to data from DefiLlama.
It’s important to note that exchange inflows do not necessarily mean an absolute selloff. They could also hint at stablecoin inflows for potential buying opportunities, as Bitcoin and the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem have been wandering in the red zone.
For instance, on Oct. 12, a $1.4 billion USDT inflow into Binance triggered a short-term market-wide recovery right after a record $19.4 billion liquidation event between Oct. 10 and 11.
Currently, CoinGlass data shows a 226.8 million USDT and a 417.5 million USDC net inflow into Binance over the past day.
The movement could potentially increase the bullish sentiment, which could trigger a buying spree unless another macro event hits the financial markets.
