Bitcoin Consolidates Near $114K as ETF Flows Return and Liquidity Tightens

Renewed spot ETF inflows have supported Bitcoin despite a pullback under macroeconomic pressure coupled with collapsing exchange liquidity.

Overview

  • Bitcoin dipped below $113,000 over the weekend before stabilizing around $114,400 on modest spot ETF flow data.
  • US spot Bitcoin ETFs posted a $404 million net outflow last week after July’s record $12.8 billion inflow, with Bitwise reporting a $18.7 million net inflow on Monday.
  • On-chain liquidity on major exchanges fell to levels representing roughly three months of supply, leaving the order book vulnerable to price swings.
  • Average netflows from centralized exchanges have been negative since February 2024, signaling sustained off-exchange accumulation by long-term holders.
  • Over 56 million whale-level Bitcoin transactions have taken place on Binance, underscoring its dominance in large-scale trading.
