Exchange supply hits record low amid weak sentiment

ETH exchange balances fell to 8.84% of total supply, the lowest level on record. The metric compares to Bitcoin’s 14.8% exchange balance, suggesting tighter ETH supply conditions.

“ETH keeps getting pulled into places that don’t sell: staking, restaking, L2 activity, DA layers, collateral loops, long term custody,” Milk Road posted on X. The X accounted noted that while sentiment feels heavy, supply dynamics don’t change based on market mood.

“ETH supply is tightening in the background while the market decides its next move. When that gap closes, price follows,” the post stated.
