What are exchange reserves?

The total balance held on exchanges, and why a falling reserve is often read as a bullish backdrop.

Exchange reserves are the total amount of an asset held in exchange wallets. It is the running balance that inflows and outflows add up to over time.

Falling reserves

A steady decline means more coins are leaving exchanges than arriving, which points to accumulation and less immediately available supply to sell.

A climbing balance means coins are flowing in, which can mean more supply is being positioned to sell. Context and pace matter.

We track stablecoin and asset reserves on curated exchanges. Read the trend, not a single day, as a slow-moving measure of available supply.
