It’s time to take stock in the cryptosphere, and Binance, the number one exchange, is in the spotlight. Analysts are watching a significant drop in Bitcoin (BTC) reserves on the platform, which have fallen to their lowest level since January. This recurring phenomenon, which is often accompanied by a return to self-care, could be a prelude to the coming historic bull run for the flagship cryptocurrency. Dive into the signals of this hot market.
Binance Bitcoin Reserves Freefall
Bitcoin stocks on Binance have recently dropped below the 570,000 BTC marka level not seen since January, breaking all records in November. An observation not lost on analysts such as CryptoQuant’s Darkfost, who recalls:
” When the draw intensifies, it is often a sign of positive momentum in the market. »

In fact, this scenario already happened last January, just before that 90% bitcoin rally two months later.
The numbers speak for themselves:
- Current reserves: less than 570,000 BTC, down from 586,000 in November;
- January 2024: similar level before the explosion at $73,679;
- December 2024: record high of $108,300, then dip below $100,000.
These moves reflect increased investor confidence in the long-term potential of bitcoinwhich leaves the platform to join the cold wallets. So a new bull episode in sight? If history repeats itself, BTC may reach unprecedented highs in the coming months.
Cryptocurrency Traders: Between Caution and Expectation
While investors move their assets, crypto traders remain divided. Bitcoin dominance is close to 58.4%, without exceeding the symbolic threshold of 60%. This ceiling seems to announce possibly diversifying into other digital assets. But for some experts, this inertia is short-lived.

Ryan Lee, an analyst at Bitget Research, predicts resumption of activity after the holidayswith BTC hovering between $94,000 and $105,000 this week. He notes that the usual illiquidity of the markets during the holiday season is only a temporary setback.
Others predict that the 60% mark could ultimately revive bitcoin’s appeal and boost the entire crypto sector.
In short, between wary traders and confident investors, BTC continues to ride a rollercoaster while strengthening its position as a major asset.
Thus, at the beginning of November, Binance and Coinbase saw a drop in their Bitcoin reserves, which put the market under pressure. The dynamics that appeared already at the beginning of 2024, before the resounding rally. Whether history will repeat itself for the cryptocurrency flagship remains to be seen.
