Recently, there has been a remarkable increase in the tendency of altcoin investors to move towards exchanges. As of 2025, the amount of altcoins sent to exchanges has reached an all-time high. According to CryptoQuant data, the number of transactions in which investors transfer their altcoins to exchanges has hit its highest level since the beginning of the year. Analyst Julio Moreno states that this increase signifies "a new yearly peak in transfers to exchanges."
Historically, such sudden increases coincide with periods of increased selling pressure in the markets. The sharp fluctuations in the altcoin market in the second half of 2025 are prompting investors to reassess their positions. According to CryptoQuant’s chart, exchanges such as Binance, Coinbase, and Bybit are the platforms with the highest share in altcoin transfers.
Particularly, the sharp increases observed in October indicate that the market has re-entered a sell-weighted trend, highlighting that investors' inclination for short-term profit-taking is strengthening. There has been a notable increase in altcoin transactions sent to exchanges, especially on Binance and Coinbase. The trading volume on Binance has nearly doubled since the calm period during the summer, starting in October. Additionally, exchanges based in Asia, such as Bybit and OKX, have also registered visible increases in volumes.
Experts suggest that this data supports investors' tendency to avoid risk, indicating that short-term profit-taking could accelerate. However, some analysts emphasize that such periods could also present accumulation opportunities for long-term investors. Investors should carefully monitor current market dynamics and formulate their strategies accordingly.
