Quick Take

Substantial outflows of Bitcoin from exchanges have been a hallmark trend on Coinbase since March 2020. Notably, Coinbase, once the leading Bitcoin holder of exchanges, has experienced a significant decrease in its Bitcoin reserves. In the wake of colossal outflows on Feb. 19 and March 1, each equalling roughly $1 billion, Coinbase is set to become the third-largest Bitcoin holding exchange, according to Glassnode.

Providing a snapshot of this change, Glassnode data indicates a reduction of approximately 633,000 Bitcoin since March 2020. While Coinbase previously held just over a million Bitcoin, it now reportedly maintains a reserve of around 385,000 BTC.

CoinGlass reports Coinbase’s Bitcoin holdings at approximately 373,000, ranking it third. CoinGlass notes Bitfinex as holding the second-largest amount, around 395,000 BTC. Binance leads in Bitcoin holdings, with a discrepancy in reports between Glassnode and CoinGlass, indicating a range between 640,000 and 540,000 BTC, amounting to a difference of about 100,000 BTC.
