On-chain data shows around 800k ETH has exited wallets of the crypto exchange Gemini, a sign that could prove to be bullish for Ethereum.
Crypto Exchange Gemini Observes outflows Of 800k ETHAs pointed out by an analyst in a CryptoQuant post, the Ethereum exchange reserve has plunged down to lows not seen since 2018.
The “all exchanges reserve” is an indicator that measures the total amount of Ethereum currently stored on wallets of all centralized exchanges.
When the value of this metric goes down, it means the number of coins on exchanges are going down. Such a trend, when prolonged, can be a sign of accumulation from investors, and hence can be bullish for the price of the crypto.

On the other hand, an increase in the reserve implies users are depositing their coins right now. Since investors usually transfer to exchanges for selling purposes, this kind of trend can have bearish consequences for ETH.
Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Ethereum all exchanges reserve over the last couple of months:

The chart also includes data for the “netflow,” which tells us about the amount of ETH entering or exiting exchange wallets (or more simply, it measures the changes in the exchange reserve). Its value is calculated by taking the difference between the inflows and the outflows.

This indicator has shown a huge negative spike recently, a trend which makes sense given the exchange reserve has plunged down.
The quant notes that these withdrawals took place on the crypto exchange Gemini and amounted to around 800k ETH.
Gemini is popularly known to be used by whales. In the past, transfers to and from the exchange have usually had a noticeable impact on the market.
As such, such a large number of coins exiting from the exchange can mean Ethereum’s near term outlook might be bullish.
ETH PriceAt the time of writing, Ethereum’s price floats around $1.6k, up 13% in the last seven days. Over the past month, the crypto has gained 45% in value.
