Bitcoin’s June correction is now being accompanied by a sharp rise in whale 
deposits to Binance, according to CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost, reviving a 
pattern last seen during the market’s February stress event. The data suggests 
that large holders are moving more BTC back onto the exchange as the selloff 
deepens, potentially adding near-term supply pressure. Darkfost said Bitcoin 
is down 14% in June, with the decline accelerating over the past several days. 
That move has pushed some investors into a more defensive posture, 
particularly large entities moving sizable amounts of BTC. In the analyst’s 
framework, whales are defined as entities executing transactions above 100 
BTC, or more than $6 million at current prices. The most visible change has 
occurred on Binance. According to the post, whale inflows to the exchange 
reached approximately 8,200 BTC on June 2, followed by more than 6,400 BTC on 
June 4. More importantly, the trend has also shifted on a monthly basis: 
average whale inflows on Binance have risen from roughly 1,200 BTC since mid- 
April to more than 2,800 BTC today, meaning the figure has more than doubled 
in a matter of weeks. “On Binance, BTC inflows from whales have accelerated 
sharply,” Darkfost wrote, pointing to the June 2 and June 4 peaks. “On a 
longer-term basis, the monthly average of whale inflows on Binance has moved 
from approximately 1,200 BTC since mid-April to over 2,800 BTC today, more 
than doubling within a matter of weeks.” Bitcoin Whale Deposits Point To 
Rising Sell-Side Risk Exchange inflows do not mechanically prove that coins 
have already been sold. However, large transfers to trading venues are 
commonly watched as a proxy for potential sell-side intent, especially when 
they occur during a fast correction rather than during a period of 
accumulation or sideways consolidation. Related Reading: Bitcoin’s Most 
Important Metric Flashes Warning As Bulls Fight To Hold $60K Darkfost framed 
the current increase in that context. “This dynamic suggests that the ongoing 
correction is pushing some whales to move their BTC back onto the exchange, 
presumably with the intention of selling,” the analyst wrote. “This behavior 
looks more like emotional risk management than a deliberate strategic 
decision.” That distinction matters for market interpretation. A strategic 
rebalance usually implies pre-planned execution, portfolio rotation, or a 
controlled reduction in exposure. Panic-driven exchange inflows, by contrast, 
tend to appear after price damage has already forced large holders to reassess 
risk. They may worsen near-term pressure, but they can also emerge late in a 
corrective sequence. Related Reading: Bitcoin’s Great Wealth Transfer May Fuel 
Next Rally, Says CryptoQuant CEO Bitcoin was trading near $62,533 at the time 
of writing, after an intraday low of $61,407 and high of $64,380. That puts 
the market close to the levels referenced in Darkfost’s comparison with 
February, when whale inflow activity on Binance last reached a similar 
intensity during Bitcoin’s drop to $60,000. February Comparison Raises The Key 
Question The February reference is the central point of the analysis. Darkfost 
noted that the last comparable surge in Binance whale inflows came as Bitcoin 
fell below $60,000 earlier this year. In that case, the elevated inflows 
reflected stress after a sharp drawdown rather than an early warning signal 
ahead of the full move. “For reference, the last time whale inflow activity on 
Binance reached such levels was during Bitcoin’s drop below $60,000 in early 
February,” the analyst wrote. “This development introduces additional selling 
pressure in the short term. That said, panic-driven moves of this kind tend to 
arrive well after the fact, as was the case in February.” At press time, BTC 
traded at $62,332. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from
