Binance sees five straight days of $1.54–$1.78B stablecoin outflows; Bitcoin stalls near $78,400.

Bitcoin (BTC) is flat around $78,400 after a 3.5% move on Friday. Buying power on Binance faded as stablecoin netflows flipped to outflows.

From April 14–22, Binance logged daily stablecoin inflows of $548M to $1.14B. CryptoQuant QuickTake ties these inflows to BTC’s move from $74K to $78K.

Since April 28, the trend reversed. Five consecutive days of outflows hit $1.54–$1.78B per day. Source.

A similar sell-off last appeared on January 26. Outflows reached $3.2B while BTC traded near $89,500. CryptoQuant.

That episode was followed by a ~15% drop, then price stabilized around $76,000. NewsBTC.

“Stablecoin reserves built up, fueled a rally, then drained as the cycle exhausted itself,” writes Crazzyblockk on CryptoQuant.

Risk if inflows don’t return: downside pressure. Mitigation would be fresh stablecoin capital moving back onto exchanges, especially Binance. Source.
