Exchanges Add 4,767 BTC in Daily Net Inflows as Monthly Flows Stay Negative

Major cryptocurrency exchanges recorded net inflows of approximately 4,767 BTC over the past day, pushing total exchange-held balances to roughly 2,603,289 BTC as of November 12, according to on-chain flow data. The daily accumulation contrasts with a negative monthly picture: exchanges bled 13,299 BTC in net outflows over the past thirty days.

The divergence between short-term inflows and monthly withdrawals frames the current positioning question for market practitioners. What does this change for traders and desks watching custody patterns? In short, coins are returning to exchange addresses on a daily and weekly horizon — 4,767 BTC and 9,297 BTC in net inflows respectively — while the longer monthly window still points to net coin leaving exchanges, a pattern historically associated with accumulation into self-custody rather than imminent sell-side pressure.

Which exchanges gained and which lost?

Coinbase Pro held the largest balance of any venue at 869,332 BTC, but it recorded net outflows of 1,036 BTC over the day and 8,281 BTC over the week. Binance ranked second by balance with 681,119 BTC and absorbed the heaviest inflows: 5,740 BTC daily and 11,630 BTC weekly. Bitfinex ranked third at 429,867 BTC, adding 125 BTC over the day and 1,125 BTC over the week.

The daily flow ranking was mixed across venues:

• Largest daily net inflows: Binance (5,740 BTC), Gate (737 BTC), Gemini (348 BTC)
• Largest daily net outflows: Coinbase Pro (1,036 BTC), OKX (737 BTC), Kraken (591 BTC)

Binance's weekly intake of 11,630 BTC exceeds the total weekly net inflow across all tracked exchanges, meaning the aggregate figure would be negative without the venue's contribution. For liquidity providers, that concentration matters: order-book depth is consolidating where the coins are landing.

How did regional trading sessions shift?

On November 11, trading volume reached approximately $477 million in the Asian session, $1.09 billion in the European session and $534 million in the US session, according to session-level volume records. Compared with November 10 — when Asia printed roughly $239 million, Europe $2.39 billion and the US $179 million — the shifts were sharp in both directions.

Asian session volume rose about 99%, effectively doubling day over day. US session volume increased about 199%, roughly tripling. European session volume fell about 54%, yet Europe still retained the largest regional share at $1.09 billion.

The single-day swings warrant caution against over-reading. A 54% drop in European volume from an elevated $2.39 billion base still leaves the region ahead of both Asian and US sessions in absolute terms. The pattern nonetheless signals an active rotation of execution activity toward Asian and US trading hours, relevant for desks calibrating execution windows and staffing around peak liquidity.

What comes next?

The operational takeaway is a two-timescale story: daily and weekly coins moving onto exchanges, monthly coins moving off them. The monthly outflow figure of 13,299 BTC — against weekly inflows of 9,297 BTC — suggests the balance of power between deposit-driven sell readiness and self-custody accumulation remains unresolved. Watch whether the daily inflow trend persists long enough to flip the monthly window positive; that crossover would mark a meaningful shift in exchange-based supply dynamics.
