Analysis of Coinbase Bitcoin holdings
Arkham Intelligence has reported the discovery of millions of Bitcoin deposits and custody addresses linked to Coinbase. The data further revealed that these addresses collectively held more than 1 million Bitcoins, with a total estimated value of more than $25 billion.
Furthermore, the assets in these wallets accounted for 5% of the entire circulating Bitcoin supply. This strengthened Coinbase’s position as the largest entity in the Bitcoin ecosystem.
Furthermore, Arkham Intelligence pointed out that the actual volume of Bitcoin held by the exchange could potentially be even higher, given the presence of unlabeled addresses associated with Coinbase that have not yet been fully taken into account.
Bitcoin’s current supply and market cap
According to data provided by CoinMarketCapThe current circulating supply of Bitcoin is over 19.4 million. At the time of this report, the corresponding market capitalization has risen above $518 billion, making up almost half of the total cryptocurrency market capitalization.
When taking into account Coinbase’s extensive holdings, it becomes clear that Coinbase owns a remarkable 5% of the market value of almost half of the entire cryptocurrency market.
BTC offerings on exchanges
Despite Coinbase’s significant holdings and its position as one of the largest exchanges in the world, Bitcoin’s supply on exchanges has decreased significantly.
According to data from Santiment, the amount of BTC held on exchanges at the time of writing was approximately 1.1 million. Furthermore, a closer examination of the chart reveals not only a decline, but a record low in almost six years.
