According to on-chain data analysis, a single whale investor has withdrawn 3,501 Bitcoins from the Binance exchange in the past three days. Meanwhile, the US spot Bitcoin ETF issuers registered one of the best days in the past two months, whereby the total cash inflow was more than $272 million on Thursday.
