Bitcoin scissors gap opens on BinanceUS

Bitcoin’s supply shrinks in the US
Recent data from Glassnode shows that the influence of the US market on Bitcoin is waning. The SEC lawsuit of the week, followed by Binance’s halting of US dollar trading, is drying up the liquidity flowing from the region. Comparison with other countries shows that European markets remained relatively neutral last year, while Asian markets were dominated by supply.
Also, according to a CryptoQuant chart, Bitcoin has recently experienced a significant outflow of funds. This shows that more BTC investors are withdrawing their holdings. The move is likely driven by increased fear, uncertainty, and suspicion (FUD). Specifically, on June 8, there was over 26,000 BTC of negative flow as withdrawals from exchanges increased. However, at the time of this writing, there was a positive flow of over 3,000 BTC.
Also, Bitcoin’s daily time chart has revealed minimal gains. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading around 25,500, down 4%. Also, the MACD indicator showed that the ongoing bearish trend has weakened due to this slight price increase.
