Binance Hit with Massive Outflow of Funds Amid SEC Lawsuit, OKX Emerges as Beneficiary

Binance, a major cryptocurrency exchange, has experienced a massive outflow of funds worth $850 million in the last 24 hours and $2 billion in the last seven days, according to DefiLlama. This comes after the SEC filed a lawsuit against Binance, Binance US, and its CEO for alleged violations of US securities regulations.

Meanwhile, OKX, another major player in the cryptocurrency market, has seen significant growth and solidified its position as the second-largest centralized crypto asset trading platform with assets worth $10 billion. The rise of OKX amid Binance's struggles highlights the dynamic nature of the industry and investors are closely watching developments.

  • QCP: BTC's path to $100,000 has stalled, and ETH implied volatility has turned to put options

    QCP Capital has published an analysis indicating that the recent drop in the price of Bitcoin has resulted in long liquidations exceeding $430 million. This drop coincides with the end of five consecutive days of net inflows for spot ETFs, which recorded a outflow of $438 million on Monday, while MicroStrategy fell by 4.4%. With the US holiday approaching and no immediate catalyst to push prices higher, BTC's path towards $100,000 has stalled. In addition, the implied volatility of ETH has turned to bearish options rather than bullish options, and market concerns about downside risks may intensify, especially with the release of the FOMC meeting minutes and PCE data. However, in the long run, this market decline is not an excessive correction. Bitcoin has only retreated to last week's level. Since Trump's election, the market has become extremely overbought and leveraged, so a pause is inevitable.
