Following the halving event, this metric swiftly climbed to a peak of 1.82 million BTC on April 23, before resuming a downward trend. Since then, the amount of BTC held by miners has decreased by 1%.
Interestingly, mining activity on exchanges has declined over the past three months.According to CryptoQuant, the flow of BTC from miners’ wallets to exchanges (assessed using a 30-day moving average) has dropped by 48% since reaching a year-to-date high of 11,853 BTC on March 27.

They may also be engaging in peer-to-peer transactions, selling directly to buyers without using exchanges.
