Ethereum exchange supply hits a multi-year low

Ethereum ( ETH ) supply on all cryptocurrency exchanges has capitulated to a new all-time low (ATL), with the rate of withdrawals having spiked after it reached its all-time high (ATH). The Ethereum exchange reserve across all exchanges has dropped from more than 21.37 million ETH on April 24, 2025, to about 14.54 million on April 22, according to data from CryptoQuant . As such, the supply of ETH on all crypto exchanges has declined by roughly 32% in the past year. Ethereum price and supply on all exchanges.

As such, the notable decline in ETH supply on all crypto exchanges over the past three months could sustain a strong bullish momentum in the near future. Moreover, a decline in Ethereum supply on all crypto exchanges has historically been linked to rising demand, thus fueling bull rallies and triggering reversals in bear markets. Institutional investors lead in Ethereum accumulation The main reason why the Ethereum supply on all cryptocurrency exchanges declined significantly in the past 12 months was due to renewed demand from institutional investors. For instance, the United States spot ETH exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have seen their net cash outflow decline gradually from November 2025 and could end April 2026 with net cash inflow. As of reporting time, the U.S. spot ETH ETFs had reported net cash inflows of approximately $495.75 million, according to metrics from SoSoValue . Consequently, these funds collectively had total net assets of around $13.66 billion at the time of publication. Spot ETH ETFs’ monthly flows.

Another newly created wallet, 0xf860, withdrew 18,000 $ETH ($43.22M) from #Binance an hour ago and transferred it to #BitGo . https://t.co/gzJUX9U4ZL https://t.co/dIrHLiBgNz pic.twitter.com/UfLUILlMAM — Lookonchain (@lookonchain) April 22, 2026 As such, if institutional demand sustains its current trajectory and continues absorbing ETH from exchanges, the combination of tightening exchange supply and ETF inflow recovery could catalyze a more durable price reversal.
