Bitcoin’s miner supply picture remains tighter than in past cycles, but not tight enough to call it a true supply shock. New data from Axel Adler Jr.’s latest Bitcoin Morning Brief suggests miners still retain a meaningful over-the-counter reserve even as exchange-directed selling pressure stays elevated. Bitcoin Miners Flash Mixed Signal Adler’s core argument rests on two separate but related indicators. One tracks the 30-day moving average of BTC inflows from miners to exchanges, which serves as a direct proxy for realized selling pressure entering the market.
