Ethereum Balance on Exchange at a 3-Month High as ETH Plunges 13% Daily

Today’s been a complete bloodbath in the cryptocurrency markets as the majority of coins trade deeply in the red. It appears that there might be further selling pressure for ETH, as the supply of coins sitting on exchanges is currently at a three-month high.

• As CryptoPotato reported earlier today, global markets were thrown in shambles as Russia invaded Ukraine.
• Vladimir Putin – the Russian president – declared a military operation, whereas the president of Ukraine – Volodymyr Zelensky, said that the former had launched a “full-scale invasion of Ukraine.”
• The results weren’t late. Global markets tumbled, and cryptocurrencies weren’t left behind. Bitcoin plunged to $34K, while ETH dropped by double-digits.
• Data from popular analytics provider, Glassnode reveals that ETH sitting on exchanges has reached a 3-month high.

Ethereum balance on exchanges just reached a 3-month high of 14,795,397.786 ETH.

• The previous high was made yesterday – somewhat expectedly.
• In any case, at the time of this writing, ETH’s market also saw about $124 million worth of liquidations in the past 24 hours. Interestingly enough, that’s almost as much as Bitcoin’s total liquidations over the same period.
