Bitcoin Sees 14,942 Coins Exit Exchanges as Fed and Inflation Loom — Could BTC’s Falling Wallet Count Be a Bullish Twist?

Santiment Intelligence recorded a single-day net exchange outflow of 14,942 BTC, the largest in five weeks, as coins moved off trading platforms ahead of the Federal Reserve’s Wednesday rate decision and Thursday’s GDP and PCE inflation reports. The Fed kept rates unchanged at 3.75%–4% after a 10–2 vote; two policymakers favored a 0.25 percentage-point increase. CoinGecko data put Bitcoin at $78,047, with $80,000 in focus. Santiment also said roughly 30,000 non-empty wallets were lost since Oct. 16, leaving about 59.95 million, while CryptoQuant data showed publicly listed companies held about 1.3 million BTC, up 31% over 14 months.
