Ethereum supply on exchanges now accounts for 8.04% of the asset’s total supply according to Santiment data. This is the lowest level recorded since Genesis. The altcoin’s supply on exchanges typically influences the asset’s price. A reduction in supply is considered bullish as it supports the thesis of declining selling pressure on ETH.
