"The price has more than halved since last Novembers highs and there definitely feels to be much less buzz around cryptos than in recent years.

· Prediction by MMCrypto. Christopher Jaszczynski
According to Christopher Jaszczynski, the fact that there are a lot of withdrawals from an exchange in this specific context right now with FTX going down might not be the most bullish thing but if we're a little more objective about what it means from a supply point of view when more and more Bitcoin is withdrawn from centralized exchanges, the fewer Bitcoin we have on a centralized exchange, and the fewer Bitcoin there are to be sold on the market. It's Bullish when Bitcoin is taken from an exchange thus the circulating Supply on centralized exchanges is being decreased that is good that is the supply which is potentially being sold on the market with the mouse click changing the Bitcoin price towards the downside this has always been a positive indicator so yes exchange is going down, trust thinking in the space, not the best but this at least is a piece of very bullish news.
