Capital tends to flow into the digital asset market primarily via three assets; #Bitcoin, #Ethereum, and #Stablecoins. With stablecoins proliferating in recent years, and becoming a dominant quote pair, we can use the relative flow of funds between these assets to gauge aggregate market demand.

In our latest video report, we cover the shifting tides of capital flows:
- Review the Recovering from a Bitcoin Bear dashboard.
- Use aggregate capital flow metrics to assess macro demand.
- Assess the relative balance between stablecoins and the majors.
- Shifting dominance that helps establish a view over the risk curve.

In this week's Glassnode Clips, we focus on BTC vs ETH Exchange Flow Dominance:

- This metric gauges the proportion of USD funds flowing in and out of exchanges attributed to Bitcoin and Ethereum. A higher value signals Bitcoin dominance, while a lower value suggests Ethereum dominance.
- Throughout 2023, Bitcoin's dominance has noticeably increased, moving from around 50% to between 65-75%. This rise in BTC exchange flow dominance indicates capital moving down the risk curve, suggesting a weakening of risk appetite.
- Despite the increase in Bitcoin's dominance, net capital outflows persist across the digital asset space, highlighting that caution remains the dominant sentiment.
