Getting hit the most over the last day was Gemini after that exchange paused withdrawals from its Earn program thanks to its ties with crypto investment bank Genesis, whose crypto lending unit was forced to halt withdrawals. According to the Coinglass data, the bitcoin balance at Gemini currently stands at just shy of 165,000 coins, down about 12.5% from roughly 188,500 24 hours earlier.
Suffering a notable decline in bitcoin over the past week is Kraken, where the bitcoin balance at press time of 69,000 is down 27% from the level 7 days ago.
