USDC's loss was CEXs' gain? Well, the real story is...
Sustained interest in various CEX tokens also recorded a hikeon various aspects of the cryptocurrency sector, centralized exchanges were able to reap significant gains during this time.According to data provided by Messari, activity on CEXs hit a 12-month high due to USDC’s de-pegging event. Exchanges such as Binance, OKX, and Kraken all recorded an uptick in activity over this period.
One of the reasons for the high activity was the drop in Externally Owned Addresses on Ethereum. Externally Owned Addresses are user-controlled accounts on the Ethereum blockchain that are owned and controlled by individual users. Unlike contract accounts, which are controlled by code, EOAs are controlled by their private keys and can only be accessed by their respective owners.
Most of the USDC ecosystem was integrated with the Ethereum blockchain. As the USDC stablecoin deviated from its peg, the EOAs dropped by $4 billion in value. However, centralized exchanges managed to accommodate this excess supply and registered a significant 49% hike in their balance as a result.At the time of writing, Binance was leading in terms of exchange balance, with $31.9 billion on its platform. In comparison, OKX and Bitfinex came in second and third place with $5.1 billion and $3.
