Bitcoin near $81,000 after Matrixport moves 2,400 BTC

Bitcoin traded near $81,000 after Matrixport transferred 2,400 BTC to addresses associated with Binance, on-chain data shows.

Matrixport transferred 2,400 bitcoin to addresses associated with Binance’s deposit infrastructure, according to public blockchain records. At current prices the transfer was worth roughly $194 million and appeared as one or several linked transactions.

The movement was visible on public ledgers used by on-chain analysts and was routed to wallets that blockchain trackers associate with Binance. The transfer took place while bitcoin was trading close to $81,000.

Matrixport is a Singapore-headquartered crypto financial services firm that provides custody, trading and lending products. Binance is a global cryptocurrency exchange that operates public deposit and withdrawal addresses. Neither Matrixport nor Binance issued a public comment tied to the blockchain records.

Transfers from custodial platforms to exchange-linked addresses can reflect client withdrawals, internal rebalancing, or preparation for trading and settlement. At the stated price, 2,400 BTC is a substantial dollar value but represents a small share of total market liquidity. Bitcoin’s price remained near $81,000 after the transfer, with intraday trading showing routine fluctuations.

Public blockchain records let traders and analysts track large transfers without revealing the identities of underlying counterparties. Custodial firms routinely move holdings between cold storage, hot wallets and exchange deposit addresses based on operational needs.
