Any Bitcoin recovery faces a cash problem as Binance’s stablecoins fall to $32 billion

Binance's tracked ERC-20 stablecoin reserves stand near $32 billion after a substantial contraction, giving traders a reason to test the exchange's remaining buying capacity against actual Bitcoin orders. A November 10 comparison with OKX showed Binance had a higher total value of nearby Bitcoin buy orders in one narrow slice of the market, even as its tracked stablecoin balance remained below October levels. Community analyst Novaque Research via CryptoQuant put the balance at roughly $32 billion on Nov. 10, down from about $41 billion to $42 billion in late October. Its reserve comparison also put OKX near $9 billion, with balances trending lower there. That offers little support for a simple reading that Binance's lost tracked reserves have reappeared at that rival. Bitcoin was trading around $74,000 on Nov. 10.
