Flow Types
Exchange-to-Exchange
BTC moving between two exchanges — operational rebalancing, not demand
Definition
Sender + recipient both labeled exchanges (different operators). Cancels out in naive flow-counts (one exchange's outflow is another's inflow), but our flow_type isolates this so real demand signals stay clean.
Context anchor
Typically 2–5% of daily whale volume; spikes can indicate liquidity-event rebalancing
Example
5,000 BTC moved Binance → Coinbase (rebalancing, not real demand)
