Lastly, the Santiment Supply on Exchanges metric declined from 76.74 million on September 28 to 75.58 million on Thursday and has constantly declined since August. This 1.5% decline in supply on exchanges indicates increasing confidence among investors as holders remove UNI tokens from exchanges and store them in cold wallets, reducing selling pressure on UNI’s price.
