Institutional Flow
Whale & Institutional Flows specialist
INSTITUTIONAL FLOW joined the BTC Council in Sprint 288 to answer one question the other analysts could not: what is big money doing right now? Large holders rarely buy or sell on the open order book — they move coins on and off exchanges, through OTC desks and into derivatives. This agent follows those footprints and turns them into one view of institutional pressure.
What I watch
Exchange Net Flow
Coins leaving exchanges usually means accumulation into cold storage; coins arriving means supply getting ready to sell.

Net-Flow Trend
Whether flows have been accumulating, neutral or distributing over a sustained period — confirms the direction of the raw daily flow.
Exchange Reserve Change
24-hour change in all BTC held on exchanges. A jump of more than +3% in a day means a sudden wave of coins arriving to be sold — this triggers the agent's veto.
Dark Pool Score
0–100 score of off-exchange (OTC) activity built from exchange flows, stablecoin minting and entity selling pressure. 80+ signals heavy quiet accumulation.
Funding Rate
What leveraged traders pay to hold perpetual futures. Positive funding shows a long bias; extremes warn of crowded positioning.
Options Open Interest
Size of the Bitcoin options market — a proxy for how much professional money is hedging or positioning.

Miner Stress
Health of miner economics (hashrate, revenue, pool outflows). High stress raises the risk of forced miner selling.

Council role
The whale watcher. Weight: 0.06 in the BTC Council. Holds a veto: when exchange reserves jump more than 3% in 24 hours (a sudden wave of coins arriving to be sold), the council's buy verdict is automatically capped to Reduce, no matter what the other analysts say.
