The increase in the supply of MATIC on exchanges suggests a higher number of coins being deposited, potentially indicating a trend towards selling. This bearish sentiment can exert downward pressure on the cryptocurrency’s value. Conversely, a decrease in exchange supply signifies investors withdrawing their coins, possibly indicating accumulation and presenting a
