Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) traded in the US experienced one of their sharpest daily outflows of the year on the first trading day of the week. According to SoSoValue data, a total net outflow of $648.6 million occurred from spot Bitcoin ETFs on Monday. This figure marks the largest single-day fund outflow recorded since January 29th.

These outflows followed a total net outflow of $1 billion recorded last week, ending six weeks of uninterrupted positive capital inflow into spot Bitcoin ETFs.

The largest outflow was seen in BlackRock’s IBIT fund, one of the world’s largest asset management companies, with a net outflow of $448.3 million. This was followed by Ark & 21Shares’ ARKB fund with a net outflow of $109.6 million. Fidelity’s FBTC fund also recorded a net outflow of $63.4 million. Negative capital movements were also observed in Bitwise, VanEck, Invesco, and Franklin Templeton funds.

Experts interpret this trend as a short-term flight from corporate risk. Zeus Research analyst Dominick John stated that institutional investors are taking profits and reducing their positions due to increasing macroeconomic uncertainty.

Bitcoin’s price fell below $77,000 again over the weekend, as escalating US-Iran tensions and rising oil prices fueled inflation concerns in the market. Simultaneously, rising US bond yields made risk-free returns more attractive to investors.

Analysts say Bitcoin is currently consolidating in a critical support zone between $76,000 and $77,000. The increase in market capitalization of stablecoins like USDT and USDC suggests that liquidity lurking in the market could potentially shift back into buying activity in the event of a pullback. According to experts, while short-term volatility persists, the market’s medium-term bullish outlook remains.
