Over $1.6 billion in net outflows in a single week, with more than $1 billion pulled from BlackRock’s IBIT alone. These figures show that institutions aren’t just making short-term trades—they’re seriously reassessing their allocations. ETFs have gone from being a source of buying pressure to a source of selling pressure.
Looking at the macro picture, the blowout jobs report has kept December rate-hike expectations firmly in focus. With risk-free yields so high, why would big investors give up Treasury returns to take on high volatility? Investors who bought in on rate-cut and election expectations are now decisively taking profits and heading for the exit.
Back to the charts: BTC and ETH are slightly up, but this is just a technical bounce after a sharp drop. Funds keep flowing out, and the $76,000–$78,000 range is packed with underwater positions. Any modest rebound is likely to be pushed back down by selling pressure.
A key point about our long position at 72,222: we need to be extremely cautious now. This bounce absolutely shouldn’t be treated as a reversal to chase. While the market is moving up, trim the position if needed and raise your protective stop. Keep a close eye on the hard floor between $72,000 and $73,000. If continued ETF outflows push BTC below $72K, don’t try to ride it out—take the stop loss. At this stage, cash is more valuable than being in a position. Protect your principal and wait for sentiment to fully wash out. $BTC #eth
