Bitcoin: Institutions Bought the Dip, So Why Did $BTC Fall?
I was looking at the latest Bitcoin ETF flows, and one detail caught my attention.
US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded around $160 million in inflows on Monday, yet Bitcoin later dropped below $76,000.
That raises an interesting question: if institutional money is coming in, why isn't the price holding up?
My understanding is that ETF inflows show demand for investment products, but they don't guarantee immediate price support. Other sellers, derivatives liquidations, and macro uncertainty can outweigh that demand in the short term.
With the Fed's decision today, I want to watch whether fresh buying can absorb the selling pressure or whether BTC continues making lower lows.
My takeaway: ETF inflows are one piece of the market, not a guarantee of direction. The price reaction matters just as much as the flow number.
What would convince you that institutional buying is actually supporting $BTC ?
