Spot Bitcoin ETF Flows

The US Bitcoin spot ETFs saw a net inflow of $124.1 million yesterday. Notably, BlackRock’s IBIT had a net inflow of $205.6 million, while Grayscale’s GBTC experienced a net outflow of $54.3 million.
The crypto market showed mixed trends yesterday. The market started strong, with Bitcoin peaking at $70,000, the highest in two months, but later saw significant declines, with Bitcoin prices falling back to the $66,000 to $67,000 range. The primary cause of this volatility was a large transaction from a US government address, moving nearly 30,000 Bitcoins, valued at over $2 billion. Despite the transaction occurring OTC, it caused panic, leading to a notable market pullback.
