$BTC ETF at the beginning of the week, Bitwise has heavily dumped, causing the cash flow to be negative by more than 100 million dollars!
After a series of days of rapid growth, BTC Spot ETF funds had a noteworthy break session with increasing selling pressure, led by an unexpected sell-off from Bitwise.
🔷 The trading session on 19/01 concluded with a short-term negative signal:
- Institutions sold a net -1,106 BTC out of the market.
- Equivalent to a withdrawal of -$102.66 Million USD within just the last 24 hours.
🔶 Distinction occurred sharply among the giants:
- Most notably, Bitwise unexpectedly became the leading Bear with a selling volume of up to -951 BTC. Following was the familiar face Grayscale, continuing to sell -319 BTC.
- BlackRock still maintains a net buying position of +159 BTC, but this buying force is too weak to counter the selling pressure from Bitwise.
- Other giants like Fidelity and ARK 21Shares chose to stand by and observe with a volume of 0.
🔷 Although the session on 19/01 was a day of decline, looking broadly at the weekly frame, ETF funds are still holding a huge net buying position of +18,138 BTC. This indicates that this might just be a short-term profit-taking after a week of massive buying.
Bitwise dumped nearly 1,000 BTC in one day, is this a periodic portfolio restructuring move or are they seeing deeper adjustment risks of BTC in the short term?
