Additional losses were seen across Invesco, Valkyrie, and VanEck funds, which collectively registered net outflows of $19 million.

Bitcoin Price Stalls Below $100,000

Bitcoin’s attempt to breach the psychological $100,000 level faltered last week, falling to $91,881 at the time of reporting, according to Brave New Coin’s Bitcoin Liquid Index. The cryptocurrency’s current price marks a 6.2% decline in the past 24 hours and a significant retracement from its recent peak of nearly $100,000.

Selling pressure from long-term holders has contributed to the bearish sentiment, with over 461,000 BTC sold since the asset’s most recent high above $99,000. These sales, combined with a wave of liquidations amounting to over $1 billion in the past two days, have raised concerns about a potential drop below $90,000. Technical analysts suggest Bitcoin may find support near $85,000 before attempting another rally.

Record Weekly Inflows Highlight Market Dynamics

Despite Monday’s setback, the broader market trend for Bitcoin ETFs has been positive. Last week, U.S. Bitcoin ETFs recorded unprecedented inflows of $3.3 billion. BlackRock’s IBIT was a standout performer, securing over 60% of the weekly total.

MicroStrategy, a major corporate Bitcoin holder, also bolstered market activity with its largest-ever acquisition of 55,500 BTC worth $5.4 billion. The move reinforced the company’s position as a leading institutional player in the crypto space, with a cumulative Bitcoin holding of 386,700 BTC.

Altcoin Performance and Ethereum ETF Trends

While Bitcoin ETFs struggled on Monday, spot Ethereum ETFs recorded $2.8 million in net inflows. Trading volumes for Ethereum ETFs surged to $711.2 million, a significant increase from last Friday’s $373.9 million. Altcoins like Solana and XRP also saw investor interest, with Solana capturing $16 million in inflows compared to Ethereum’s modest $2.8 million.

Market participants remain focused on macroeconomic factors, including Federal Reserve policy and inflation data, which could shape the trajectory of both Bitcoin and the broader crypto market in the coming weeks.
