Bitcoin falls below $63,000, possibly due to continuous outflows from ETFs and the expiration of $10.6 billion in options suppressing the market

Bitcoin further declined towards $62,000 on Tuesday, continuing its weak fluctuations under the pressure of six consecutive weeks of outflows from spot ETFs, a shift in macro interest rate expectations towards hawkishness, and the expiration pressure of quarterly options. Ethereum also fell below $1,700 on the same day, with both BTC and ETH retreating nearly 20% over the past 30 days. This week's market pressure mainly comes from two clues. One is that the Federal Reserve maintained interest rates at 3.5% to 3.75% during the FOMC meeting on June 18, but the statement significantly reduced easing language, and the dot plot shifted from previously suggesting rate cuts to indicating rate hikes. Among the 18 officials, 9 have already predicted at least one rate hike this year, and the probability of a rate hike in December has significantly increased compared to a month ago. The second is that geopolitical risks have once again disturbed the market. Previously, expectations of a ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran had pushed Bitcoin above $67,000, but during the signing ceremony on June 19, the situation broke down, and Iran withdrew from negotiations. Due to the 24/7 trading in the crypto market, Bitcoin was the first to reflect this shock. In addition, Deribit will face the expiration of approximately $10.6 billion in options on June 26, which has also intensified the market's wait-and-see sentiment at the end of the quarter. Analysts believe that current leverage has been largely cleared, and market positions are defensive, but the next direction still depends on Thursday's PCE inflation data and whether the capital flow of spot ETFs can turn positive again.

Analysis: Bitcoin falls below $73,000, BlackRock's IBIT sees record outflows

The cryptocurrency market saw a significant decline on Thursday morning, with Bitcoin dropping below $73,000. This round of decline was accompanied by the largest single-day net outflow from the U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF since late January. Nick Ruck, director of LVRG Research, stated that this sharp drop reflects a risk-averse sentiment as profit-taking occurs after recent highs, and is also influenced by rising U.S. Treasury yields and macro caution stemming from geopolitical news.Analysts added that the market decline is primarily due to funds rotating into traditional financial stocks, and once key price levels are breached, a large amount of derivatives liquidation further depressed prices. Data shows that the U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF recorded a total net outflow of $733.4 million on Wednesday, marking the largest single-day outflow since January 29. Among them, BlackRock's IBIT saw a net outflow of $527.8 million, setting a record for the largest single-day outflow since the fund's inception. Additionally, other ETFs like Grayscale's GBTC also experienced negative outflows. Only Morgan Stanley's MSBT recorded a net inflow of $4.3 million.Analysts believe that the outflow of funds is due to basis trade liquidations and institutional de-risking operations, while IBIT's record outflow was influenced by large trades the previous day. Peter Chung, head of research at Presto Research, pointed out that Bitcoin has exhibited a "unique trading pattern" since mid-May, continuing to decline over the past two weeks and underperforming risk assets like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, primarily driven by outflows from the spot Bitcoin ETF.Analysts are closely monitoring ETF fund flow trends and Bitcoin's support level around $70,000, warning that ongoing fund outflows may indicate that institutions are further adjusting their cryptocurrency asset allocations. On a macro level, Asian stock markets opened lower on Thursday, with the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index and Japan's Nikkei 225 both declining, due to renewed strikes by the U.S. against Iran amid a fragile ceasefire agreement.

Gate Ventures: The market is entering a phase of structural repair, with capital inflows focusing on leading assets and infrastructure sectors

According to Gate Ventures' latest weekly report, there has been a significant style shift in global stock markets, with funds rotating from growth sectors to value and defensive assets. The Dow Jones Index rose by 2.22%, and labor market data remains resilient. Macroeconomic indicators show a divergence, with the composite PMI preliminary value rising to a two-year high of 54.4, but input cost pressures still exist. Coupled with the ongoing impact of high interest rates on real estate activity, the economy overall presents a structural state of coexistence between expansion and pressure. The cryptocurrency market has slightly retreated, with BTC down 0.5% and ETH down 1.6%; the total market capitalization declined by 0.4%, remaining flat compared to last week, and market sentiment is in a moderate recovery phase.At the asset and industry level, the top 30 assets averaged a rise of 4.2%, with HYPE and ZEC leading the performance, influenced by factors such as ecosystem expansion, liquidity improvement, and easing regulatory uncertainty. In terms of industry dynamics, on-chain infrastructure and the compliance process continue to advance, with active financing and product iteration in areas such as prediction markets, on-chain derivatives, and payment networks. In terms of investment and financing, a total of 24 transactions were completed last week, disclosing a total financing amount of approximately $532.6 million, with infrastructure and DeFi being the main sectors of flow, and Kalshi securing a single financing of $200 million.Additionally, Variational completed a $50 million Series A financing, AEON completed $8 million in pre-seed financing, while infrastructure and social blocks recorded 12 and 6 transactions, respectively. Overall, against the backdrop of macro volatility and market divergence, capital allocation continues to trend towards long-term infrastructure and real application scenarios.
