$BTC #BTCUp1.17%
📊 BTC at $84,175, up 1.42% in 24 hours.
Price is holding up, but the flows underneath tell a more mixed story.
ETF flows:
• US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $678.9M in net outflows this week
• The latest single-day figure was $487.1M
• Total ETF assets sit around $107.4B
Outflows against a modest price gain suggest softer institutional demand. Spot and derivatives buying are only partly offsetting that drag.
Liquidations:
• $167M in futures positions liquidated across the market in 24 hours
• $115M were shorts, $52.03M were longs
• BTC shorts: $35.09M, longs: $5.84M
Forced short covering magnified intraday buying, showing leveraged positioning had leaned bearish while price still found support.
Macro backdrop:
• High oil prices and rising Treasury yields continue to pressure risk-asset valuations
• The US August trade deficit widened to $105.6B, erasing early tariff gains
• CPI and PPI data land this week, with a policy meeting following at month-end
Price can move on positioning while flows and macro stay cautious. That divergence is worth noting.
