Pressure on the crypto market from institutional sellers
According to available data, a major block seller sold Bitcoin Trust ETF iShares from BlackRock (known as IBIT) shares worth $1.3 billion through a dark pool trading platform — this coincided with the last sharp decline in Bitcoin.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs also show a steady outflow of funds in recent sessions: investors are cautious after several weeks of volatile trading and rising geopolitical risks.
The weakness of cryptocurrencies contrasts with the dynamics of the broader stock market. The technology-heavy Nasdaq and S&P 500 indices closed the day before at record highs: investors are betting on sustained demand in the artificial intelligence sector.
Shares of Asian tech companies also rose on optimism around the AI sector.
