Bitcoin ETF has seen an outflow of 1.21 billion dollars for three consecutive days. What's happening in the market?


Recently, Bitcoin's ETF (which is a fund that allows investors to indirectly invest in Bitcoin) has seen an outflow of $1.21 billion for three consecutive days. This number sounds quite alarming; the last time such a large outflow occurred was in March. So, what exactly happened? Let's briefly discuss.
1. Why did the money flow out?
In simple terms, everyone is a bit "scared" right now. Recently, the global economic situation has been unstable, trade tensions are high, and policies are uncertain, leaving investors feeling insecure. They think it's best to take their money back and wait until the situation becomes clearer. It's like you have a few candies in your hand and see that it's going to rain outside, so you quickly tuck them into your pocket to avoid getting them wet.
2. Why can't the price of Bitcoin go up?
The price of Bitcoin has been fluctuating recently and is quite unstable. It initially rose to $106,000 but then dropped to $105,204. It's like a roller coaster, going up and down, leaving people feeling uncertain. Many investors see the price not going up and are even more reluctant to invest.
3. Does everyone still have a positive outlook on Bitcoin?
Although money has flowed out now, some experts still believe that Bitcoin is a good thing in the long run. They think of Bitcoin as "digital gold"; although the price is currently volatile, in the long term, there will still be people willing to invest.
4. Why did the Ethereum ETF actually attract funds?
Unlike Bitcoin, Ethereum's ETF has also seen an inflow of $78 million in the past few days. Why? Because Ethereum has some technical advantages, such as its ability to do smart contracts (i.e., a self-executing contract), many people feel that it has more potential in the future. It's like if you have two friends, one is not doing well right now, and the other is always good, and you will be more willing to support that good one.
Summary
Currently, the outflow of money from Bitcoin ETFs is primarily due to people's lack of confidence and the instability of the market. However, the long-term value of Bitcoin is still viewed positively by many. If you are an investor, it may be wise to wait a bit longer and assess the situation before making any decisions.
