Bitcoin (BTC) Faces Market Exhaustion Amid ETF Inflow Slowdown

Bitcoin (BTC) Faces Market Exhaustion Amid ETF Inflow Slowdown

The post Bitcoin (BTC) Faces Market Exhaustion Amid ETF Inflow Slowdown appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Iris Coleman Sep 26, 2025 08:30 Bitcoin shows signs of exhaustion post-FOMC rally with long-term holders realizing significant profits. ETF inflows slow, indicating potential market cooling. Bitcoin (BTC) is experiencing signs of exhaustion following a rally driven by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, according to Glassnode Insights. Long-term holders have realized profits amounting to 3.4 million BTC, while inflows to exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have slowed, suggesting a potential cooling phase for the market. Market Dynamics and Long-Term Holder Activity The recent rally saw Bitcoin’s price peak near $117,000, transitioning into a corrective phase marked by a “buy the rumour, sell the news” dynamic. Despite this, the on-chain drawdown remains mild at 8%, a stark contrast to the more significant declines seen in previous cycles. Notably, the realized cap inflows have reached $678 billion, highlighting substantial capital rotation and distribution. Long-term holders have played a significant role in this market phase, realizing 3.4 million BTC in profits. This heavy distribution aligns with historical patterns where long-term holder activity often marks market tops. The current cycle’s realized profits have already surpassed those of previous cycles, indicating a mature rally. ETF Inflows and Market Fragility ETF inflows, which once absorbed much of the supply, have sharply decreased around the FOMC meeting. This reduction in institutional demand, coupled with increased long-term holder distribution, has created a fragile market balance. The short-term holder cost basis at $111,000 is identified as a critical level to maintain to prevent further market cooling. Spot and Futures Market Stress Spot market volumes spiked during the recent sell-off, driven by forced liquidations and thin liquidity. This situation exacerbated the decline, forming a temporary foundation just above the short-term holder cost basis. Concurrently, futures markets saw a sharp deleveraging as Bitcoin’s…

Bitcoin Fails To Hold $110K, Here’s Why

The post Bitcoin Fails To Hold $110K, Here’s Why appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key takeaways: Strong US economic data and rising gold prices shift investor focus away from Bitcoin’s upside. Regulatory uncertainty and vague US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve plans keep BTC price down despite macro tailwinds. Bitcoin (BTC) failed to reclaim the $110,000 level on Friday, despite high expectations from traders following the monthly BTC options expiry. Hopes for a post-expiry rally were dashed as bearish momentum continued, driven by several headwinds, including macroeconomic data and a possible investigation targeting listed cryptocurrency treasury companies. The US Commerce Department reported Friday that the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index rose 2.7% in August compared to the previous year, matching economists’ forecasts. Persistent inflation is one of the reasons the US Federal Reserve remains cautious about lowering interest rates.

Bitcoin traders’ frustrations were further amplified as gold surged to $3,770 on Friday, just 0.5% shy of its all-time high, signaling that investors are leaning toward traditional safe-haven assets amid uncertainty. The S&P 500 posted gains on Friday after data showed a 0.6% rise in US consumer spending for August.

Experts Claim Bitcoin Crash to $94,334 Ahead As BTC Dominance Rebounds

Experts Claim Bitcoin Crash to $94,334 Ahead As BTC Dominance Rebounds

The post Experts Claim Bitcoin Crash to $94,334 Ahead As BTC Dominance Rebounds appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin (BTC) price is seeing strong selling pressure, correcting another 6% over the past week and slipping under $110,000. Market experts believe that the Bitcoin crash can extend further all the way t0 $94,334. At the same time, they see BTC dominance surging higher, which could potentially mean that altcoins could crash even harder. Bitcoin Crash Can Extend to $94,334 Says Expert Crypto analyst Ali Martinez has warned that Bitcoin faces the risk of a steep correction if it fails to reclaim the $116,354 level. According to Martinez, pricing bands suggest that BTC is currently trading in a tight range, with resistance at $116,000 and support near $94,000. He explained that the MVRV bands highlight this consolidation zone. Thus, losing the mean band could trigger a Bitcoin crash with another 15% downside. Bitcoin price is showing weakness despite the drop in US PCE inflation data. If BTC cannot hold above the critical resistance, a decline toward $94,334 remains a strong possibility.

Furthermore, they expect the BTC dominance to rise, which could mean a strong altcoin correction in the near term. Speaking on the development, crypto analyst Ted Pillows noted: “Crypto market open interest is now at a 4-week low. All the leverage built up this month has been wiped out. Open interest has gone down by $21,000,000,000 from its peak. This is a good thing in the long term”. BTC Dominance Sees Strong Bounce Crypto analysts are pointing to renewed strength in Bitcoin dominance, signaling a shift in market liquidity. This could potentially weigh on altcoins in the near term. Analyst Ted Pillows noted that Bitcoin dominance is bouncing back sharply, suggesting liquidity is moving into BTC at the…
BlackRock Deepens Bitcoin Exposure With $77M Buy as It Prepares New ETF

BlackRock Deepens Bitcoin Exposure With $77M Buy as It Prepares New ETF

The post BlackRock Deepens Bitcoin Exposure With $77M Buy as It Prepares New ETF appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin 27 September 2025 | 10:05 Even as market sentiment wavers, BlackRock continues to build its Bitcoin position. The asset manager quietly added more than 700 BTC this week, worth close to $77 million, while also laying the groundwork for a new product aimed at yield-hungry investors. The purchase, executed through Coinbase Prime in several large transfers, came during a period of uncertainty in the derivatives market. Roughly $17 billion in Bitcoin options are set to expire on Deribit, leaving traders cautious and pushing the put-to-call ratio toward bearish territory. Despite that backdrop, Bitcoin is still holding above $111,000, and BlackRock’s move stands out as a signal of confidence at a time when retail sentiment appears fragile. A Clear Preference for BTC Recent flows also highlight how the firm is prioritizing Bitcoin over Ethereum. In previous weeks, BlackRock trimmed ETH positions while boosting its BTC exposure, leading to hundreds of millions in net inflows for the top cryptocurrency. Ethereum, by contrast, has seen persistent outflows, and its staking ETF application remains under SEC review until late October. Expanding Its ETF Suite Alongside accumulation, BlackRock has filed for a new iShares Bitcoin Premium ETF. Unlike the flagship IBIT, which tracks spot prices, this fund would employ covered call strategies designed to generate income while offering Bitcoin exposure. Analysts have framed it as a follow-up to IBIT rather than a diversification into altcoins. The strategy comes after IBIT shattered ETF growth records, surpassing $80 billion in assets under management in just over a year — a feat that took Vanguard’s S&P 500 ETF nearly five years to match. Broader Ambitions Beyond ETFs, BlackRock has hinted at tokenizing traditional assets such as equities, reflecting a push to bring conventional finance into blockchain ecosystems. At the same time, it continues to face regulatory hurdles,…
