The 10 spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced their biggest three-day outflow since their debut in January, as <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-03-21/us-spot-bitcoin-btc-etfs-post-largest-three-day-outflow-since-launch" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">reported </a>by Bloomberg. This shift in investor sentiment comes after heightened interest that propelled the largest cryptocurrency in the market to a <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/breaking-news-ticker/breaking-bitcoin-hits-new-all-time-high-surging-past-70000-for-the-first-time-in-history/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">record high of $73,700</a>. 
<h2 id="bitcoin-etfs-see-record-outflows">Bitcoin ETFs See Record Outflows</h2> 
Between Monday and Wednesday, a net total of $742 million exited the Bitcoin ETFs, reflecting outflows from the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) and a moderation in subscriptions for similar offerings from prominent firms like BlackRock (IBIT) and Fidelity Investments (FBTC). 
<a href="https://x.com/EricBalchunas/status/1770793028631888207?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">According </a>to Bloomberg ETF expert Eric Balchunas, the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust has experienced a notable outflow surge. This recent development indicates a “second wind” of investor <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/bitcoin/bitcoin-pullback-has-ended-analyst-declares-worst-is-over/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">withdrawals</a>, with a substantial $1.4 billion leaving the trust just this week.&nbsp;

Notably, these withdrawals have surpassed all other ETFs in year-to-date outflows and set a new record for cumulative outflows in ETF history, as shown in the chart above. 
Nevertheless, GBTC continues to hold a prominent position in terms of revenue generation. It currently ranks third out of the 3,400 ETFs available, demonstrating its continued financial success. 
Despite the <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/bitcoin/bitcoin-hindrance-75000-high/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">recent outflows</a>, the overall performance of these funds remains noteworthy, with net inflows of $11.4 billion recorded since their launch, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. This signifies one of the most successful debuts for an ETF category. 
<h2 id="crypto-analyst-predicts-massive-bounce-for-btc">Crypto Analyst Predicts “Massive Bounce” For BTC</h2> 
Bitcoin experienced a significant surge of over 5% in the United States on Wednesday, propelled by signals from the Federal Reserve (Fed) hinting at potential <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/bitcoin-news/bitcoin-traders-capitulate-what-last-2-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">interest-rate cuts</a>.&nbsp; 
However, the Asian market painted a different picture on Thursday, with Bitcoin losing momentum compared to continued gains in global stocks and gold. According to Bloomberg, the news of outflows from Bitcoin ETFs permeated markets, contributing to the contrasting performance. 
Nonetheless, renowned crypto analyst Michael van de Poppe shared a bold prediction on social media platform X (formerly Twitter). In his <a href="https://x.com/CryptoMichNL/status/1770718547380974005?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">post</a>, he expressed optimism about a “massive bounce” for Bitcoin, suggesting the potential for a continuation of its upward trajectory.&nbsp; 
Van de Poppe also predicted that Bitcoin could consolidate in the near term before embarking on another rally towards the all-time high it reached before the halving event, which is expected to begin sometime in April.

Currently, BTC is trading at $66,200, reflecting a 4% increase in the past 24 hours despite ongoing outflows in the ETF market. Over longer time frames, Bitcoin has shown consistent gains, with a 27% increase over the past thirty days and an impressive 136% gain year-to-date.
