<ul>
 <li>Bitcoin ETF holdings have seen a decrease across multiple financial institutions.</li>
 <li>Despite a decline in price, Bitcoin’s trading volume has seen a surge.</li>
</ul>
<p>The recent price correction of <a href="https://coineagle.com/price/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin (BTC)</a> has not only affected crypto traders, but also Wall Street’s interest in the digital asset.</p>
<h2 id="bitcoin-etfs-experience-decline">Bitcoin ETFs Experience Decline</h2>
<p>Collectively, nine Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) reported a decrease of 2,199 Bitcoin in holdings, equivalent to approximately $153.4 million. This decline is primarily due to ARK21Shares and Grayscale. ARK21Shares saw a decrease of 840 BTC, approximately -$58.6 million. On 12th June, they held 48,199 BTC, valued at around $3.36 billion. Grayscale also reported a decrease in its holdings, by 580 BTC, around $40.5 million. On 12th June, Grayscale held 283,966 BTC, valued at $19.81 billion.</p>
<p>This decrease in holdings among major players could indicate a lack of confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term potential, potentially leading to a negative sentiment ripple effect throughout the market. This could prompt a broader sell-off as investors less tolerant to risk might panic and follow suit.</p>
<h2 id="current-state-of-bitcoin">Current State of Bitcoin</h2>
<p>As of now, Bitcoin is trading at $67,268.41. In the last 24 hours, the price of Bitcoin fell by 0.35%. Despite this decline, the trading volume of Bitcoin has surged by 25.26%. This increase in trading volume could indicate a renewed interest in the digital currency. If the volume continues to grow, it could potentially reflect positively on the price.</p>
<p>Data from this week revealed a two-month high in transfers from mining pools to exchanges, coinciding with Bitcoin nearing its local peak of $70,000. This suggests that miners were capitalizing on the price surge, potentially through over-the-counter (OTC) desks.</p>
<p>The recent Bitcoin halving, which reduced miner rewards, likely drove this trend. As a result, miners may have sold a portion of their holdings to maintain profitability. On the 10th of June, 1,200 BTC were sold, marking the highest daily total in two months and indicating a potential rise in selling pressure from miners.</p>
<p>Furthermore, miner revenue has declined. As this continues, miners may be incentivized to sell their holdings to remain profitable, which could add further selling pressure on Bitcoin.</p>
