<p>The flagship Bitcoin has experienced a steep drop, dragging altcoins down with it. Massive net outflows from Bitcoin ETFs (exchange-traded funds) have only worsened the situation. So, what’s exactly happening in this market?</p>
<h2 id="h-bitcoin-etfs-a-tsunami-of-outflows">Bitcoin ETFs: A Tsunami of Outflows</h2>
<p>ETFs have suffered a real hemorrhage. In a single day, U.S. ETFs specializing in Bitcoin recorded net outflows of $226.21 million.</p>

<p>Fidelity’s FBTC, in particular, saw $106 million leave its coffers, marking one of its worst days since inception.</p>
<p>These massive outflows are indicative of a shift in sentiment among institutional investors.</p>
<p>Grayscale’s <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/bitcoin-etf-grayscale-records-its-first-inflows-of-63-million/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">GBTC</a> and Ark Invest and 21Shares’ ARKB weren’t spared, with respective outflows of $62 million and $53 million.</p>
<p>Even funds from Bitwise and VanEck saw outflows of around $10 million each.</p>
<p>The only bright spot came from BlackRock’s IBIT fund, which attracted <a href="https://sosovalue.xyz/assets/etf/us-btc-spot" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$18 million</a>. A small spark in a turbulent sea.</p>
<h2 id="h-impact-on-bitcoin-price-and-altcoins-reaction">Impact on Bitcoin Price and Altcoins’ Reaction</h2>
<p>Bitcoin saw its price drop by 1.48% in 24 hours, reaching $66,704. This decline, albeit modest, had notable repercussions on the altcoin market. Indeed, when the king of cryptos stumbles, its subjects immediately feel the effects.</p>
<p>Ethereum and most altcoins fell alongside Bitcoin. However, one cryptocurrency stood out: Telegram’s Ton.</p>
<p>Despite Bitcoin’s decline, TON attempted to maintain its position. Having reached a record of $7.87, this token now aims for an ambitious new target of $8. The Chaikin Money Flow, a key indicator, shows significant buying pressure, supporting this potential rise. Moreover, Ton even dethroned <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/crypto-ton-is-dethroning-ethereum-in-terms-of-active-addresses/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum in terms of active addresses.</a></p>

<p>However, the road to stability remains fraught with obstacles.</p>
<h2 id="h-a-glimmer-of-hope">A Glimmer of Hope?</h2>
<p>While Bitcoin wavers, ether might pull through. The U.S. SEC plans to rule on spot ether ETFs over the summer.</p>
<p>This news has sparked investor optimism, hoping these funds will attract a considerable share of the investments currently directed towards Bitcoin ETFs.</p>
<p>JPMorgan analysts estimate these spot ether funds could capture up to 20% of the current Bitcoin ETF flows.</p>
<p>However, this perspective is not without challenges. Regulatory uncertainty has led issuers to exclude staking components from these ETFs, making these products less attractive to institutional investors. Gordon Grant, a crypto derivatives trader, even expressed doubts about their immediate success.</p>
<p>The question remains: will Bitcoin manage to turn the tide, or are altcoins doomed to endure the same waves of volatility? The coming months will be crucial for investors, who will need to navigate cautiously. Meanwhile, <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/bitcoin-microstrategy-invests-500-million-in-btc/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MicroStrategy invests $500 million.</a></p>
