The value of Bitcoin has tanked ahead of the weekend following BlackRock’s Spot BTC ETF outflow. At press time, Bitcoin (BTC) is worth $59,367, with a minimal decline in the last 24 hours.&nbsp; 
The value of BTC today is almost 3% lower than it was seven days ago. Historically, BTC has dropped further down on the weekend compared to its Friday Wall Street close.&nbsp; 
Overall, BTC’s demand growth remains low and has turned negative in the last few weeks.

At this point, traders predict that market volatility will increase in the coming weeks. Despite favorable rate cut signs and endorsements from Republican nominee Donald Trump, BTC has generally traded sideways over the last week. BTC’s drop has led the rest of the crypto market down in losses.&nbsp;
