▲ Bitcoin (BTC) ETF
BlackRock recorded its largest weekly outflow this year amidst the sluggish performance of Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs. Last week, it sold Bitcoin daily, liquidating a total of $1.01 billion, and the overall Bitcoin ETF market saw an outflow of $1.26 billion.
According to U.Today on May 25 (local time), BlackRock maintained its dominance in the Bitcoin ETF market but accounted for the largest portion of the total outflows last week. Data released by the Arkham Intelligence platform shows that BlackRock sold Bitcoin every single day last week.
The scale of this sell-off amounted to $1.01 billion on a weekly basis. U.Today reported that this outflow is the largest recorded by BlackRock since November 2025. This coincided with a period of increased market volatility and a bearish shift in cryptocurrency investor sentiment, leading to sustained pressure on the prices of major cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin.
The movement of institutional investors withdrawing funds has also become clear. U.Today pointed out that as uncertainty grows, institutional investors appear to be pulling out funds to avoid further losses. Along with BlackRock's massive sell-off, the total weekly outflow from Bitcoin ETFs was tallied at $1.26 billion.
Bitcoin was trading at $77,443 at the time of writing, up 0.45% from the previous day. U.Today reported that although Bitcoin started strongly earlier this month, investor confidence is weakening, and market participants have begun to anticipate further declines.
There were also assessments that it is uncertain whether Bitcoin can break through its current resistance level. U.Today reported that if the bearish trend continues, observations are being raised in the market that Bitcoin could undergo a deeper correction. BlackRock's $1.01 billion sell-off and the $1.26 billion outflow from the ETF market have emerged as key variables fueling concerns about slowing institutional demand.
