Bitcoin's performance this week has been notably poor, with a 13% decline, its worst since February. This downturn is compounded by a record 13-day streak of net outflows from spot bitcoin ETFs, which have seen total assets drop from $107.8 billion to $82.8 billion. The decline was initially triggered by Strategy's announcement that it sold 32 BTC for about $2.5 million, its first sale since 2022, to meet preferred stock dividend obligations. This sale led to significant liquidations totaling $594 million across crypto exchanges. Analysts are now focused on Strategy's upcoming disclosure on Monday, which could either signal a return to aggressive buying or further selling, impacting market sentiment. The broader market context is unfavorable, with capital shifting towards equities in sectors like semiconductors and AI, while bitcoin struggles to maintain its narrative as a safe-haven asset amid geopolitical tensions and inflation concerns. Some analysts suggest that the current downturn could extend into the second half of the year, with a potential price floor below $40,000.
