Bitcoin Suffers Worst Week Since 2024 as ETF Outflows Hit Record Pace

Bitcoin Suffers Worst Week Since 2024 as ETF Outflows Hit Record Pace

BRN's analysis finds the drawdown reflects a structural shift in institutional demand rather than a single-event shock, with $5.7 billion in long liquidations, $1.3 billion per day in realized losses, and CEX spot volume at its lowest level since October 2023 complicating near-term recovery.
