I'm not exactly sure how the timing of etf buys and sells settle but this is interesting. Price went up today despite selling by ETFs (ibit with second biggest outflow in it's 1 year).

Going to have to show those paper BTC Boyz how we do

This chart always stuck out to me during the great downward chop of 2024. ETFs gradually up, chop gradually down. Bottom line, there is way more at play than the ETFs. They are a small percentage of the active degen market and actual buyers and sellers. They are basically just a nice, growing addition to the floor. I don’t think there is any other way to think about them.

That's a good perspective. I agree there is way more at play. They can dominate for a day or two when they have the 1 billion buy days but this just made me curious as to who did the buying today.

I doubt it's mstr, his weekly buys and the ATM have been getting smaller

The ETFs sold

So who bought a bunch of Bitcoin 😁

Yeah, could be anyone. Maybe just a global correction after Monday, who knows? How anyone holding bonds under 8% is still holding them is mind blowing to me.

It's going to be a fun year ,😁

It sure is, brotha.

I believe today’s iBit report would be from Monday’s activity. I’ve read a few places that this is the way they do it, not sure why.

Interesting, so a day behind?

Yup exactly, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see tomorrow’s numbers come in really high after today’s big jump.

Definitely could be wrong here 🤷‍♂️

I guess we’ll see 😀
