- Bitcoin faces selloff as 65,200 BTC ($5.8B) transferred to exchanges, with prices below $103,227 realized cost basis. - Bitcoin ETFs see $3B in outflows over three weeks, led by Grayscale and BlackRock , as investors shift to cash and altcoin ETFs. - Altcoin ETFs attract $500M in inflows, contrasting Bitcoin's 13% average loss, while Ethereum ETFs lose $1.2B amid weak derivatives markets. - Technical indicators show fragile Bitcoin at $95,000 with RSI at 34, risking further declines if support below $94,

Bitcoin is under increasing strain as short-term investors continue to liquidate their holdings amid a widespread market downturn, with 65,200 BTC—worth more than $5.8 billion at current valuations—recently moved to exchanges

as reported by Cryptobriefing

. This activity points to renewed capitulation among those who purchased during the 2025 rally,

since prices remain under

this year’s realized cost basis of $103,227, resulting in an average loss of 13% for holders. This pattern is reminiscent of

the April 2025 downturn

, when

Bitcoin

dropped from $109,000 to $76,000 over an 80-day period, although the current decline has lasted just 43 days so far.

The selloff has intensified due to significant outflows from Bitcoin spot ETFs. On November 13, U.S.-listed ETFs saw net redemptions of $866.7 million—the second-highest single-day withdrawal since their January 2024 introduction—

surpassing the previous August record

of $812.3 million. Grayscale’s Bitcoin Mini Trust and BlackRock’s

IBIT

led the withdrawals, with $318 million and $257 million redeemed, respectively.

Altogether, Bitcoin ETFs have seen $3 billion in outflows

over the past three weeks, highlighting a broader move to reduce risk as investors pivot to cash, bonds, and gold amid economic uncertainty.

This wave of capitulation has coincided with increased interest in altcoin ETFs.

Newly launched Solana and XRP tracking products

have attracted more than $500 million in combined inflows since their debuts, in stark contrast to the outflows from Bitcoin and

Ethereum

funds. For example, the Canary

XRP

ETF drew $250 million on its first trading day, the largest for any ETF launch this year. Meanwhile,

Ethereum ETFs have lost $1.2 billion

in the last three weeks, with BlackRock’s ETHA experiencing a record weekly outflow of $421 million since its inception.

Technical analysis indicates Bitcoin remains vulnerable.

The cryptocurrency is trading close to $95,000

, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 34 and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) still signaling bearish momentum. A move above $96,000 could restore bullish sentiment, but

experts caution

that ongoing institutional selling and a weakening derivatives market—evidenced by falling Open Interest—could hinder a near-term rebound.

This capitulation fits a broader trend in investor behavior. In April,

Bitcoin briefly dipped below

its 2025 realized price of $70,000, a level that has historically marked a buying opportunity. However,

the current correction lacks the liquidity support

seen in previous cycles, as ETF outflows and limited new capital have intensified the selling.

Market sentiment remains split. While

some interpret the decline as a standard correction

after a 17% drop in November and a 30% fall from October’s peak, others warn that the lack of a clear bottom could extend the volatility. “The market is testing crucial support,” one analyst commented, adding that a close below $94,000 could trigger more panic selling
