BIT: Institutional fund flows turn net negative over the past month, buy-side recovery may be difficult

Odaily reports that BIT's analysis today notes that over the past 30 days, the combined capital flows from stablecoins, Strategy, and Bitcoin ETFs have turned net negative, reaching a record high of $8 billion. This indicates that institutional investors are reducing risk exposure ahead of the summer season.

Unlike the Q4 2025 period when inflows only slowed slightly, capital flows have now clearly shifted to net outflows. Without a significant positive catalyst (such as the Fed turning dovish), buy-side recovery could prove challenging.

This suggests that Bitcoin's decline from $82,000 to $62,000 may have a greater impact than its previous correction from $102,000 to $82,000. Against a backdrop of limited upside potential, short volatility strategies may still present opportunities.
