Bitcoin remains plagued with a negative market sentiment as shown by recent indicators, including massive month-to-date outflows of $91m in just thirteen days with the outflows of the past week totaling around $57m.
These outflows are not peculiar to Bitcoin
The recent outflows in the market have not been exclusive to Bitcoin as the second largest crypto asset by market cap, Ethereum, has as well been hit with the current crypto winter, seeing outflows totalling $40.7m in the past week with a $72.3m month-to-date outflow.
Additionally, the total outflows from investment products involving virtual assets in general have gotten to $101.5m in the past week. Blockchain equities, also, have seen a total outflow of $5M within the same period.
On the other hand, despite dipping by 16% in the past 24 hours, and 37% in the past week, Solana seems to be generally having some amount of inflows regardless of how low – the asset boasts of an inflow of $0.4M the past week. Another asset that tows the same line is Litecoin with a meagre inflow of $0.2m in the past 7 days.
It’s been a rocky journey for crypto investors the past month as virtually all digital assets have been hit with the ongoing bear market. This has led to sudden capitulations and liquidations. Over $520m was liquidated from the market as BTC traded below $24k for the first time since December, 2020.
