BlackRock Sees First ETF Inflow in 13 Days
ByCaroline Amosun
The Bitcoin sale from BlackRock follows a notable outflow in its Bitcoin ETF, which arrived only a day after BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF recorded a net inflow of 537 BTC, worth about $33.18 million.
The inflow, which saw BlackRock buy Bitcoin for the first time in over 13 days, had sparked speculation among market participants that Bitcoin may have found a local bottom.

According to analysts, historical trends have frequently shown a correlation between BlackRock ETF flows and Bitcoin's short-term price direction.
However, the outflow seen recently has dashed the hopes of investors who suggested that a recovery may be near for Bitcoin after the purchase BlackRock made.
Although the previous day's inflow was considered a potential bullish signal by some market watchers, the latest outflow that suddenly followed it suggests that the market is still uncertain and institutional conviction remains weak.
