Why are the U.S. Bitcoin ETFs bleeding?
Bitcoin ETFs closed last month and the second quarter with notable outflows amid strong demand for AI stocks, as Finbold explained. Furthermore, June saw more investors rush into Space Exploration Technologies Corp.’s (NASDAQ: SPCX) initial public offering (IPO).
BTC price outlook
Amid the notable cash outflows in Bitcoin ETFs, the flagship coin fell more than 19% over the past 30 days, trading at about $58,640 at the time of reporting.

Nonetheless, BTC’s price has retested a crucial multi-month support level amid aggressive accumulation by whale investors over the past two months, as Finbold noted. As such, the asset’s price could rebound in July if Bitcoin ETFs begin to build positions again.
