This pattern mirrors the outflows of $1.2 billion over six days at the end of April.
The outflows coincide with a volatile week for Bitcoin and the broader crypto market, influenced by a key U.S. inflation report and the Federal Reserve meeting.

BlackRock has more than $20 billion worth of BTC and they keep accumulating…

U.S. inflation came in lower than expected, causing Bitcoin prices to briefly rise to $70,000 before falling back under $67,000 as traders took profits.
