BTC price weakness & underperformance

Over the past 24 hours, Bitcoin slipped to about $109,635, underperforming the broader crypto market (−2.58%).

• Spot ETF outflows intensify pressure

On Sept 25, U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs saw ~$253–258 million in net outflows, per SoSoValue and Farside data. 

• The worst hit was Fidelity’s FBTC, which lost ~$114.8 million in a single day. 

• Notably, BlackRock’s IBIT still posted ~ +$79.7 million in inflows that day, showing divergence among funds. 

• Liquidations & technical breakdowns accelerate declines

Over the weekend, the crypto space saw ~$1.7B in total liquidations, including ~$500M in BTC longs.

As BTC breached support at ~$115,400 (Fibonacci) and ~$112,800 (30-day SMA), stop-losses and automated selling exacerbated the drop.

• Macro backdrop contributes to risk-off tone

Fed Chair Powell’s Sept 24 remarks reignited labor market and inflation fears. Investors rotated toward safety:

• DXY (dollar index) jumped ~1.3%

• S&P 500 made new highs

BTC’s 60-day correlation with S&P rose to ~0.72

(i.e., Bitcoin behaving more like a risk asset)

• Key support in focus: ~$105,000 zone

Bitcoin is now testing the $105K support level, which lies just above the 200-day EMA ($104 K).

A daily close below this could invite further losses and accelerate downside.

On the flip side, a rebound above the ~$112.8K SMA might trap short-sellers and spark relief rallies.

🔍 Additional Insights & Context

• On-chain metrics suggest exchange inflows are declining, implying holders are more reluctant to move funds to exchanges for sale. 

• The ~$115,200 mark has been flagged as a critical cost basis for ~95% of supply, so losing it increases the risk of a return toward the $105,500–$115,200 range. 

• Analysts also warn that ~$105,000 could act as a liquidity trap—if broken, cascading sell orders could intensify pressure.
