🚨 Crypto markets are in turmoil: $1.67 billion lost in a week
Institutionals continue to flee crypto. Last week brought the second largest capital outflow in 2026 — $1.67 billion. In three weeks, the market has already lost $4.21 billion, and the total amount of assets (AUM) fell to $141 billion.
📉 The main thing from the numbers:
$BTC received the worst blow of the year: $1.438 billion was withdrawn from BTC products. The price of Bitcoin fell below $73,000 for the first time in months.
$ETH is in the red: The outflow amounted to $257 million.
Who sold? The main pressure came from the USA ($1.63 billion). The anti-leader was the iShares fund from BlackRock (-$1.148 billion).
Altcoin season on pause: Interest in altcoins has faded, but #xrp (+ $20.3 million), #hype (+ $10.8 million) and $NEAR (+ $7.6 million) managed to go against the trend.
🔍 Why is everything falling?
1 Escalation around Iran: US strikes on facilities near the Strait of Hormuz have returned the market to panic mode (Risk-Off). On May 28, long liquidations reached 1 billion.
2 Whale in the dark pool: On May 27, an unknown large player secretly sold shares of the IBIT ETF for $1.29 billion. The fear index fell to 25 (Extreme Fear).
3 FUD from JPMorgan: The bank's CEO Jamie Dimon criticized the pro-crypto bill CLARITY Act, saying that it "could explode", which added uncertainty to the market.
⚠️ Summary: The fate of the market is now being decided in the Middle East. If geopolitics does not stabilize, capital outflows may be prolonged. Protect your positions! 📉
